Music is a form of art, which is from the brain and simultaneously affects the brain. To great research interest, the relationships between music and human have been concerned in both science fields and art fields. The electroencephalogram(EEG) can monitor brain activities, and the brainwaves are similar with music in signal format. Since they are both the results of the brain activities, they would obey the same laws. The Key Laboratory of NeuroInformation of Ministry of Education discovered that they obeyed the same scale-free law. Therefore, we can use it to establish the scientific relationship between brain signal and music.

This research was reported by many scientific media around the world, such as China Central Television, Chinese Acedemy of Science, Time, Wired, Scientific American. Brain music may have great influence on clinical application such as monitoring, neurofeedback.
