| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this study project, we investigated neural and psychological processing affected by sensory and somatic factors in artistic expression and appreciation, using psychological experiments including 3D motion capture system, brain modulation by a transcranial direct-current stimulation, and functional brain imaging methods including EEG and fMRI. In psychological study, we conducted experiments examining aesthetic evaluation, attractiveness cognition, and multimodal sensory integration, related with artistic expression and appreciation, and obtained lots of findings which is to advance experimental aesthetics. Moreover, using a tDCS, we found that aesthetic evaluation could change positively and negatively by stimulating frontal and somatomotor areas in human brain and lasted in next day. Furthermore, using a fMRI, we studied relation between brain functional connectivity measured by resting-state brain, and human aesthetic sense related with artistic expression and appreciation.
