Excited to share my latest paper with Martin Clayton and @tuomaseerola.bsky.social on cross-cultural differences in rhythm pattern perception, focusing on Hindustani (North Indian) musical rhythms. www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.... #musicpsych @musicpsychologylab.bsky.social
The Effect of Rhythm Cycle Length, Cultural Familiarity, and Musicianship on Learning and Recall of North Indian Rhythmic Patterns
The study explores the effect of the length of rhythmic cycles, familiarity, musicianship, and rhythmic structure on the perception of long rhythmic cycles of North Indian Classical Music (NICM). W...

Happy to be a part of this cross-cultural research on the perception of tension in harmonic intervals. www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.... #musicpsych
The perception of tension in harmonic intervals across Indian and Western listeners: the roles of psychoacoustics and musical expertise
A fundamental task for research on music cognition is to pinpoint the exact roles of nature and nurture in the perception of consonance/dissonance, i.e., the relative agreeableness and stability ve...

Delighted to share our latest research on consonance. We asked participants from India and UK to rate how “tense” different harmonic intervals sound. We found that musicians across both cultures agreed almost perfectly on which intervals feel tense or relaxed, however, ....
Participating in #ICMPC18 online and watching the winning papers of the conference by @harinlee.info and Lalit Mohan. Both making some great contributions to #musicscience #musicpsychology and moving beyond WEIRD.

Had a great time presenting my work on chunking and memory, as well as the effect of cycle length in cross-cultural rhythm perception @rppw.bsky.social Both of these talks explored long and complex temporal patterns in North Indian classical Music. With: Martin Clayton & @tuomaseerola.bsky.social
Lovely time presenting my work on temporal learning of North Indian Classical Rhythmic Patterns at #SysMus25
@nashraa.bsky.social gave a presentation today at #SysMus25!! Excited to see that familiarity, length and non-isochrony affects the temporal learning of North Indian Rhythms! #musicscience
A great initiative by our lab members. #openresearch #openscience is what we need ❤️
Our PhD students @hazelvanderwalle.bsky.social and @kirtsconnor.bsky.social started Durham University’s @reproducibilitea.org journal club! Based in the Music Department, our journal club hopes to facilitate discussion about #OpenResearch practices across disciplines, from the sciences to the arts
Dear all, After a long hiatus, we are excited to announce the re-launch of our monthly events, starting with our first session (online via Zoom) on December 3rd, from 12:30 to 1:30 PM GMT.
I'm proud to announce a new textbook for #musicscience titled "Music and Science: A Guide to Empirical Research". It covers methods in music psychology, empirical research, #openresearch & music computation in 298 pages. For details, see doi.org/10.4324/9781.... Codes at tuomaseerola.github.io/emr/
Would you like to play an online game on Auditory Memory for Indian Rhythms? I am looking for musicians unfamiliar with Indian music to participate in this fun study. You will get a score on completion. 🤓 #musicpsych Click to participate: durhamuniversity.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_...
