Thinking the Music and Write it Directly

Hi-tech channel from Euronews has just published a small report about a "new way of thinking" the music. This research group predicts that in a near future, using the BCIs, will be possible  to “think” directly the music onto the page, without having to write it down.

Pianist Francesco Prode is wearing a neural sensor on his head, which picks up his brainwaves and sends them to a laptop. In front of him is a Kinect motion sensor of the kind used in video games. As he passes his hand in front of the device, just like an orchestra director, the pianist activates the reproduction of a fragment of piano sound previously recorded by a computer.
