The research is carried out both at the Department of Electronic Engineering of University of Rome Tor Vergata and at the Department of Dance and the Department of Cognitive Sciences of the University of California Irvine. The Musical-Moods project is a Marie Sklodovska-Curie Global Fellowship funded by the European Commission under the Grant Agreement no 659434.
