Erica Synths: Brainwaves Meet Patch Cables – Jachin Pousson’s BCMI Performance at the Garage

What happens when you wire up a human brain to a wall of modular synths? Erica Synths’ Garage hosts composer and researcher Jachin Pousson for a live demonstration that’s equal parts neuroscience and patching wizardry. Using Brain-Computer Music Interfacing (BCMI), Pousson manipulates a quartet of synthesizers with his EEG signals, letting his emotional state and focus modulate tempo, effects, and even the room’s lighting. This performance isn’t just a technical showcase—it’s a glimpse into the future of expressive, biofeedback-driven modular music, all set against Erica Synths’ signature backdrop of dark, exploratory sound.
