Rhythmic Data Science

Rhythm is everywhere, from how we walk, talk, dance and play to telling stories about our past and even predicting the future. Rhythm is key to how we interact with our world. Our heartbeat, nervous system, and other bodily cycles work through rhythm. As such, rhythm is a crucial aspect of human action and perception, and it is in complex interaction with the world's cultural, biological and mechanical rhythms. At RITMO, they research rhythmic phenomena and their complex relationships with the rhythms of human bodies and brains. In the talk, Alexander will present examples of how they record, synchronize, and analyze data of complex, rhythmic human behavior, such as real-world concerts.
