Hirnmusik / Brain Music

Hirnmusik (Brain Music) is a series of art works about musical imagination. Simon Grab has been researching for answers in the fields of neuroscience and technology, musicpsychology, psychiatry, philosophy and literature.

How does imagined music sound? Which potential have such inner compositions? Which musical perspectives can we develop? Could we somehow connect the music in the head, so we can hear it in the loudspeaker? Will it it soon be possible to make imagined music audible by neurotechnology?
