Coordination of voice, hands and feet in rhythm and beat performance

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
Interlimb coordination is critical to the successful performance of simple activities in everyday life and it depends on precisely timed perception–action coupling.

The evolutionary biology of dance without frills [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Recently psychologists have taken up the question of whether dance is reliant on unique human adaptations, or whether it is rooted in neural and cognitive mechanisms shared with other species 1, 2. In its full cultural complexity, human dance clearly has

Beat processing is pre-attentive for metrically simple rhythms with clear accents: an ERP study. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
The perception of a regular beat is fundamental to music processing. Here we examine whether the detection of a regular beat is pre-attentive for metrically simple, acoustically varying stimuli using the mismatch negativity (MMN), an ERP response ...

Sesquialtera in the Colombian Bambuco: Perception and Estimation of Beat and Meter – Extended version

open access: yesTransactions of the International Society for Music Information Retrieval, 2021
Bambuco, one of the national rhythms of Colombia, is characterized by the presence of sesquialtera or the superposition of rhythmic elements from a simple and a compound meter. In this work, we analyze bambucos from three perspectives.

Electrical brain responses to beat irregularities in two cases of beat deafness

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2016
Beat deafness, a recently documented form of congenital amusia, provides a unique window into functional specialization of neural circuitry for the processing of musical stimuli: Beat-deaf individuals exhibit deficits that are specific to the detection ...

Feeling the Beat: Premotor and Striatal Interactions in Musicians and Nonmusicians during Beat Perception [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Neuroscience, 2009
Little is known about the underlying neurobiology of rhythm and beat perception, despite its universal cultural importance. Here we used functional magnetic resonance imaging to study rhythm perception in musicians and nonmusicians. Three conditions varied in the degree to which external reinforcement versus internal generation of the beat was required.

Preferred Tempo and Low-Audio-Frequency Bias Emerge From Simulated Sub-cortical Processing of Sounds With a Musical Beat

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2018
Prior research has shown that musical beats are salient at the level of the cortex in humans. Yet below the cortex there is considerable sub-cortical processing that could influence beat perception.

Self-organized Pattern Formation of Whole-body Action-perception Coordination: A Study of Street Dancers and Non-dancers

open access: yesBIO Web of Conferences, 2011
The aim of this study was to investigate whether whole-body action-perception coordination is governed by dynamical principles using basic street dance movement.
