EEGSynth is a hardware platform and codebase designed for real-time sonification and visualization of EEG, ECG, and EMG for artistic and educational performances. It is developed collaboratively by neuroscientists, programmers, and artists, featuring a modular design and open-source architecture. The project aims to enhance electronic music performances and requires further development in areas such as signal processing and Python expertise.
