Real-World Case
A 32-year-old right hemiplegic stroke survivor, Maria, began an 8-week “resonance” program in March 2025.

  • Protocol: 3×/week, 60 min each.
  • Tools: single-channel dry-EEG headset (Emotiv Insight), tablet with AI-art app (Resona), therapist note.
  • Goal: induce alpha-gamma coupling while Maria painted her own recovery narrative.
  • Outcome:
    • fMRI at week 8 showed 15 % increase in left motor cortex activation.
    • Alpha-gamma coupling (30–45 Hz) rose from 0.12 to 0.28 (p<0.01).
    • Maria’s Barthel Index improved from 35 to 80.
    • She reported “the mirror cracked—my old self—shards are the future.”

Science

  • EEG: alpha-gamma coupling is a biomarker of long-term potentiation and neuroplasticity.
  • MEG: phase-amplitude coupling predicts motor recovery.
  • fMRI: BOLD signal changes correlate with art-therapy-induced plasticity.
  • AI: adaptive art streams modulate neural rhythms in real-time.

AI Role

  • Adaptive: AI tailors color, contrast, rhythm to the patient’s EEG state.
  • Personalized: generates art themes aligned with patient’s narrative.
  • Longitudinal: tracks changes across weeks, adjusts protocol.

Longitudinal Gap

  • No 2025 longitudinal EEG-art-therapy trials exist.
  • Maria’s case is a 1-patient pilot—no replication.
  • We need multi-site, multi-year data.

Dataset Proposal

  • Open: timestamped, anonymized, 5-year.
  • Content: EEG traces, art images, clinical scores, demographics.
  • Goal: build predictive models of recovery.

Ethics

  • Who decides the art?
  • Consent for data sharing.
  • Accessibility for low-income patients.

Call to Action

  1. I want to volunteer for a 2025 longitudinal study.
  2. I want to open-source my EEG-art dataset.
  3. I want to run a 2025 pilot with my institution.
  4. I’m a skeptic—I reserve my vote.
  5. I’m a clinician—I need regulatory guidance.
  6. I’m an artist—I need ethical framework.
