PSYCH 2MP3 Lecture 13: Lecture 13
Document Summary
Looking at the mental representation of timing info: timing has both to do: what is in the stimulus and what is happening in between our ears. Serial relationships: and the relationship of them with expressive timing. Movement and timing: how our understanding of timing info is connected to the way we move, feeling the beat". The continuum of musical time (fig 6. 2 in text) Spacing of ioi"s at bottom, in ms. At top: timing in rating of beats per min. We have even spacing among milliseconds, but for the time as rate, it is not even (tempo grows exponentially to left) 500ms spacing corresponds to 120 bpm: means they"re coming twice per second where each note is 2 ms apart movement and timing: the sweet spot" of tempo varies between each person approx. 100 bpm (600 ms beat separation) is the average for where people like to tap.
