Abstract

Medical technology (MedTech) involving music is increasingly being developed for various clinical and non-clinical contexts to support health and well-being. This paper focuses on two recent systems that allow users to steer their own wellness and recovery: a BCI system for emotion self-regulation in listeners (Ehrlich, Agres, Guan, & Cheng, 2019), and a motion-capture game for motor rehab (Agres & Herremans, 2017).
