The study was conducted fully remotely. The stated objective of the collaboration was to answer the question “How do our brains respond to interactive meetings & presentations?”. The content presented was either on “The Harmonic Series” or “Artificial Intelligence in Music” (AI). Participants were split into Groups 1-5 in order to counterbalance delivery order and control for order effects.
