Musicians and
the power of
Social Media
Networks
Social
networking sites
are being used
in ways that
were not
originally
envisaged. It’s
no surprise that
bands and
musicians are
trying to
harness the
viral power of
Twitter. Music
is a big part of
Twitter’s
content.
Recently the
little known
band Moonalice
staged several
concerts on
Twitter and has
seen some
impressive
results using
Twitter as a
platform.
Moonalice got
3,000 downloads
and nobody
outside of
Silicon Valley
has even heard
of them. Imagine
what would
happen if a
major band or

Musical Curiosities
Music that makes
you dumb
CalTech grad
student named
Virgil Griffith
has conducted an
interesting
(albeit somewhat
unscientific)
study relating
music
preferences with
SAT scores. The
SAT Reasoning
Test (formerly
Scholastic
Assessment Test)

Virgil's study
show that the
"smartest"
students'
favourite
musician is
Beethoven, with
an average SAT
score of 1371,
and at the other
end of the
spectrum is Lil’
Wayne, with an
average score of
889....more
