Music vs. Reading (3-4 min per condition)
Dataset Description
Context
This is a tiny self-experiment. The researcher collected 4-channel EEG data using
- gold-tipped wet electrodes
- OpenBCI Ganglion 4-channel development board
- Ten20 elastic EEG cap
- Bluetooth connection to Python and OpenBCI software
Content
Data was collected in 2 conditions for approximately 3 minutes (a bit over):
- Music - the researcher streamed popular music on a custom voice-controlled IoT device
- Reading - the researcher read scholarly articles about wave signal analysis
Inspiration
If there's interest in this sort of data, then I hope to make available a greatly scaled up experimental data set. This is a prototype of the process of collecting and publishing the data.
