So he compared the earlier neural data to sales【C14】_____of the songs from 2007 to 2010, and found that the neural data did seem to【C15】_____how popular they would become.
This pop music experiment is just the beginning in Berns’ broader【C16】_____to better understand how cultural trends【C17】_____.
"I want to know where ideas come from, and why some of them become popular and【C18】_____don’t. It’s ideas and the way that we think that determines the【C19】_____of human history.【C20】_____, I’m trying to predict history, " Berns said in a press release.
