An octopus learned to play the piano: an incredible experiment by a musician

According to glavcom.ua: A musician and blogger, Matthias Kranz, decided to have some fun and teach an octopus to play the piano. This experiment turned out to be very interesting and successful. Matthias tried to teach the octopus to play the piano by creating a special musical instrument and teaching methods for it. In six months, Takoyaki, whom Matthias called his second musician, learned to play the piano and performs together with him.

This experiment is yet another proof of the high intelligence of octopuses, capable of learning and evolving. However, as the example of dog cloning shows, the outcomes of such genetic experiments are not always predictable.
