NeuroKnitting Beethoven celebrates the 250th anniversary of the great composer<br />
Ludwig van Beethoven by re-imagining his music through the creative application<br />
of brain waves and knitting. In a classical music concert, we hear the interpretation<br />
of the composer’s piece by a musician. What if we could also see and manifest in<br />
the knitting processes the musician’s state of mind when performing?<br />
NeuroKnitting Beethoven project re-visits Beethoven’s music by offering a novel<br />
experience of classical music at the interface between neuroscience, music, and<br />
media art. During the concert, we recorded the brain waves of a pianist (in Seoul<br />
we recorded Buddist monk’s brain waves), which affected Circular Knitic’s (our circular<br />
knitting machine) pattern and knitting speed. The first one is composed of the<br />
peaks of attention level, and the second corresponded to the meditation state. In<br />
other words, the higher was the attention, the denser was the pattern. And higher<br />
was the meditation level, faster knitted the machine. And all these processes were<br />
in real-time and took place simultaneously.<br />
