We seem to see them in music, but we also see them in other activities like athletics.
We have a project right now when surgeons are doing surgery well, we have these kind of brain signals that are consistent with hypofrontality.
So there are commonalities and it's what we're seeing with Mike too.
Just to unpack a little bit about our ability to detect a physiological signal, we spent a lot of time in the early days wiring Mike up and really seeing what the signal-to-noise is in different contexts.
When he's sitting very, very still.
When he's sitting but not still.
When he's standing and still.
When he's standing and moving around.
of the brain waves that we're recording and the heart rate measurements that we're recording.
And our ability to kind of eavesdrop on the brain.
And without being too revealing about Mike, he's got a really robust brain activity.
And we can see very clearly that he has really big alpha waves.
And...
It's given as a compliment.
Yeah, so the brain is oscillating.
There's firing neurons are firing and communicating back and forth.
And we can capture this kind of rhythmic patterns in different frequencies.
And we name them with Greek letters, delta, theta, beta, gamma, alpha.
And alpha is the rhythm that's around 10 hertz.
And the way we think about alpha is that it's part of what we call the default mode network.
