Giulia CREMASCHI TROVESI, Bergamo, ITALIA
And
foreign member F.I.M., Irina MIROSHNIK, Ph. D. (Moscow-Kharkov).
for the
first time in Ukraine and Russia has told about the original
method of a musictherapy. She has shown magnificent videofilms
which have convincingly proved unique opportunities of her method
for treatment of children with very heavy diseases of hearing,
bodies of movement, central nervous system.
The
international Symposium " the Musictherapy of 21 centuries
" passed in the INTERNATIONAL CHILDREN'S MEDICAL CENTRE
"EVPATORIA" where medical and psychological
rehabilitation of children from zones of anthropogenous pollution
(Chernobyl) is traditionally carried out. Professor TROVESI has
agreed to carry out a session of a musictherapy with children
from Chernobyl. The session passed on a stage of a conference
room at the presence of the deserved doctor of Ukraine, the
director the INTERNATIONAL CHILDREN'S MEDICAL CENTRE "EVPATORIA"
Gennady Ljamkin, leading experts from various cities of Ukraine,
Russia, Cuba. In a session took part the assistant of professor,
Stefania BATTARINO (dott. Sse., Musicoterapista F.I.M., Cagliari,
ITALIA). In a session participated simultaneously five children
of different age (from 6 till 14 years), suffering hearing
disorder, sight and other diseases, one adult. Children did not
know the Italian language. Professor Giulia CREMASCHI TROVESI,
using the original method of the nonverbal communications, has
managed for one hour not only to come into full contact and
mutual understanding with children and adults, but also has
received appreciable psychological and therapeutic effects.
The method
of professor Giulia CREMASCHI TROVESI has received a high
estimation and a recognition of all experts. In the general
opinion of participants of a symposium the method of professor
Giulia CREMASCHI TROVESI represents doubtless interest, demands
the further studying and a deepening. Some information on a
method of a musictherapy of professor Giulia CREMASCHI TROVESI
can be received in the Internet to the address

Alongside
with a method of professor Giulia CREMASCHI TROVESI high interest
and support of participants of the International Symposium "
the Musictherapy of 21 centuries " was caused with the
method of a synergic Interactive Musictherapy developed by Irina
Miroshnik and Evgeny Gavrilin (Russia - Ukraine). Authors of a
method have given the developed scientific report, demonstration
of educational videofilms, and then, in end of a symposium, Irina
Miroshnik has given small, but a delightful concert УSynergic
musicФ.

The
way of treatment with help of musical sounds is known to mankind
thousands years. In China, Egypt, Ancient Greece, Rome already in
the first theoretical doctrines developed by great philosophers
of an antiquity music it was considered as a kind of activity (that
is practice) simultaneously close to a science, craft
and a religious cult.
Music
was represented and as the model of the world promoting knowledge
of its laws, and as the strongest magic means of influence for a
nature, for the person (doctoring, formation of moral, civil
qualities etc.).
аHowever
as the independent branch of knowledge and area of scientific -
practical activities a musictherapy began to be formed only in 19-20
century, that, in our opinion, is caused by the following major
factors:
1.
аFormation of the theory of music.
2.
аFormation of the universal musical culture embodied in styles
of the Baroque, the Classicism, Romanticism, Impressionism, New
Age and so forth.
3.
аDevelopment of psychology and a psychotherapy.
4.
аAcceleration of social information processes.
5.
аDevelopment of means of record and reproduction of music.а
In
second half of 20 centuries the musictherapy actively starts to
be applied in Europe, USA, Australia, Japan and other countries
of the world. Among the theoretical schools which have received
wide popularity it is necessary to allocate Juliette Alvin in
Great Britain, Paul Nordoff and Clive Robbins in the United
States, Shvabeа in Germany, Julia Cremaschi Trovesi in Italy. In
the Anglo-Saxon countries and the most part of Europe theoretical
line Alvin-Nordoff-Robbins-Cremaschi today prevails.
Last
decade on advanced positions the Italian school of a musictherapy
(professor Giulia Cremaschi Trovesi) in which on the basis of the
phenomenological approach effective technologies of a
musictherapy are developed leaves: "Dialogo Sonoro",
"Corpo Vibrante " etc. (we shall not detail now this
method because today the unique opportunity to get acquainted
with it directly in an author's statement is represented to us).
In
our report the basic attention is given developed and patented by
us in Russia to an original method of "the Synergic
interactive musictherapy".
а
As
it was marked above, in culture of ancient civilizations music
was represented as the model of the world promoting knowledge of
its laws, and as the strongest magic means of influence for a
nature and for the person. The similar approach is determined by
us as syncretism, that is indivisibility of a science of
religion of art which was characteristic for ancient
civilizations, and then with some transformations was transferred
in medieval culture under a dominant of religion.а
Renaissance
has given the first powerful push which has shaken foundations of
syncretic culture of Middle Ages. And huge value in this
progressive process has art of Italy. In musical culture is,
first of all, - great D. Zarlino (1517-1590) which in "
Establishments of harmony " about modes has opposed the
medieval doctrine new system with two basic inclinations - a
major and a minor. The major and a minor have generalized
historically previous to them modes, but in too time were an
embodiment essentially new modes the organizations which embodied
changes happened in the most human perception of the world. As
against medieval experts in an aesthetics, Zarlino thought, that
the world is full of harmony, and objective harmony of the world
is commensurable with harmony of human soul. In our terminology
such Renaissance musical thinking is defined as the theory of
amphoteric character of a major and a minor which is closely
connected to becoming active - personal thinking and
consciousness of the person. We shall note, that as against
disharmonious dialectic thinking of Hegel, in a harmonious
amphoteric trinity of contrast of a major and a minor are not
antagonistic, but complementary. Therefore, contrary to prophecy
of Hegel about " disharmonies in art " in classical
music arises and it is kept, as a vivifying spring of harmonious
thinking and consciousness, amphoteric unity (but not dialectic
struggle!) Complementary contrasts: a major and a minor, discords
and concords. We shall remind, that in the aesthetic concept
Hegel believed, that in process of development of a history
harmony gives up the place to collisions, to disharmonies,
antagonisms and this process is irreversible. As against this
position , we believe, that the antagonism of thinking inducing
the appropriate processes in art, is only a stage postsyncretic,
" antagonistic culture " which is naturally replaced by
a stage of "eclectic culture ". At the present stage of
eclectic culture during mutual mixing arts, and also a science
and religion, there is a synthesis and crystallization of the new
harmonious system based on a principle of a synergy of a science
- religions - arts.аа
However,
following logic of a statement, we should return to 16 century.
So, major and minor triads were the central elements of two main
modes of the European music. As is known, the basis of the
organization of chords in amphoteric major - minorа musical
system - is concords triads. Zarlino has given the first theory
of triads (1558), having named their "harmonies".
Subsequently they it was designated as a triad. Taking into
account, that the trinitarian paradigm having the preconditions
in religion, art and a science, is considered by us as a trance -
a cultural phenomenon of evolution of thinking and consciousness
of the person, it will be pertinent to recollect, that I.Lippius
(1612) and A.Verkmejster (1686-87) believed in 17 century, that
the harmonious triad symbolizes a sacred Trinity. Thus, from our
point of view, in epoch of the Renaissance in musical culture
rudiments of ampthitrinitarian harmonious thinking were generated.
In
the world divine ampthitrinitarian harmony of the personality has
begun to sound.
From
our point of view, such ampthitrinitarian thinking not only was a
source of self-development of music and the European culture as a
whole, but, having opened a rich palette of means of musical art
expressiveness, has allowed great geniuses of Renaissance to
realize and express in the products the personality as the active
- creative, target beginning, and his amphoteric character, as a
source of self-organizing and development at natural, social and
spiritual levels of life. So in doctrine Zarlino the
ampthitrinitarian transcription of the person in new system of
tonalities and musical harmony has involuntarily come to pass. We
believe, that Renaissance in Italy was preleaks of the future
postindustrial personalistic culture.
Initial
syncretism of sciences - religion - arts by means of
creative activity of copresent persons - great poets, artists,
musicians, it is finally broken open in epoch of Education and,
during 17-18 centuries, it is gradually transformed to antagonism
which in 19 century provides emancipation of art and a science
from religion and their self-determination in culture of an
industrial society of 20 centuries. Then there comes a stage of
synthesis (the modern period of pluralistic eclecticism) which as
we believe, in an ideal of postindustrial personalistic culture
will be resolved in a synergizm of a science - religions - arts.а
The
word "synergy" and word derivative of it "synergism"
of the Greek origin (from the Greek word synergeia) also
means joint action, that is assistance of various forces or
subjects in such a manner that action of one strengthens action
of another. Hence, when we speak about a synergy of a science -
religion - arts in postindustrial personalistic culture, as a
matter of fact we speak that not losing independence, these three
components of spiritual activity of the person mutually
supplement, is mutually strengthen action each other, ennobling
the person up to a level of a harmonious Trinity. - On an image
and similarity.
This
new approach to the analysis of dynamics of culture (from
syncretism through antagonism of becoming to a synergy of a
science, religion, art) is offered by us within the framework
ofа the philosophical-psychological theory of a postindustrial
personalizm (I.Miroshnik, E.Gavrilin, 1996).
The
Syncretism, antagonism, eclecticism and a synergism are
considered by us as forming principles of culture, public and
individual life and consciousness. Accordingly, in the new
philosophical - psychological concept we allocate four types
of cultures: syncretic, antagonistic, eclectic and synergic.
We consider a modern postmodernism as bright display of dying,
amorphous, eclectic culture. The synergism - is a
principle of new postindustrial personalistic culture, forming on
our eyes.
а
Let's
remind, that in the concept of a postmodernism to which
character of a paradigm today is traditionally given, ambivalence
is one of key psychological characteristics of consciousness and
behaviour of an individual in social system. So by definition of
the known sociologist and philosopher Bauman, the sociological
theory of a postmodernism is " self-comprehension of theа modernism
" and transition to general pluralism, variety, sufficient
uncertainty and ambivalence (Z. Bauman, 1992).
Known
philosopher Merab Mamardashvili named a modern postmodernistа society
the game in mirrors, unreal sign reflection of something of
another. In this society, - wrote M.Mamardashvili, - people
of the organized happiness, which can not even despise itself,
are formed. They live in a situation of the destroyed
consciousness and the destroyed matter human".
The
arising abnormal sign space tightens in itself everything, that
to it adjoins. The human consciousness breaks up, and, getting in
a situation of uncertainty where everyone exchange winks not
that that ambiguously, but multiple-valued, the person breaks
up also: neither courage, nor honour, neither advantage, nor
cowardice, disgrace. Has no value, that at you in "consciousness"
if only the mark submitted Е
In
such pluralistic society the ambivalent individual - " the
person without properties " which is described in the novel
of Austrian writer Muzil is formed. Everything, that do it will
be poured out in any rubbish. Search for the truth or do not
search for the truth - all one - you will go on already given
ways of nonsense. Muzil' perfectly knew, - wrote M.Mamardashvili,
- that inside such situation to operate and think it is
impossible - from it important to leave.
We
express confidence, that the society of postindustrial
personalistic culture will manage to overcome pathological
ambivalence of a modern postmodernism.а
Let's note, that
in our works the principle of amphoteric determination of
development which intends for the description of a
productive, harmonious duality, characteristic for mental
processes, conditions and properties of harmoniously developing
person, and, accordingly, differentiation of these positive
phenomena from concepts and phenomena of recourse, a
pathological duality - ambivalences for the
first time is entered. Thus, dialectic HegelТs triadа is
considered by us as necessary, but not a sufficient condition of
formation of trinitarian thinking of the person. Transition from
the dialectic paradigm of thinking peculiar to the postSoviet
subject, to trinitarian is comprehended within the framework of
the ampthitrinitarian synergic model developed by us in
which the principle of amphoteric determination of development at
three mutually supplementing levels of self-organizing of complex
systems for the first time is formulated.
а
Property
of amphoteric (bifunctionl) essentially differs from antagonism,
no less than from ambivalence, and for the first time is
considered by us as fundamental property of complex systems - a
source of self-organizing and development.а
Amphoteric
character (from the Greek word amphoteros - "
both that and another ", bilateral) in the theory of a POC-THERAPY
is many-sided: necessary - possible; material - ideal; mental -
physical; subjective - objective; measurement - change; causal -
teleologic; actual - potential; man's - female, a understanding -
explanation, real - virtual etc. Such amphoteric determination is
in a broad sense considered by us as a necessary condition of
development of the person.
For
explanation of basic distinctions between amphoteric character
and ambivalence it will be pertinent to make small etymological
digression and to recollect, that the term ambivalence (from a
latin word ambo - two, both and valentia - force)
is entered by psychiatrist E. Bleuler for a designation of one of
essential attributes of schizophrenia. - "Due
to schizophrenia and defect of associative ways there is possible
a coexistence in mentality of contradictions which, generally
speaking, exclude each other. The love and hatred to the same
person can be equally ardent and do not influence against each
other (affective ambivalence). The patient in same time would
like to eat and not is; it(he) equally willingly executes that
wants also that does not want (ambivalence of will, the dual
tendency -а the ambitendency); he in same time thinks: " I
the same person, as you" and "I not such person, as you
". The god and devil, hi and farewell for him are equivalent
and merge in one concept (intellectual ambivalence) ". (E.
Bleuler. A manual on psychiatry. - Berlin, 1920, pp. 312-313).
The
main feature of a pathological duality consists that irrespective
of conditions of an environment in behaviour, thinking
statements of the patient contradicting, conflicting relations
and reactions which replace each other are observed is not
based quickly.
Thus,
as we with you understand, the postmodernism demonstrates
schizophrenias thinking and, actually, inducesа its to
individuals. Submitting to this global influence, the individual
loses ability critically to think. Getting in a situation of
uncertainty where "everyone exchange winks more that
ambiguously, his consciousness simply breaks up.
Medical
consequences of such type of culture are obvious.
However,
from our point of view, in modern crisis conditions, contrary to
the postmodernist installations which are washing away the
personality as the face traced on coastal sand, the personalistic
law of formation of health according to which increase of
a level of self-organizing of the person results in increase of
levels of her physical, social and spiritual health starts to
work. In other words, than in the greater measure the
individual is capable to reflect itself, the more realized,
responsibleа and purposeful there is a process of mental self-management
by ability to live at biological, social and spiritual levels of
life, the above a level of health of the person, family, a
society.
The synergic
ampthitrinitarian model can become a new philosophical -
psychological paradigm of public and individual life and
consciousness. As against disharmony of a dialectic triad, in
which contrast are antagonistic, the synergizm of an
amphoteric trinity is caused by that contrasts are in complementary
relations (but not identical or ambivalent). And, the arising
ampthitrinitarian transcription of a science - arts - religions
in a synergic trinity of public and individual life -
consciousnesses - timeа is process and result of creative
activity of the person in natural - socially - spiritual ability
to live.
а
аPsychological
basis of such personal activity is the supreme Love - the
mechanism of the synergic communications of complementary
contrasts. During the synergic communications at natural, social
and spiritual levels individual and social being and
consciousness the transcription of properties of copresent
persons in " another " is carried out.а
Let's emphasize,
that, as against treatment of love traditional for humanistic
psychology as mechanism of identification of contrasts (Abraham
Harold Maslow), in a new philosophical- psychological
paradigm (Miroshnik, Gavrilin) love is understood as the
synergy of the complementary contrasts aspiring to generation
harmonious third, which becomes amphoteric - " both that
and another ", that is their original transcription.
And, amphoteric determination of development gives to the
interpersonal communications a productive synergic character and
is a necessary condition of formation of harmonious trinitarian
thinking and consciousness of the person.
A
psycho-physiological basis of such activityа is the
amphoteric unity of the left and right hemispheres of a brain of
the person generating amphoteric mental images (subjective
- objective, internal - external, ideal - real etc.)
We
believe, that the ampthitrinitarian model is a basis of
functioning of a brain of the person which generates an
amphoteric image of the objective world in three measurements.
Let's explain
this thesis on simple examples.
It is known, that
on a retina of each eye one bidimentional image and as our eyes
are located on some distance from each other is created only,
they see the world under a little bit various corners (more to
the right and more to the left of the centre) and send a brain
simultaneously this dual information in both hemispheres. But the
brain from these two mutually additional (complementary) images
generates a uniform three-dimensional vision of the world,
providing us three-dimensional sight.
Similarly affairs
are and in the field of hearing. The right and left ear will
carry out in a brain simultaneously a little bit various
information as auricles have various localization (accommodation)
in space. But the brain integrates two acoustical images and
reproduces for us the stereophonic sound world in three
measurements.
These are simple
examples of functioning of the amphoteric brain generating an
image of the world in three measurements, actually open to us one
of displays of a universal principle of functioning and
development of complex systems which we determine as
ampthitrinitarian synergic model.
But if during
perception of the elementary information the brain fulfils
ampthitrinitarian model irrespective of the person, on more high
levels of the semantic analysis of the information, for
restoration of adequate work of a brain are required special
psychotherapeutic technologies.
аAs
our practice has shown, the synergic communications of
complementary hemispheres of a brain can be restored with the
help of the newest psychological technologies based on
complex interaction of arts (synaesthetic), the high
technology technologies (multimedia), spiritual Practices
а(Initialization
).
Concrete
example of such newest Psychological technologies
is the Personality-oriented
Computerized Psychotherapy (POC-THERAPY), which
major component - a synergic interactive musictherapy (SIM).
а
As a matter of
fact, a SIM it - humanitarian practice - a component of new
personalistic culture - its part, complementary to the whole.
а
Let's address to
a history of occurrence of this method.
For
the first time the method of a synergic interactive musictherapy
(SIM) was developed and patented in the Russian Federation as "
the Way of the directed regulation of a psychoemothional
condition of the person " (I.M.Miroshnik, E.V.Gavrilin,
1993).
FIELD:
medicine. SUBSTANCE: method concludes in showing audio-visual and
musical compositions to person. The compositions provide
capability of changing human condition into required one. Musical
compositions are selected which have no less than singleperiod
and constant rate, metro-rythm and mode-key within preset
composition. Musical compositions are classified by method of
expert evaluations of emotional experience caused by hearing.
Psycho-diagnostic tests are used intended for evaluation of
parameters of psycho-emotional condition. Psycho-emotional
condition of patient and musical composition required are chosen
according to values of their parameters which are evaluated by
means of the same parameters. EFFECT: improved precision;
improvedreliability. 7 cl
1.аааааа
A way of the directed regulation of a psychoemotional condition
of the person, including selection and classification of various
musical compositions by emotional colouring, and presentation to
their patient according to the required psychoemotional
condition, distinguished by that musical compositions select,
each of which models with the help of various musical means of
art expressiveness concrete, strongly pronounced and rather
constant within the framework of the given composition an
emotional condition, classification of musical compositions make
a method of expert estimations of the emotional conditions
arising as a result of listening of musical compositions for what
use the psychodiagnostic tests intended for a self-estimation of
parameters of a psychoemotional condition, and show to the
patient a musical composition which expert estimation with the
help of the given tests on the parameters corresponds to a
required psychoemotional condition.
2.аааааа
The way on the item 1 distinguished by that before presentation
to the person of a musical composition with parameters which
values correspond to a required psychoemotional condition, is
determined with values of the same parameters of his
psychoemotional condition with the help of the same tests and
show to him a musical composition with parameters which values
correspond to an initial psychoemotional condition of the person.
3.аааааа
The way on the item 2 distinguished by that between presentations
to the person of musical compositions with parameters which
values correspond to his initial and required condition, to the
person is showed with one or several musical compositions with
intermediate values of parameters.
4.аааааа
A way on the item 1-3 distinguished by that simultaneously with a
musical composition show the person a visual image which
colouring is chosen by a technique of a Simultaneous Presentation
of Sound and Color stimuluses by I.MIROSHNIK, thus in colouring a
visual image in the greater degree the colors appropriate to
emotional character of the given musical composition are
submitted.
5.аааааа
A way on the item 1-4 distinguished by that simultaneously
with a musical composition show the person a visual dynamic image, speed of
movement and - or which transformation is proportional to rate of
a musical composition during its sounding and equal to zero
during interruption of a sound.
6.аааааа
A way on the item 4-5 distinguished by that show the person a
visual dynamic image, speed of change of which color saturation
or its part is proportional to rate of a musical composition
during its sounding and equal to zero during interruption of a
sound, thus to higher sounds there correspond less sated colors.
7.аааааа
A way on the item 4-6 distinguished by that show the person a
visual dynamic image which brightness or to its part is
proportional to loudness of a sound.
аааа
Use of the given way provides the directed translation of the
patient from an actual, initial psychoemotional condition, that
is really experienced by the subject at the moment of time of the
beginning of a psycho-correction, in a required condition, that
is the mental condition determined by the psychologist (therapist)
as the purpose of video-music therapy.

The
psychological technique of a Simultaneous Presentation of Sound
and Color Stimuluses (SPSC) is developed and approved by Irina
Miroshnik in dissertational research in 1983-1986 years. In 1990
I.Miroshnik's dissertation on a theme "The personality of
the teacher as the factor of development at pupils of emotional
and figurative perception of music" was successfully
protected in Psychological Institute of the Russian Academy of
education (Moscow).аа In the dissertation the original
technique of audio-visual simultaneously representation (AVS),
which was used in our subsequent development, was developed.The
technique consists in the following: simultaneously with a piece
of music (sound stimulus) a number of various color stimuluses is
offered to the person and the following instruction is given: "
choose that color which you want to draw this music ".
Simultaneously showing musical and color stimuluses (amphoteric,
bifunctional characterа of influence) was a determinative of
revealing of psychological laws in that area where a subjective
arbitrariness was earlier assumed only.
In
dissertational research on the big sample of examinees for the
first time is proved, that there is statistically authentic law
of a choice of color stimulus on a piece of music. Ability of the
person to carry out an adequate choice of color from the offered
color palette according to emotional character of a listened
piece of music - refers to as a phenomenon of a Sound-Color
Simultaneously Representation (SCSR).
The
positions which are taken out on protection in I.Miroshnik's
dissertation on a theme "The personality of the teacher
as the factor of development at pupils of emotional and
figurative perception of music" :
1.
аааа аAt preschool and younger school age the phenomenon of
a Sound-Color Simultaneously Representation (SCSR),а that
determined as ability of the child during a simultaneous
presentation ofа a music andа some color stimuluses to carry
out the coordination of elements of color palette with an arisen
emotional condition, is exist.
2.
аааа аDevelopment of emotional perception of music and
creative imagination at children is characterized by certain age
dynamics which is shown in ability of a Sound-Color
Simultaneously Representation. In the age of from 4 till 8 years
steady increase ofа emotional responsiveness on the music,
experimentally registered in high parameters on a ability of SCSR
is observed. Then in the period since 9-11 years gradual decrease
of parameters on a ability of SCSR that is as supposes,
consequence of falling of emotional activity of perception of
music by children is marked.
3.
аааа аMusical training generally a little bit changes age
dynamics of a ability of sound-color simultaneously
representation (SCSR). However in critical for the given
phenomenon an age range (10-12 years for musical school) the
significant disorder of values of parameters on a ability of SCSR

аааа аDepending on character and a level of the personality

аThe
technique of Simultaneous Presentation of Sound and Color
stimuluses (SPSC) became a basis for creation of computer
technology "Audio -а Visual Simultaneously representation (AVS)",
which was used in computer system of interactive video-musical
therapyа "TONIC" (I.Miroshnik, E.Gavrilin, 1991-1993).
The technologyа "Audio -а Visual Simultaneously
representation (AVS)" as applied to computer creation of Video - Musical
Compositions (VMC), is directed
influencing on a psychoemotional condition of the person (Ye.Gavrilin,
I.Miroshnik, the patent for the invention of Russia, "The
METHOD OF DIRECTED REGULATION OF PSYCHO-EMOTIONAL CONDITION OF
HUMAN"; Application Number: 93039112/14, Date of Filing:
1993.07.30; Claim(s) date: 1995.04.30, Edition of International
Classification: 6; International Classification: A61M21/00 )
аIt
is important to note, that not only a way of the directed
regulation of a psychoemothional condition of the person, but
also the experimental techniques described above (audio-visual
simultaneously representation (AVS), the image of the
movement, a Simultaneous artistic image) were approved in clinic
and effectively can be applied with a view of a psychotherapy,
psychological correction.
ааа Music and
videoline automatically generated on its basis were reproduced
with the help of the personal COMPUTER, for what in 1991 (i.e.
long before occurrence of similar programs on the basis of
technology the multimedia) was specially developed a program
videomusical synthesizer.
Now we shall show
videorecording color musical dynamic compositions with which help
correction psychoemothional condition was carried out. These
compositions were automatically generated by the computer on
special algorithm. We shall notice, that this program was written
for personal computer IBM PC AT in 1990-1992 years, that is then
when all modern arsenal multimedia did not exist yet in a nature.
At that time on the personal computer was not neither sound
payments, nor powerful videocards with graphic accelerators.
" Windows " was still in wonder, and Bill Gates yet did
not begin one of richest people of a planet, and was only very
talented programmer and the businessman. Personal computers at
that time practically were not applied to work with уЁрЇшъющ
and music. However, despite of technical imperfection, the
principles incorporated in " a way of the directed
regulation of a psychoemothional condition " allowed to
achieve unique results in rehabilitation of patients by a
narcotism, alcoholics, an ill psychiatric and psychosomatic
structure.
а
( there Is
Demonstration VCD1 with compositions from TONICS)
а
So,
this way was realized by us in the first computer system of
interactive video-musical therapy of "TONIC" and
approved in the Moscow scientific research institute of the joint
venture (1992-1994). Its distinctive features:
╖
а аPresence of system of classification with which help the
space of mental conditions and properties of the person is
structured and is created his display (transcription) in space of
various artistic images.
╖
а аthe automated fine tuning of musical color dynamic (videomusical)
compositions to actual and desirable psychoemothional conditions
of the patient (a transcription of conditions and
properties of the person in artistic images);а
╖
а аchange of a condition in the given direction with the help
of videomusical programs (translation complementary to the
subject of audio-visual images);а
╖
а аthe multi-modal feedback informing the patient about
changes, occuring during a musictherapy, with use of various
representative systems.
The
method developed by us has allowed further with the help of
psychological tests to model in system of a POC-THERAPY various
mental conditions and properties of the person, (including
temperament, character etc.) and to carry out their
transcriptions in various and polymodal artistic images (musical,
color dynamic, literary - poetic, dramaturgic, picturesque etc.).
And, results of psychological testing of influence of artistic
images on mental conditions and properties of the person were
verified and on objective parameters.
In our article
" Experience of clinical application of system of Tonic in
medical diagnostic work ", published in 1994 in the
collection " Mental health of the population of Russia, some
results of approbation of system of interactive video-musical
therapy of "TONIC" in the Moscow scientific research
institute of the joint venture were submitted.
аLet's result
the basic theses of this work.
а
The
psychoemothional condition of the person (PCP) is a component of
structure of his functional condition and is considered by us as
subjectively significant integrator of influence of internal and
external factors during ability to live of the individual.а
ааааа
As practice shows, the PCP, on the one hand, is the sensitive
indicator disadaptations of an organism, and with another -
object of psychotherapeutic influence which allows to compensate
displays disadaptable syndrome. As have shown our researches,
dynamics of a PCP can serve as a parameter of efficiency of
rehabilitation of patients after heavy poisonings.
ааааа
With the purpose of the decision of a problem of rehabilitation
of patients after heavy poisonings with psychotropic preparations
on resistibility stages of a poisoning the automated control
system of a psychoemothional condition of the person of "TONIC"
was applied. The system was applied alongside with the medicinal
therapy directed on removal of displays psychoorganic of a
syndrome.
The
Tonika (Tonic) System is an IBM PC/AT-based program complex,
intendedа for the individual control and correction of a PCP. In
system " the Way of the directed regulation of a PCP ",
based on a technique of lumpsum musical color influence on the
recipient which provides nonverbal suggestion of the certain PCP
is realized. The system functions in three modes:
1.ааа
аthe psychoemothional condition of the person diagnostics;
2.ааа
аthe psychoemothional condition of the person аoptimization;
3.ааа
data analysis and system adjustment (for "the psychologist"
only).
аааааа
In a mode of "adjustment" of system the doctor -
psychopheraputic has an opportunity to set the script of a
computer psychotherapy, which determines structure and a sequence
of presentation of psychodiagnostic tests (eight-factorial test
Supos 8, eight-color test by M. Lusher with an estimation of
vegetative balance and a total deviation from norms), and also
one of three modes of correction of a condition of the patient:
removals of a psycho-physical pressure (relaxation), adjustment
on the vigorous activity (mobilization) or the general
harmonization of a condition (optimization). Depending on values
of parameters of the diagnosed actual PCP system " Tonic
" automatically chooses and reproduces the audio-visual
compositions providing the maximal psychotherapeutic effect in a
given mode of correction of a PCP with the help of the personal
computer.
аааааа
During clinical approbation the subsystem of diagnostics of a PCP
was added with objective methods (Frequency of intimate
reductions, Arterial pressure, Skin galvanic reaction), allowing
to look after dynamics of a vegetative tone shown as sympathetic
and pair - sympathetic "shifts", and also computer
tests for an estimation simple sensomotoric reactions, attention
(tableа of Shulte), uneasiness , " State of health,
Activity, Mood " and other psychological tests.
аааааа
During complex treatment of 25 patients with poisoningsа were
carried out sessions of a computer psychotherapy with application
of system "Tonic " (on 2 - 3 sessions in 1-3 days).аа
аааааа
In result after sessions of a computer psychotherapy at patients
changes of parameters of an actual PCP adequate to carried out
influence, both on subjective and on objective methods of testing
were observed.
аааааа
In a mode of "mobilization" which was appointed the
patient with expressed depressive
syndrome,
increases of values under factors of estimation PCP "Vigour",
"Activity" on the average on 16 % c by simultaneous
decrease of parameters under factors "Depression" - on
12 %, "Despondency" - on 13 % were observed. Thus shift
of vegetative balance aside activation sympathetic components of
vegetative nervous system was clearly fixed.
аааааа
In a mode of "relaxation" which was appointed the
patient with expressed a Disturbing syndrome, on the contrary,
value under factors "Activity", "Impulsiveness",
"Anxiety", "Uneasiness"а on the average
accordingly on 10 %, 11 %, 15 %, 15 %, and on the factor "Calmness"
- were increased by 17 %. Shift of parameters of vegetative
balance aside activation pair sympathetic components of
vegetative nervous system was simultaneously observed.
аааааа
In a mode of "Optimization" which was appointed the
patient both after a mode of "Mobilization", and after
a mode of "Relaxation", there was a relative
displacement of a parameter of vegetative balance under test
LusherТs to values to simultaneous reduction of a total
deviation from norms.
аааааа
Also it is necessary to note, that for all modes of correction of
a condition after sessions of a computer psychotherapy
positive changes under the test the DIGNITY (the factor "State
of health" on the average on 20 %, the factor "Mood"
- on 24 %) and under test SpilbergerТs - reduction of a
parameter of situational uneasiness up to "average" and
"low" levels were observed.
аааааа
Thus, results of clinical approbation show, that the system of a
computer psychotherapy of "Tonic" can be applied
alongside with the standard methods as not medicamentous means of
the accelerated rehabilitation of patients with sharp psychogenic
reactions at poisonings.
аааааа
It is necessary to note an opportunity of application of system
" Tonic "а the purpose of increase of suggestibility
at realization of the psychotherapy directed on restoration of
work capacity and social adaptation of patients, and also
diagnostics, preventive maintenance and treatment of
psychoemothional infringements.
Let's
result a bright example of application of the Synergic
Interactive Musictherapy in psychotherapeutic practice.
In
psychotherapeutic practice frequently there are cases when as a
result of psychoemothional frustration аat the patient the
expressed affective infringements which can be shown in the form
of deep depression or high uneasiness are observed.
аа
In these cases effectively it is possible to apply the offered
way of the directed regulation of a psychoemothional condition.
And, if in a psychoemothional condition of the patient depressive
components prevail, regulation of a condition in a direction of
mental mobilization, i.e. consecutive translation in a condition
described by high vigour, activity, confidence of the forces etc
is recommended.
аа
In case of prevalence of components of disturbing affect gradual
translation of the patient in a condition of a pleasant calming
relaxation which is characterized by a low level of anxiety and
uneasiness at an average level of vigour and a low level of
mental activity is expedient.
Let's
consider a concrete example.

Hi the Bach - is spoken by the God.
а Hi
the God - speaks a Bach "
аFrom
songs Alexander Galich
а
а
As
a musical therapeutic material in system " Tonic "
various musical compositions on themes of 48 preludes and the
fugues including in Well-Tempered Clavier - I.S.Bach's
composition were applied
In
process of perfection of technology "Multimedia"
musical compositions and their transcriptions in color dynamic
images were improved.
First
we have replaced the elementary synthesizer of a sound with more
modern. Thus the idea of amphoteric character of the man's and
female beginning in absolute was realized. Behind this metaphor
that fact disappears, that in the new version of system "
Tonic " is used original a timbre - rhythmic interpretation
W╥C of a Bach.
Today we shall
show the new version of system of Tonic in the videorecording
made directly from the personal computer on the videorecorder,
and then recoded in a format of Video CD.
As you hear in
this record of the Prelude and the Fugue of Bach are executed a
mansion of man's and female voices. It art decision is one of
concrete realizations of the principle of amphoteric character
offered by us. And it art decision allows to achieve special
expressiveness of performance and, accordingly force of
therapeutic influence. Professionals understand, that such
interpretation - result creative, but long and laborious work.а
Have accordingly
changed also a visual line. And, though in this record we can not
in full will take pleasure in magnificent game of color dynamic
images, we see, that application of modern computer technologies
of animation and 3D-graphic, allow essentially to raise
expressive capacity and force of therapeutic influence of
videomusical compositions.
а
Thus, actually
the technology of the directed musictherapy in the basis remains
constant since 1992.
а
As
we already marked, for its realization the system of
classification of mental conditions and properties was developed
and with its help the space of mental conditions and properties
of the person and its display in space of various artistic images
as which 96 pieces of music from Well-Tempered Clavier аby I.S.Bach
were used. And, results of psychological testing of influence of
musical artistic images on mental conditions and properties of
the person were checked up on objective parameters.
Our
long-term clinical experimental researches have shown, that Well-Tempered
Clavier аby I.S.Bach has really boundless therapeutic potential
and as a hobby, and for a body of the person.
Therefore
we completely agree with opinion of some critics that Well-Tempered
Clavier аis the perfect musical model worth at a level of divine
creation of the world with infinite potential incorporated in it
to development of each of its components. But we are not limited
to this opinion.
Today
it is important to understand, that in conditions of expansion of
a postmodernism, an eclectic masscult, with the expressed
semiology of the ambivalent thinking which is washing away as the
person traced on coastal sand not only the subject, but also
personal senses of human words, music, musical language starts
carries out the same function, as a word of the God. Therefore,
probably, the Third precept comes to us not in a word, and in
music.
Certainly
with a known share of metaphoricalness, we can consider Well-Tempered
Clavier аby I.S.Bach as the third precept inverted to mankind.
From this point of view Bach - the prophet to whom the revelation
of Sacred Spirit expressed in the musical form was shown.
Well-Tempered
Clavier аby I.S.Bach - the God inside us. That feels that and
the person realizes, listening to music Well-Tempered Clavier and
there is a word of the God of the third precept, the word going
from within, instead of outside, a word inverted individually to
each person, in his own language of personal concepts and senses.
Well-Tempered
Clavier by I.S.Bach - the God sounding in you, the God sounding
in an internal Temple of your soul.
In
music of a Bach human and divine are in a synergy - complementary
unity, it forms the personal trinitarian thinking having property
of amphoteric character, on an image and similarity.
From
the point of view developed by us, great composers - prophets of
Sacred Spirit, Spirit of True, that in us stays and per one
century will be.
Task
of musicians and musictheraputics - Hermeneutics interpretation
of classical pieces of music with the purpose of disclosing
listening their sacral sense. The executor (as " Sacred text")
creates the interpreter together with the composer and expresses
the latent, polysemantic maintenance of music in intonational and
rhythmic language of the epoch. Thus, we determine a task of
musical Hermeneutics simultaneously and in sense Gadamer, and
in sense W.Dilthey. That is the interpreter on the one hand
should penetrate into elements of historical time in which the
piece of music was created, and, on the other hand - it should
express comprehended senses in intonational language of the epoch.
Otherwise, it remain not understood by contemporaries. And its
performance will be interesting and clear only to a narrow circle
of professionals. In our opinion, only such amphoteric
Hermeneutics can become a key to comprehension and disclosing of
sacral sense of music.
And,
during a SIM not only the executor, but also the student actively
creates together with the composer. There is a triune system: the
composer - the musician - listening. And in this synergic process
listening the word of the God sounding in him opens. He hears
Spirit of True, in him staying.
The
special role in a synergic interactive musictherapy is allocated transcriptions
of music in a visual color dynamic image. The visual, color
dynamic image appropriate to emotional character of a piece of
music, carries out function of the catalyst of direct emotional
aesthetic reaction to music in a synergic interactive
musictherapy and allows the student in sacral the diagram of
motives to see the latent semantics of the third precept coded in
music of a Bach and ingenious creations of great composers of a
classicism, romanticism and impressionism.
At
the end of 90th years the method of a synergic interactive
musictherapy was added with offered I.M.Miroshnik a synergic
way of interpretation and performance of music. According to
this way, innovative interpretation of pieces of music is carried
out in view of laws of harmonious change of phase conditions in
complex oscillatory systems (under the law phasegenesis),
and specially developed piano performing engineering provides
disclosing a deep code of music to students therefore
music becomes for students not an external sound background, and
with the synergic process providing effective self-management and
self-development of the person on яёшїю biological,
psychosocial and яёшїю spiritual levels of life,
consciousness, activity.
DEMONSTRATION
(CD " the Album of synergic music ", 1998).
а
The
synergic an artistic image has unique property to cause
synthesis of amphoteric mental connections (subjective -
objective, ideal - real, internal - external, causal - teleonomic),
carried out in a trinity acoustical, kynaesthetic and visual
representations (ampthitrinitarian synergic model). A
Psycho-Physiological basis of such synthesis, from our point of
view, the amphoteric (bifunctional) unity of the left and
right hemispheres of a brain of the person is.а
We
believe, that synergic interaction of complementary hemispheres
of a brain can be initiated with the help of the newest psychological
technologies based on a synergy of arts (synaesthetic),
the high technology technologies (multimedia), spiritual practice
(Initialization ). A concrete example of such technology is the
POC-THERAPY and its major component - a synergic interactive
musictherapy.
In
the theory of a POC-THERAPY we consider a SIM not only as a
method of treatment, but also as the cultural humanitarian
practice directed on harmonization of the person in a
trinity of her biological, social and spiritual Уlife -
consciousnesses Ц timeФ.
We
believe also, that the ampthitrinitarian paradigm (a bifunctional
Trinity) underlies the theory of music and finds the embodiment
in the basic harmonious intervals (an octave, a quint, a quart),
major and minor harmonious triads (tonic, a subdominant, a
dominant), connected quintum relationship.
As
we already marked, in a SIM the transcription of major and
minor harmonious triads in color dynamic images is carried out.
This transcription is based on a principle of complementary
relations of musical and color intervals open by us, that is
conformity of an interval of a quint and complementary colors. We
experimentally (with the help of a psychological technique of a
Simultaneous Presentation of Sound and Color Stimuluses ) reveal
conformity of twelve steps musical and color building. The
revealed law has allowed to harmonizeа the quintum-quartum
circle from 12 major and minor tonalities and a circle of
complementary colors (and also a zodiac circle from 12
constellations). The transcription of attitudes of an interval of
a quint in relations of complementary colors was the original
metrics for an establishment of a synergy of music and color,
that is for creation of a matrix musical - color harmony. In its
result two complementary circles are formed:
Complementary colors and the musical tonalities located on a
degree of harmonious relationship, that essentially differs
from traditional models of old indian and Chinese philosophies,
Pythagorean, Platonic and also West-European philosophies.
Thus,
theories of musical and color harmony become complementary and
there is a uniform theory of musical - color synergy.
Therefore specially organized (synergic) videomusic is considered
in a POC-THERAPY not only as means of the directed self-control,
but also as the spiritual practice providing development
of harmonious trinitarian thinking and consciousness of the
person.
The
synergic video-musical art image has unique property to cause
synthesis of amphoteric mental connections (subjective -
objective, ideal - real, internal - external, causal - teleologic),
carried out in a trinity acoustical, cinaesthetic and visual
representations (ampthitrinitarian synergic model).
Therefore in unity with information technologies (causae
ministeriales) synergic music creates during a POC-THERAPY
powerful power streams (causae efficiens), carrying out the
important role in therapy and self-realization of the person (causa
finalis).а
Indications
to application of a SIM are wide: diseases of nervous
system, cardiovascular system, a gastroenteric path, decrease of
immunity and so forth. the Synergic musictherapy can be
applied in a complex of a POC-THERAPY and in a combination to
physiotherapy etc. methods of treatment, both in individual, and
in group forms.
Thus,
the SIM opens essentially new opportunities for medicine,
development of creative abilities, harmonization of thinking and
consciousness of the person in conditions of becoming of new postindustrial
synergic culture of the third millenium.

аFor
the first time the method of synergic interactive musictherapy
was developed and patented in the Russian Federation (I.M.Miroshnik,
E.V.Gavrilin, 1993). This way was realized by us in the first
computer system of interactive video-musical therapy of "TONIC."
Its distinctive features: the automated fine tuning videomusical
compositions to actual and desirable conditions of the patient (a
transcription of conditions and properties of the person in
artistic images); change of a condition in the given direction
with the help of videomusical programs (translation complementary
to the subject of audio-visual images); a feedback informing the
patient about changes, occuring during a musictherapy, with use
of various representative systems. Music and videoline
automatically generated on its basis were reproduced with the
help of the personal computer, for what in 1991 was specially
developed a program videomusical synthesizer. (i.e. long before
occurrence of similar programs on the basis of technology the
multimedia) At the end of 90th years this method was added with
offered I.M.Miroshnik a synergic way of interpretation and
performance of music. According to this way, innovative
interpretation of pieces of music is carried out in view of laws
of harmonious change of phase conditions in complex oscillatory
systems, and specially developed piano performing engineering
provides disclosing a deep code of music to patients. for
whom it becomes not an external sound background, and with the
synergic process providing effective self-management and self-development
of the person (CD " the Album of synergic music
", 1998).
In
SIM the transcription of major and minor harmonious triads in
color dynamic images is carried out. This transcription is based
on a principle open by us complementary relations of
musical and color intervals, that is conformity of an
interval of a quint and complementary colors. We experimentally
reveal conformity of twelve steps musical and color systems. The
revealed law has allowed to harmonize a quintum circle from 12
major both minor tonalities and a circle of complementary colors
(and also a zodiac circle from 12 constellations). In its result two
are formed a circle: complementary colors and the musical
tonalities located on a degree of harmonious relationship,
that essentially differs from traditional models of Old Indian,
Chinese and European philosophy. Thus, theories of musical and
color harmony become complementary and there is a
Uniform theory of Music-Color Synergy.
A
concrete example of such technology is the Personality Oriented
Computerized psychotherapy (POC-THERAPY) and its major component
- a Synergic Interactive Musictherapy (SIM). SIM opens
essentially new opportunities for medicine, development of
creative abilities, harmonization of thinking and consciousness
of the person in conditions of becoming of new postindustrial
synergic culture of the third millenium.
