    Neural Dynamics of Creative Movements During the Rehearsal and Performance of “LiveWire"

    by Maxine Annel Pacheco-Ramírez, Mauricio A. Ramírez-Moreno, Komal Kukkar, Nishant Rao, Derek Huber, Anthony K. Brandt, Andy Noble, Dionne Noble, Bryan Ealey, Jose L. Contreras-Vidal

    This report contains a description of physiological and motion data, recorded simultaneously and in synchrony using the hyperscanning method from two professional dancers using wireless mobile brain-body imaging (MoBI) technology during rehearsals and public performances of “LiveWire” - a new composition comprised of five choreographed music and dance sections inspired by neuroscience principles. Brain and ocular activity were measured using 28-channel scalp electroencephalography (EEG), and 4-channel electrooculography (EOG), respectively; and head motion was recorded using an inertial measurement unit (IMU) placed on the forehead of each dancer. Video recordings were obtained for each session to allow for tagging of physiological and motion signals and for behavioral analysis. Data recordings were collected from 10 sessions over a 4-month period, in which the dancers rehearsed or performed (in front of an audience) choreographed expressive movements. A detailed explanation of the experimental set-up, the steps carried out for data collection, and an explanation on the usage are provided in this report.

  • Exploring American and Italian consumer preferences for Californian and Italian red wines

    by Luisa Torri, Ann Curtis Noble, Hildegarde Heymann

    Background: To increase the market share of Californian wines in other countries, wine preferences need to be explored in potential markets. This work studied the preferences of American and Italian consumers for red wines produced in California and Italy, focusing on wines made from the same varieties in each location. Descriptive analysis and consumer preference tests were performed.Results: Americans scored each of the Californian wines significantly higher in preference than the Italian wines. In contrast, the Italian consumer preference scores for many Italian and Californian wines overlapped. By external preference mapping of the American consumer segments, the ideal flavour of one cluster was closest to the Californian Zinfandel, Merlot and Syrah, which had the ‘most balanced’ flavour profiles. Another cluster of Italians also preferred the Californian wines. In addition, one Italian cluster was driven by a dislike of the leather, band‐aid and medicinal aromas of the Italian Merlot and Refosco.Conclusion: The results provided information that can contribute to wine marketing research necessary for successfully exporting Californian red wines to Italy and vice versa.© 2012 Society of Chemical Industry
