> I think this approach to synthesizing music from neural activity is completely misguided. Perhaps I am overly cynical, but I suspect the artist himself knew it would produce noise basically, but it doesn't matter because this is the type of thing that gets attention and that's the real currency in art. Similarly, there was an analog synth module that came out a while back that was driven by radioactive decay [1]. Both of these could easily be simulated by a few lines of code and nobody could tell the difference. http://www.factmag.com/2017/01/16/geiger-counter-synth-module-video/ http://www.factmag.com/2017/01/16/geiger-counter-synth-modul...
