"Music" is for stupids.

Radio stations use this trick to avoid the stupids zaping away while they the talk to prof mr.know

R: Mr.Know, you are the expert on global warming, you are prof at the MIT, an you hold a doctorate in chemistry, physics, astrophysics, mathematics and medicine. K: Yes thanks, and the doctorate in medicine was a piece of cake. R: Please tell us how gloval warming works K: Yes sure, solar radiation in infrared band, absorbtion .. 2minutes R: Now lets have some music K: Yes sure R: 10 minutes rick astley: "Never wanna give you up" People: .. Seems interesting, ok but what is a spectrum? R: Please tell us how global warming works K: Yes sure, to summarize what I told before on solar radiation in infrared band, absorbtion .. 2minutes The Spectrum of energy waves is a concept of .. R: Now lets have some music K: Yes sure R: 10 minutes rick astley: "Never wanna give you up" P: holy shit they interrupt Mr knowledge all the time, I throw in a CD on advanced propaganda, political tactics or how to be successful in politics and your way to the top ..

To sum this up, music does not fit a "scientific" presentation. So one understands it an listens, or one leaves the room. Did you have piano music in university while they talk about maths or charm quarks?

So music is a bad idea while providing a dry lecture. If you want music take open headphones and listen to the recorder fight of elementary school A vs. elementary school B (they call it a recorder concert), but make sure that nobody else notices a sound.

Hi What's your overall stance on Creative Commons background music in the background to make the presentation less dry? I just got a hang on cutting and I'm tempted to throw some background tune in :D I know the answer is probably "NO!" but I figured I ask anyway xD

Cheers
