Brain Computer Music Interface

[dotvoxel]

Keep up the good work man. This is freaking awesome.

However this is an old video. Where is your project now ?

Did you improve it ?

Why is he calling out the note if he is just trying to play a note using only his want for the note. A computer program is supposed to be running in the background that understands what note(s) he wants to play.

It's a good start for live music composition. With more power you'll just have to think about a sound of any instrument, and the computer will recognize it. (simply by programing a ''tought bank'' matching all the possibilities of the program. exemple: it asks you to thing about a piano, records the brain wave and thats it. It has to be perform for every instruments, and individual notes. then individual users)

Then we'll be able to compose. live from our thoughts...Can't wait to live this!

@Yanarchist

That would be totally awesome, but I think what will come sooner is the ability to control potentiometers with brain waves.

I think this can be trained using a simple oscillator and then adapted for controlling almost every aspect of a (VST) synth / Ableton Live...

Look mom, no hands!

[dunedust2008]

what the fuck he just speaking the words.... try with not speaking any words... then it will be great....

[djaq000arkadian]

hoping we will have this kind of using our brain to control the sequence and and synths ... it might be better on live performance while you are playing piano or a synth haha

[Rareamos]

May be amazing make music with that controller, and the computer, sound difficult, i dont know if that is that.

[tjamassey]

Kinda slow making a tune though. Good for the disabled. Try an Emotive systems device.

[syturvy]

Great stuff... I actually thought this up today and found you by googling it.

[myyowtoobaccount]

yeah he looks pretty angry

[aqaspecification]

yeah but like how are you making it do that? are you imagining the sound or is it just like you can control it by feeling angry or something?

[keysersozeh]

in the future as you smart peopke will have developed this system.. will people have to train there concentration to get better and better or am i looking at it wrong?

[anarchistcinema]

It's ERP recognition. There's a paper on it. Actually, there's loads of papers on it.

[zapp10304]

look like sound recognition ??

[mrcvxxi]

i love this concept, the possible applications are endless. However, I can already hear people at live performances... "man! all he does is sit there behind the laptop and think"

[me24061]

i am very interested in the BCI field. I am wondering where can I get the eeg equipment to read the waves. And is it expensive? Appreciate your help

[lydiahopper]

Excellent! Very very cool

[amazinnblazin]

you are on the wave of the future and the edge of reality, outstanding!

[Gritchotron]

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[anarchistcinema]

I'm writing the experiment up for publication and the paper will include some code and a description of the method.

[miserloujones]

Cool! Can I take a look at the source code?

[yaxu]

Nice one!

[bones6868]

Well done Mick. Fuckin' ace.

This could be a really useful tool as a great communication device for anyone who is unable to talk for various reasons. Good luck with future tests.

ps; Like the comment about the hair.

[lightfunk]

Just incredible. Music in the future is going to be weird and cool.
