Sound / Research
Fabi Cenci's (noizzed) research lab: how rhythm interacts with perception, movement and creative states.
Research lines
DANCEFLOOR
DJ sets as narrative. Reading space and time. The dancefloor as field of observation: music as physical and collective experience.
SOUND
Music production and rhythmic experimentation: techno, breaks and textures as sonic research material.
PROCESS
Teaching electronic music and applied creative processes, from studio to classroom. Artist development.
STRUCTURE
Label management, curation and sustainable ecosystems: how independent industry organizes to circulate.
[applied neuroscience]
How neuroscience enters music
The lab investigates how the brain processes rhythm, frequency and movement — and returns that as method for composition and sets.Rhythm & cognition
How the brain predicts and synchronizes with the pulse: groove, entrainment and the body's response to time.
Frequency perception
Timbre, texture and spectrum: how the auditory system decodes sound and how that guides production choices.
Creative states & improvisation
Attention, flow and improvisation: how to create conditions for the creative state in the studio and live.
