| Abstract(in English) | It is essential in “dancing to music” to synchronize body movement to music beats. However, the temporal relationship between the music beats and dancers’ movement has not been well elucidated. In the present study, we analyzed the body motion of human subjects performing the Radio Calisthenics, and examined what feature points of their movement (e.g., movement initiation/termination, velocity peak, and acceleration peak) coincided with the music beats. We found that the music beats were synchronized either with the velocity peak of tip (i.e., hand/foot) movement or with the movement termination, dependent on the type of movement. We also observed remarkable inter-subject difference in the precise asynchrony between these feature points and music beats. The present results suggest that there may be common rules for synchronizing body movement to the music beats, but that the perception (or intention) of their synchronization might be different between individuals. |
