This paper is finally out! What happens to our brain when we view surrealistic imagery? Thanks to everyone involved. journals.plos.org/plosone/articl…

@MRGlabBCN Enthusiasts of art & empirical aesthetics, don't miss the special issue, ‘Art, aesthetics and predictive processing: theoretical and empirical perspectives’ at royalsocietypublishing.org/toc/rstb/2024/…. Big thanks to @J_Frascaroli @TumlehRedel @ElviraBrattico and @sandervdc for the wonderful work!

Essential reading from @sallyhayd: "How many tens of thousands more people need to die for there to be a reckoning? How has this mass death become in any way normalised? Will there ever be accountability?" irishtimes.com/world/europe/2…

⁦@al__drew⁩ kicking off the second day of the Iberian Conference on Perception this morning talking about perceptual conflict #CIP2022 ⁦@SEPEX13⁩

@al__drew @MRuzzoli @0sigmas @MRGlabBCN Amazing!! ❤️‍🔥

🐘/🦓 in the back from @___aoife @MRuzzoli @0sigmas @MRGlabBCN’s beautiful study on the how the brain processes surrealism imagery

Last week at the Baltic Neurocine kickoff conference in Tallinn, speaking about how the brain might make sense of cuts in film 🪩

Meanwhile in cognitive neuroscience...🤔

After 3 years, it was great to be back at @sxsw today speaking about the barriers to being more inclusive and how cultivating curiosity, fostering empathy and promoting neuroplasticity can help to overcome these barriers #UKatSXSW #SXSW

Today's date is probably the date itself: and the so-called “Twosday” falls on a Tuesday, no less. It happened once before in the year 1011, but after today it will never happen again. It's a palindrome and an ambigram [read more: buff.ly/2AHQVYv]

Two of the best films I saw during #Berlinale

@burakbabayigit @berlinale I have 2 spare tickets for today at 5pm in case you know of anyone interested!

@berlinale hi there, I have spare tickets to “Ask, Mark ve Ölüm” this evening, is it possible to resell through the platform?

@vodafoneservice Ja, natürlich machen wir das jedes Mal. Das Problem ist, dass wenn wir endlich mit jemandem sprechen, dieser einen Fall eröffnet und dieser dann automatisch schließt, bevor er gelöst ist. Wir versuchen erneut anzurufen, bekommen aber diese Nachricht:

@vodafoneservice wieder kein internet in 12051… es vergeht keine woche in der wir keine internetprobleme mit vodafone haben. Was ist los?

@majimafia @berlinale Yes i've had this too a lot! It appears something is up with the credit card payments. Try another payment method!

@berlinale Yes I’ll keep trying, but isn’t it odd the payment spinning wheel? If I already had the ticket but payment wasn’t being processed then I lost the ticket bc of it

Is there’s a “deep state” like ticket system @berlinale ? Or what’s up? 3rd day trying to buy any ticket. Today I passed to the payment page alas the spinning wheel came up until the time expired... #Berlinale2022

This is blowing my mind! 🍊

@vodafoneservice Hallo, kein Internet in 12051 zum 8. Mal diese Woche wieder. Ist das normal? Wir waren 3 Jahre bei @o2de in 12049 und hatten nie ein Problem. Was ist das Problem? Die Infrastruktur von Vodafone oder unsere Postleitzahl?

Congrats to @al__drew and the rest of the @MRGlabBCN team for the paper on conflict monitoring & attentional adjustment during binocular rivalry. Having visited Dalí's house in Cadaqués last year, turns out he was also interested in binocular rivalry! 🔴🟢 onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/ej…

@felixjmorgan Omg I didn’t realise they also wrote a serious article about it too 😂

Any other Irish out there unable to cook a small quantity of potatoes? I swear it must be something in the inherited trauma that has me always cooking more… just in case 😅

Our paper is finally out! What happens in the brain when we have to choose between multiple but incompatible perceptual representations? Thank you to all those involved in this project. doi.org/10.1111/ejn.15…
