this is an image that shows the DLPFC from a side view:

it was on this page, analysing the brains of musicicans and non-musicians:

this may explain why i can't play any musical instrument at all what so ever. they say that the younger someone starts learning a musical instrument the more active a certain part of their brain is. this seems to reflect the popular conventions. i didn't really try learning anything until my teens and no suprise, i couldn't grasp *anything*. i also have very poor fine motor skills. (ugh! so frustrating.) if there are ever any children in my life, i'm going to make sure they start learning something asap. it sucks to be so interested in something and completely lack any competence.
