Subject: FLICKER 2.0<P>FLICKER 2.0<P>Goal:<BR>
Brainwave spectrum emmitted while watching flicker translated into sound.<P>Set-up:<BR>
test subject-asian american female<BR>
IBVA<BR>
Madrid flicker video sample<BR>
MAX interface<BR>
SuperCollider to emulate sounds using algorithmic functions<P>*Test A<BR>
emulation of spectrum detected by volume level changes in pink noise<P>Result:<BR>
- -slight building of pressure in head<BR>
- -very slight nausea<BR>
- -changes in noise level in sync with horizontal lines moving across the screen<P>*Test B<BR>
set pitch to follow the dominant frequency of spectrum<P>Result:<BR>
- -pitch changes with frequency of eye movements<BR>
- -little change in sound<P>*Test C<BR>
set beat to follow dominant frequency without eye movement. set ground<BR>
frequency to constant of 200 hz. Beat frequency 200 - 460 hz.<P>Note*change in test subject to australian male*<P>- -subject fell asleep<BR>
- -little to no brainwave activity<BR>
- -little change in sound<P>Conclusion:<BR>
Changes in frequency levels too slight to create dynamic sound range.<BR>
Increase in activity of observer may create sufficient levels for more<BR>
interesting sounds results.<P><P><BR>
