He llegit a The Scientist que tres percusionistes van participar en un concert sense tocar per res els seus instruments, només amb electrodes connectats al seu cap. Es tracta d’un experiment de neurociència.
As a rapt audience watched, sounds issued from three laptops connected to the drummers by Bluetooth technology. The musicians’ brainwaves traveled through the air, triggering tones from the computers before leaping to life on the 12-foot-high screen hanging behind them.
The performance was part of an experiment designed by David Sulzer, Columbia University neuroscientist. It demonstrated Sulzer’s idea that thinking about an action could stimulate the brain in much the same way as actually carrying it out.
