Simply unbelievable!!
I've been thinking - if this is the result of MRI brain scans, so it could be made over the images gathered from anyone, couldn't it?
In one word, fantastic! Congratulations! ^^

I am a musician, and I've always been interested in how music effects our minds, which is why I came across this video. And while that is not exactly the point of this video, I find it fascinating that you thought to do this, and incredible. You should notate and publish this! you could divide it into movements, using schizophrenic patients' brains for contrasting sections, or something like that. But enough of my rambling-this is very fascinating and incredible! Thank you for sharing.

Is it in a certain scale or just chromatic?

Most of these use a 5-tone (pentatonic) scale over several octaves. The assignment of regions to tones is arbitrary. "Brain blues" uses a slightly different scale, with a blue note added. These tracks can be rendered in any scale one can imagine.

Hm, but blues and pentatonic scale is the same now isn't it? You're not thinking of chromatic?

The pentatonic scale used is approximately C, D# , F. G, A#. The added note for the "blues" is F#. I've made tracks with chromatic scales (and random frequencies, and overtones, and...), but these are not posted in the videos.
