We discussed the unconscious

We discussed the unconscious today (not the I-function) and found that the unconscious definitely played a role in music.  A personal example is the piano: I play better when I'm not thinking consciously about the music.  Another example that Paul brought up was a jazz ensemble, where there is no preset score, but rather, people changing to fit with other melodies.
