40hz, Locality and Non-Locality
This text originates from an in-depth exploration of the potential of 40 Hz, initially observed as a frequency capable of influencing human perceptual, cognitive, and emotional functioning. The interest in this frequency concerns not only its possible practical

40Hz – Advancing the Research: From Entrainment to Correlation
The upcoming edition of 40Hz represents a natural continuation of the work initiated during the first cycle of residencies. While the core objective remains the refinement and deepening of the artistic and musical outcomes already explored, a parallel research track will focus on improving the precision and interpretability of the neuroscientific measurements collected so far. The first edition demonstrated a clear and reproducible effect: when a strong and spectrally clean 40 Hz component is embedded in music, many listeners exhibit measurable neural entrainment in the gamma band. This establishes an important baseline. It shows that 40 Hz can reliably interact…
