Scientists Make Ambient Music with Brain
Gizmodo has a cool article about a Connecticut scientist who has translated various MRI images of the human brain into MIDI resulting in eerie ambient 'music'. Changes in brain activity are created through the use of various stimuli and custom software allocates specific note values to different parts of the brain. Thus, when different parts of the brain are stimulated, different series of notes are triggered.
My God, this is FANTASTIC!
