Scientists have created a technique that dramatically improves the performance of musicians.  The system - called neurofeedback - trains musicians to clear their minds and produce more creative brain waves, states the BBC. "Neurofeedback monitors brain activity through sensors attached to the scalp which filter out the brainwaves. These filtered brainwaves are then 'fed back' to the individual in the form of a video game displayed on a screen. The participant learns to control the game by altering particular aspects of their brain activity. " Full article here: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/health/3091595.stm
