Slow start to my #100papers goal for this year (not to mention that I haven't been posting any of them for accountability😬), but better late than never.

Musical imagery seems to recruit more complex neural networks than musical perception. Not to mention the surprising activation of the Wernicke's area (brain region commonly associated with language processing and comprehension). Is it involved in the syntax equivalent in music? 🤔
