There's almost always something interesting happening musically in Hamilton every day of the week but this week a new series starts at McMaster University's Institute for Music and the Mind that is on an even grander scale.

The LIVE Lab goes beyond toe tapping, using sensors to measure physical reactions to the show, and how they influence the enjoyment of both the audience and performers.

he McMaster University LIVELab will be kicking off a series of concerts tomorrow, that will also act as a science experiment. The one of a kind facility will host six musical groups who will interact with the audience throughout the performance. One of the goals is to figure out why listening to live music is different than listening to an album at home. Musician Aubrey Wilson, who will be the first to perform, says no two concerts are the same.

The McMaster Institute for Music and the Mind is opening the doors of its ultra high-tech LIVE Lab theatre to the public for a series of six interactive concerts of jazz, experimental and world music.

Is it a lab in a theatre or a theatre in a lab?
