Metaphors involving motion and forces are a source of inspiration for understanding tonal
music and tonal harmonies since ancient times. Starting with the rise of quantum cognition …

Quantum cognition emerged as an important discipline of mathematical psychology during
the last two decades. Using abstract analogies between mental phenomena and the formal …

Music composing is associated with various positive learning outcomes, but in several
countries, such as Finland, it is not part of the primary school music curriculum. There are …

Processing of recursion has been proposed as the foundation of human linguistic ability. Yet
this ability may be shared with other domains, such as the musical or rhythmic domain …

If abstraction makes mathematics strong, it often makes it also hard to learn, if not
discouraging. If math pedagogy suffers from the lack of engaging strategies, the pedagogy of …

Musical chords and chord relations can be described through mathematics. Abstract
permutations can be visualized through the Rubik's cube, born as a pedagogical device [,] …

We developed a new musical interface, CubeHarmonic, with the magnetic 3D motion
tracking system IM3D. This system precisely tracks positions of tiny, wireless, battery-less …

A general approach for the design of mild chord progressions from the n-chords (unordered
pitch-class sets of cardinal n) of ap-tonic scale was developed. Four relations between n …

A contemporary challenge involves scientific education and the connection between new
technologies and the heritage of the past. CubeHarmonic (CH) joins novelty and tradition …

The comprehension of mathematical notions can profit from the personal background of a
population of students, drawing upon their former knowledge in another field. In particular …
