| Research Abstract |
We analyzed the relationship between the oscillatory components of the famous paintings such as Mona Lisa and neuromagnetic responses of the brain to elucidate the “beauty network” in the brain. First, the oscillatory components of the paintings were Fourier analyzed to obtain 1/f fluctuation. Then, neuromagnetic responses from 306 ch MEG were analyzed to obtain the responses from amygdala, orbito-frontal and superior temporal sulcus that consists of “beauty network”. For the first time, we detected the positive relationship between 1/f fluctuation and neural responses.
