Abstract: Systems and methods for treating cognitive dysfunction are disclosed. The system can include a sound source, a light source, an input device, and a neural stimulation system that retrieves or selects a stimulation profile. The stimulation profile can include one or more musical pieces for playback and one or more rhythmic stimulation patterns having variable parameters, and time-varying signal properties that can be tuned to music. The system can select the signal properties of rhythmic stimulation based on analysis of the music, measure the physiological condition of the subject, and further adjust the rhythmic stimulation based on neural responses. The neural stimulation system can play back the selected musical pieces to direct sound toward the ear, or respond to ambient musical sounds detected by a microphone, and set the values of the variable parameters and properties of the rhythmic pattern, construct an output signal, and provide an output signal.

Abstract: Systems and methods for counter-phased binocular stimulation may include a device that determines a target frequency of a stimulation response. The device may output a first visual stimulation at a first frequency and a first phase to a first eye. The device may output a second visual stimulation at a second frequency and a second phase to a second eye. The first visual stimulation and the second visual stimulation may together produce the stimulation response at the target frequency.

Abstract: Systems and methods for visualizations of music may include one or more processors which receive an audio input, and compute a simulation of a human auditory periphery using the audio input. The processor(s) may generate one or more visual patterns on a visual display, according to the simulation, the one or visual patterns synchronized to the audio input.

Abstract: A controller for real-time visual display of music includes a music analysis module and a display control module. The music analysis module receives an audio input, determines human perceived musical structures, human felt affect and emotion as a function of the audio input, and outputs a signal corresponding to the determined structure, affect and emotion. The display control module is operatively coupled to the music analysis module and receives the signal and controls a visual display as a function thereof to express the determined musical structure, affect and emotion in a visual manner.
