Music Mind Machine in Sheffield

MMM logo

Music Mind Machine in Sheffield continues the tradition of the successful interdisciplinary research group “Music Mind Machine” to combine expertise and methodologies from music theory, psychology and computer science to investigate cognitive processes underlying the perception and performance of music. The research centre promotes interdisciplinary research on music by fostering communication between researchers and students with varying backgrounds, by supporting experimental and computational research facilities, and by creating an active research environment with opportunities for researchers (to be) at any stage of their career. The unifying denominator is the aim to improve insight in music as perceived, performed and experienced through state of the art methodologies, focusing on research with a potential for applications.
