How Sound Shapes Rhythm in the Brain
When people listen to music, slow waves of brain activity correspond to the perceived beat, allowing them to move in time.
Auditory rhythms induce slow brain waves that align with the musical beat, enabling precise synchronization of movement.
In contrast, tactile rhythms elicit brain responses to individual vibrations without generating similar beat-related fluctuations, resulting in less accurate tapping.
Sound, but not touch, effectively shapes rhythmic processing in the brain.
