Spend an interactive evening with scientists, neurologists, and artists learning about brain rhythms.
The Art and Science of Brain Rhythms brings together artists and neuroscientists to explore the fascinating intersection of sound, science, and brain rhythms, highlighting how they shape perception, memory, and health. Artist Gary James Joynes presents SONIC SUNS, an immersive audiovisual experience that examines the influence of rhythms on the brain and creative processes. Dr. Clayton Dickson delves into the role of brain rhythms during sleep in memory formation. Dr. Kyle Mathewson discusses brain rhythms in everyday activities like gaming and cycling, while Dr. Janette Mailo reveals their critical role in diagnosing and treating neurological conditions in children. Together, these talks illuminate the profound impact of rhythms across art, cognition, and medicine.
Hosted by the Neuroscience and Mental Health Institute (NMHI) at the University of Alberta in conjunction with the CONNECTIONS Exhibit currently on display at the Royal Alberta Museum.
