Description:
This marks the fourth in the Extreme Music CD series, following the
highly successful and influential 'JAPAN', 'AFRICA', and 'WOMEN' albums.

"ItŽs only when you embark on a voyage across such a terrain that is the
present Russian Federation and its neighbouring republics - all previously
comprising the Soviet Union - that you realise the utterly relentlessly vast
scale. And not only in terms of geography, but in terms of cultural identity
and diversity. Undeniably shockingly unique and eclectic in every way, this
will be immediately noticeable upon EMFR's first hearing as it both wantonly
explodes and seduces your ears like a well-oiled finely-tuned Kalashnikov."

Fantastic 20pp booklet with full info and photos.

Does anyone have any experience or interest in EEG controlled sound (music)?

This maybe a newbie question, but what is EEG?

Thanks.

A bunch of small pads with wires on them are attached to the skull using a
gel. The wires pick up the signals from various brain centers, are filtered
and typically displayed on a monitor where a medical technician medically
interprets the results.

Medically, they look at the ration of alpha, beta, gamma and theta waves as
well as various spikes to determine
1. brain death or arousal level (used in sleep disorders clinics a lot)
2. Brain or cognitive abnormalities, such as epilepsy, etc.

Some other applications have been developed such as using EEG as a user
interface to control devices.

For my part, i'm makeing a small EEG based on an FPGA to do the signal
processing, in order to make the equipment small (palm sized) as well as low
cost.

What i'm interested in is what kind of interface might be appropriate
between this EEG device and the musical equipment, as well as possible
"compositional opportunities"

Somehow related, and maybe of some use to you is this starting link:

You know what would be interesting is to find sounds that effect the
brainwaves, and listen to those with live feedback to the eeg/sound
machine. You could get some wild stuff from that? Like a mic up
against an amp, or live camera pointed at its own monitor, but this'd
be going through your brain.

Didn't Japanese sound/noise artist Aube do something along those
lines on his 'Evocation' album? At least it's entirely composed by
using the sounds of brain waves.

Yes. IŽve never heard about EEG.
I think this is very interesting.

Where can I listen to your work?


Thanx.
