Music, by any definition, has been part of human
life since the beginning of bipedalism, and maybe even before that. Now, in our
21st Century, there is not a day that goes by without music and without the
myriad of technologies to help even an infant be exposed to this aesthetic form
of communication. Music is energy, emotion, vibration, infiltrating our sensorysystems, emotions, and whole bodies. And, with the development of current
technologies, music has a far reaching effect for composers developing
unimaginable sounds and expressions and listener seeking the best devices for
enjoying music.
Research on music in the sciences and medicine is
finally reaching the forefront of attempts to understand the brain, cognition,
physiology, and emotional behaviors. As a result of the birth of such
scientific and engineering music explorations, this unique Journal of
Biomusical Engineering has been put forth as a new platform for researchers and
philosophers in and about music in human adaptation, to publish their thoughts
and findings and reach a whole new, cross-modal audience of readers.
This
Journal especially provides an opportunity for younger researchers to present
their work in an International journal that welcomes and nurtures fresh new
ideas, thoughts, approaches to understanding the phenomenon of music in human
existence. From Music Anthropology to Musicology, from Music Composition and
expression to Music-based Treatment modalities, the Journal of Biomusical
Engineering is the only on-line, free-access publication giving voice to an
amalgam of researchers in Music and Physiologic Function, Music and Technology,
Music in Treatment, Music in Cultural Expression, Music and Emotion, Music in
history, and all areas of music in human behaviors.Read more......
