Subject: univie: summer school in Cognitive Science "Cognition, Art, and Culture" - Deadline for applications extended to 3.7.2016 From: PETER <prantasa@xxxxxxxx> Date: Wed, 29 Jun 2016 23:32:45 +0200 List-Archive:<http://lists.mcgill.ca/scripts/wa.exe?LIST=AUDITORY>--001a113fbed2af31250536717fa3 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable univie: summer school in Cognitive Science "Cognition, Art, and Culture" > Application deadline extended: July 3, 2016 > Now also open for advanced Master students August 26 - September 2, 2016 University of Vienna, Austria Organized by the Cognitive Science Research Platform, University of Vienna in cooperation with the IAEA - International Association of Empirical Aesthetics cogsci.univie.ac.at/summerschool2016 iaea2016.univie.ac.at --- The Cognitive Turn initiated in Psychology and Computer Science has reached the Social Sciences and Humanities that traditionally study art and culture. The new encounter of academic disciplines poses challenges for researchers, teachers and students. At the first glance incompatible conceptualizations of the objects of investigation (here works of art and their creation and perception) and differences in applied methodologies (quantitative vs. qualitative) require skills in interdisciplinary scientific communication. The univie: summer school in Cognitive Science will bring together scholars from neuroscience, psychology, philosophy and art history, to explore the new paradigms of empirical aesthetics, neuroaesthetics, cognitive science and empirical methods (fMRI, Eye Tracking, Facial EMG) in theory and practice. It is addressed to PhD students of the arts, humanities and social sciences. Post Docs in the humanities who want to broaden their expertise on empirical methods, and motivated/advanced Master students with experience in interdisciplinary work are welcome to apply. Participants will have the opportunity to attend all keynote lectures and the parallel presentation sessions with the leading researchers of the international congress of the IAEA 2016. Excursions to important institutions in Vienna will round off this inspiring late summer experience. Speakers: - Anjan Chatterjee (University of Pennsylvania, Center for Cognitive Neuroscience; Neurology at Pennsylvania Hospital) - Paul Hekkert (Delft University of Technology, Faculty Industrial Design Engineering) - Helmut Leder (University Vienna, Department of Basic Psychological Research and Research Methods, Faculty of Psychology) - Markus Peschl (University Vienna, Department of Philosophy, Faculty of Philosophy and Education) - Raphael Rosenberg (University Vienna, Department of Art History) - Natalie Sebanz (Central European University Budapest, Department of Cognitive Science) - Gabrielle Starr (New York University, Department of English) - Special Guest: Stefan Sagmeister (graphic designer, Sagmeister&Walsh, New York) What we offer: - A seven days program with international speakers - Access to keynotes, panels and sessions at the IAEA 2016 congress - Networking opportunities at the social evening of IAEA 2016 - Excursions - Assistance in organizational matters concerning your stay - 6 ECTS Your costs: - =E2=82=AC120 tuition for the summer school - Lodging.
