Do aesthetic experiences require real sensory input, or can mental imagery evoke them just as powerfully? Our study shows that vivid mental imagery alone can trigger aesthetic experiences nearly indistinguishable from those caused by real sensory input! doi.org/10.1016/j.isci.2025.…

🧠 A story about the brain, told through self-supervised learning: Grid cells, known for mapping physical spaces, also appear to track *abstract spaces* like ideas and sounds. How? 🤔 Excited to share the first of 2 papers at #NeurIPS2024! With @SarthakChandra @FieteGroup. 1/n

What is an aesthetic experience? Or should we say HOW does experience become aesthetic? These theoretical questions are explored (also available in Italian!) in Specker et al. (2024) who argue that aesthetic experience is a continuum, read it here: doi.org/10.57633/NODES-23/2-…

How do we evaluate artworks? and more specifically, how do artwork features lead to art experiences? These complex questions are tackled in our new publication, Spee et al. (2024) using machine-learning! Wanna know the answer? Check out: doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone…

You may have already seen it @artislabs, but we (Pelowski et al., 2024) have a new publication out! In the @DomMuseumWien we showed that visiting their exhibition can foster empathy! Wanna know more? See: doi.org/10.1037/aca0000670

People like round contours better than angular contours. Where and how is curvature represented in the brain? With indoor architecture we found a neural dissociation between subjective curvature and computational curvature. nature.com/articles/s41598-0… @DelaFarzanfar @mskov01

Next we (Connor Kirts & @suvisaarikallio & @tuomas_ee) are developing tools to offer the community ways to evaluate the model predictions. The theory is out today #OpenAccess at @PsyofMus. See doi.org/10.1177/030573562412… 5/5 #musicscience #emotion #theory

New theory out! What do you get when you mix music and emotion regulation literature with the functions of music and explanations of music-induced emotions? You get a new theory called the 'Episode Model of Emotional Experiences of Music' 1/5

Congrats to all the early career researchers who did poster presentations at @GroupBip Conference on Beauty & Change: “Aesthetics & Human Flourishing: Theories, Experiments and Applications”. Loved learning what all our international psychologists & philosophers are cooking up.
