We are pleased to share our just-published paper in the journal Nature Communications, entitled 'Timbral effects on consonance disentangle psychoacoustic mechanisms and suggest perceptual origins for musical scales'. This work represents a long-term collaboration with colleagues at the Max Planck Institute for Empirical Aesthetics (Nori Jacoby) and Princeton University (Raja Marjieh), amongst others.
