The Georgia Tech Brain Music Lab is a community gathered around a unique facility combining EEG and other physiological measurement techniques with new music technologies. Their mission is to engage in research and creative practice that brings health and well-being. This talk will present an overview of the activities at the Brain Music Lab, including sonification of physiological signals, acoustic design for health and well-being, therapeutic applications of musical stimulation, and brain-body music performance.
