I have often left a milonga in Sydney wondering why the evening was so disappointing,
the venue,the music the partners all excellent, I now think I have an answere.
Recent studies at The City Collage, New York and the University of Akansas, found, if my
interpertation is correct.
When people actively engauged in listening to the same piece of music, their brains sinc up
and pulse together, particularly if the piece of music is familiar. BUT if distracted they drop out of sinc.
The CODIGOS for a milonga developed over many years are designed, in part, so a dance can get into
an aultered state of mind, to be one with the music and enjoy the ultimate milonga experiance.
I would love to know why those who choose to ignore the Codigos, behave the way they do spoiling
the milonga for others and making the above impossible?
