This July, Matthew Oaks, recent TAP Lab graduate, presented his research at SMPC. The project title was “How Slow is Too Slow: Investigating the Breakdown of Rhythmic Grouping at Slow Tempi”. The study examined the role of tempo in determining whether sounds are perceived as grouped together or isolated in time.
