…we are just “gifted”!
A Smarter BrainSome people probably suspected the math whiz from grade school wasn’t in his right mind. Apparently he wasn’t—he was in his right and his left mind.I have math and music covered - I guess my doodling during company meetings can qualify for the art part(?). Posted by shanti at April 13, 2004 4:00 PMA recent study of adolescents with above-average math abilities found the right and left halves of their brains are apparently better able to interact and share information than the brains of average students.
“Giftedness in math, music or art may be the by-product of a brain that has functionally organized itself in a different way,” said Michael O’Boyle, psychologist at the University of Melbourne and one of the study’s co-authors.

Yeah I agree with the music and the math part, but i dont know much about art and its coordination with the brain…but yes definitely about music the combination of notes and playing them on different chords does need good coordination.
