This was my personal favourite talk so far at #ESCOM12York: Geoff Luck & Alessandro Ansani show a hockey stick function between performed tempo and age using a large Spotify-derived corpus. The result matches the changes in spontaneous motor tempo across life-span #musicscience #escom12

Ditto! A lot of great presentations lined up at #ESCOM12York this week!!! #musicscience #musicpsychology #ESCOM @escom12.bsky.social

Our PhD student Nashra Ahmad from Durham University delivered her study on learning and recognition of long Indian cycles well at #ESCOM12York #musicscience #musicpsychology

Ian Cross explains in his #ESCOM keynote how dominance and power has influenced (too much) our views on music and social interaction as it is an exception compared to affiliative mechanisms. He pools evidence from a wide range of disciplines. 1/2 #ESCOM12York #musicscience #musicpsychology

@kirtsconnor.bsky.social outlines a bold ambition to develop a measurement tool for emotional episodes of music, which are situated and contextualised experiences #ESCOM12York #musicscience #musicpsychology
