    This document discusses brain-computer music interfacing (BCMI) research and its goals. The main challenges are extracting meaningful control information from EEG brain scans and designing music that responds to the EEG data. The overall aims are to improve quality of life and induce altered states of mind by using BCMI to help users achieve flow and self-actualization. Key aspects that could be influenced with BCMI include problem solving, new perspectives, and staying in optimal mental states. The type of musical feedback used must have the desired effect on cognitive activity and the brain.

    Software Developement
    for Well-being (SM?)

    Self transcendence
    Self actualisation (Maslow)

    Main challenges and outcomes of BCMI research:


    1) Extraction of meaningful control information from EEG;
    2) Design of music to respond 1);
    3) Improve quality of life;

    A.Watts - Cause of stress

    Flow (Cskszentmihlyi)
    components of flow
    - thinking out of the box (problem solving)
    - altered state of mind: - new perspective;

    [ subjective ]

    Any kind of feedback


    cannot be used, but only
    those with the desired
    effect on the brain and
    the cognitive activity.
