I know this article is about google but I only had a good Apple anecdote so there you are.
I truly truly wish you the best of luck in your futile endeavor. My wife HATES all her apple products but still won't switch. Similarly, while I love Macbooks, iPhones make me sick and developing for them is like Apple…
Giovanni responded to the main thread. I asked him to respond to this specifically but he's super busy. This is his response: "He doesn't know what he is talking about. Means do not have to be a standard deviation away…
We did a randomized controlled trial :) https://www.brain.fm/pdfs/EEGFocusAnalysis.pdf It's pending publication, but it'll get there. And now we have enough info to start a double blind. Sleep one is also pending…
Hey, thanks! I appreciate that. I played classical guitar as a kid - still do. And Bach is definitely a favorite, though one of the most difficult. You just know he composed those lute pieces on his damned organ, where…
I didn't make up the term "emergent." AFAIK it's an established type of AI. http://chetansurpur.com/blog/2013/08/emergent-intelligence.h... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emergence#Computer_AI We're not using that term…
Ah, thanks for clarifying. Was wondering if I was going crazy.
Completely agree! We're on it. :) Definitely don't want you to be wary of the skip button. That's an important feature. You should love the music you're playing. So here's a pro-tip: as an anonymous user, play the…
So much inspiration in this thread. I mentioned this further down the page, but it's a hobby of mine to ask what music people work to. This is a goldmine for me. Thanks a lot for posting, and for trying it out. Would…
Great, so glad it's helping! Wait till you get the headphones... a whole new level. Keep me updated. I had Aaron get in touch with you but please feel free to send me any updates directly. Just my first name and…
OK fair enough, I'll see if we can get a better one then. Honest to god we just used a standard one we got over a decade ago, and customized it with our name. We might have even gotten it off of legal zoom or something.…
This is actually great feedback. I can definitely create some trance, house, etc. There is techno/electronic music already in there, but only at around 120bpm, and probably won't be as bass-intensive or dramatic as…
Hey, great question, though I'm not sure if you want the audio or neurological explanation, or both :) I'm also not sure how technical you want or how much you know already, so apologies if I'm too technical, and…
It's actually a really good result, for a number of reasons. But I'll let Giovanni respond to this later and clarify (he's the neuroscientist that wrote the paper). I apologize for the delay, he's dealing with some…
Hey, happy to answer that. Do a page find for the word "emergent" here and you should find it. I've explained it a few times, though briefly. I did a write-up of it a while back that I need to find and post somewhere.…
Thanks for the feedback, much appreciated! There is discussion about extending the trial, and I agree completely. And we're almost done with both the iPhone app and the Android app! Stay tuned :) Good point about…
It's just a standard TOS, man. Here's the Terms Of Service for Yale: I AM RESPONSIBLE FOR REVIEWING ANY WRITTEN CONFIRMATION STATEMENTS PROVIDED TO ME (ON PAPER OR IN ELECTRONIC FORM) REGARDING ANY INSTRUCTIONS,…
Hey, thanks haha, I know I shouldn't be surprised by now, now it's still funny to me that I am sending a heartfelt thanks to a one "slagfart" :)
Hey, no problem. Not trying to "prime" you here, this is just how I talk. I'm not that strategic. If you think it would help, I'd be happy to get on a call/skype? I just feel like there's some miscommunication going on…
Hey man, about to respond to your other question, but there was a similar question earlier so thought I'd just take this one first. Here's a bibliography we're still working on. More to add, but a good start so far:…
Ah, well, glad it worked then :)
Oops, thanks a lot! Logged the bug, should be fixed soon. Sorry about that.
Sure! Happy to explain it. Although I have to say I'm not sure what textbooks are saying these days. When I talk to programmers right out of college sometimes there's a bit of confusion as they talk about patterns I…
Hey, good question! Here's a bibliography we're still working on. More to add, but a good start so far: https://www.brain.fm/pdfs/ResearchLibrary.pdf We've also done our own research that is pending publication:…
Those are great! And glad you like Brain.fm as well :) To my great surprise, silence is actually the worst performer in our research and for other researchers I've talked to. check out our focus study, and also if you…
