title: EEG alpha dynamics as viewed from EEG dimension dynamics.
abstract: EEG alpha power covaries with changes in visual input and with changes in other aspects of cortical processing. We present an synopsis of three experiments that demonstrate these effects. A concurrent analysis of the EEG dimension indicates that the dynamics of EEG alpha may result from at least two different mechanisms.
