No way this is real. It would certainly be possible to play one note at a time, maybe even a three note chord SLOWLY, but THIS? No no no. Ridiculous.
there is no explanation and it leads people to thinks that this guys is controlling each and every note that is being played. I bet my life on it that is NOT the case (here).. it is extremeeeely hard to control your brain waves and requires INSTENSE and long concentration periods.. which makes it quite unlikely to achieve such speed and accuracy in reading and responding even if they had the technology!
@shegoeslocofoco this software that "compose" the music, as the "scientist" explains, as far as I can see is Max/MSP. If I were to make a simple guess without suggesting it is absolutely right, I'd say at best he is controlling some preset data streams, MIDI streams maybe, that are somehow converted to motorized output strumming the piano strings.. but the only direct influence is on the speed/loudness as far as we can see.
The test subject is actually not playing the piano in this instance. Instead he is controlling the tempo of the music (the speed) via his concentration levels. The technology to create an interface between the players imagined finger movements and a piano is here, yet the device would not be able to be played with this speed or accuracy.
Glad I could clear this up!
"a reseach student who should be doing his won work"
I wish they would explain more, like why is he playing mozart and not mary had a little lamb, does he have advanced piano skills already or what? I agree with this video being a fake.
I can't wait for this technology to become a reality. I don't think we can accurately analyse and process EEG signals at this speed just yet, but the fundamental principle of what is going on in this video is real and it's astonishing.
well, take every note of a scale, take every chord and ask a person to imagine how it sounds, take that EEG information and use each different reading for each note and chord, then tell MAX msp to assign the note to the in-putted data.
Ok, let me explain, when we think about different notes, out brains give off a distinct frequency, so all that is happening, is that he imagines playing a note, or chord, the data is then received as a brain wave. That brainwave is then sent into a program called MAXMSP, and a patch is created that listens to the correct shape of wave for a specific note and applies a command to the characteristic of the wave form.
@guypie Is there more on this topic? I wonder is the guy imaging the notes one by one, as if he would actually move fingers on the keys or rather buy reciting note frequencies in hiss brain as if he would be humming it?
@guypie Is there more on this topic? I wonder is the guy imaging the notes one by one, as if he would actually move fingers on the keys or rather by reciting note frequencies in hiss brain as if he would be humming it? And what about polyphonic note playing...
@guypie EEG's aren't that accurate, and that isn't quite exactly what is going on in the brain when you think of a note or chord; this is much more abstract. It's more likely he's simply triggering pre-composed sound clips and altering the parameters (the initial bang, loudness contours and perhaps even tempo) with the data.
@SmallRubberFeet However, if your train your brain over time to give off a stronger signal for each note then with patience and the advance of technology I think this would be possible
@lardhat I own an emotive Epoc, and using max msp its actually possible to do something like this, less elaborate but with enough work and research on a specific person there's no reason why you wouldn't be able to do it.
@lardhat maxwell cade did something very similar although more basic 20 plus years ago.
using brain waves to play music, using a mind mirror eeg machine he developed. try reading michael hutchinson for more or maxwell cade himself. unfortunately he is now dead.
