In the research work: "music therapy and the use of technological aids in the evaluation and psycho-motor intervention in children with cerebral palsy", developed at the Santa Rita de Cascia institution, describes the music therapy process implemented in 4 participants with paralysis brain and associated conditions. Its objective is the evaluation of psycho-motor aspects of a music therapy process that will be implemented through technology. The IMTAPS music therapy evaluation system software was used, which will guide the specific categories to work and according to the collection of information about the possibilities of movement, a musical technological interface based on arduino technology was designed that facilitated the musical interaction active participants in music therapy sessions. Additionally, measurements of brain electrical activity were taken by means of the Emotiv-EPOC technological tool at rest and in two music therapy activities that provide topographic images of neuro activity that are related to the outcome in motor development of the participants. It is implemented from the TIMP technique, specific to neurological music therapy, which aims to provide motor control to be extrapolated to everyday life. The research has a phenomenological design, describing the phenomenon of music therapy intervention through the use of technology in patients with cerebral palsy.
