Footnote 5

5. Conjecture: If I can find and shut down all speech centers of the brain, I suppose we could still detect a conscious, alert person who is unable to think in a verbal fashion. And what if the left brain is shut down? Does the person remain conscious but at a "lower" level? Perhaps he cannot read nor do math but could negotiate an obstacle course.

What kind of music would he make?
