This study uses fMRI to examine neural dynamics during jazz improvisation, finding distinct brain network patterns for different improvisation modes and their cognitive mechanisms.

A Kuramoto model of self-other integration across interpersonal synchronization strategies

The paper proposes a Kuramoto model to explain interpersonal synchronization strategies through self-other integration, showing how coupling strengths between and within units determine different synchronization patterns.

Musical interaction is influenced by underlying predictive models and musical expertise

This study shows that differing predictive models between musicians during joint tapping reduce synchronization but allow recovery, with instrument expertise influencing strategies.

The sensation of groove is affected by the interaction of rhythmic and harmonic complexity

This study investigates how rhythmic and harmonic complexity influence the sensation of groove, finding that rhythm has an inverted U-shaped effect while harmony modulates rhythm's impact on pleasure and movement desire.
