Research Interests:Our recent work has been along a number of related lines. First, with respect to culture and cognition, we have been doing research on biological concepts among three groups in Petan, Guatemala, and among Native American, Amish, and Majority culture people in northcentral Wisconsin. The scope of these projects is fairly broad, ranging from studies of basic level concepts and the use of categories in reasoning to environmental decision making and links between cultural differences in mental models of nature and inter-group conflict over natural resources. In a nutshell, the work on categorization and category-based reasoning shows patterns that systematically diverge from what undergraduates show, suggesting that theory and data based on undergraduates may not generalize to the world at large.

Symbiosis is the relationship formed when two organisms, living in close proximity, mutually benefit and evolve due to one another. Fungus is a primary symbiont to many if not most forms of life through their functions of decomposing organic matter and catalyzing nutrient cycles.
The Symbiosis series is a collaboration between Jake Eidem and myself, utilizing Jake Eidem’s painting style with my origami expertise, we created a body of work that conceptually emphasized the close-knit, mutually beneficial relationship we’ve shared in our artistic practice, and tied the gap between our stylization of media in our collaborative show, Liminal Cognition, hosted at the Gamut Gallery.
Using the RAVEN brain-computer interface, a research project ARL is pursuing under its Cognition and Neuroergonomics Collaborative Technology Alliance, the operator conducts a visual search while navigating within a virtual urban environment in the upper on-screen panel. A rapid stream of images (five per second) from the immediate surroundings requires the operator to identify any potential threats or targets, such as armed personnel, with a score assigned to each image according to his neural response. At this point, the operator is reviewing the three top-scoring images in the bottom on-screen panel. Looking ahead to the generation-after-next in Soldier training, ARL is exploring systems that adapt to their users and help them maximize performance no matter the conditions.

For many scientists, “sensing” is the final endpoint of numerous pathways of cognition; for philosophers, it has often been the first step in the process of reason itself. Current debates center on whether neuroscience can understand cognition if the subject is constituted through an ongoing negotiation with stimulus grasped by a moving and active body, in which one signal is constantly checked against another, rather than the long-cherished binaries of excitation/inhibition, push/pull, or on/off. In short, some theorists assert that much thinking goes on outside the skull. This session explored the scientific and cultural basis for prodigious feats of muscle memory, bodily thinking, on-the-spot decision making, and human action.

Meeting with Dr. Jeremy Bailenson of the Virtual Human Interaction Lab vhil.stanford.edu/
In May 2018 I was invited as artist on board on Kleronia, a 18 mt. cutter, in team with a video maker, a writer and a few skippers, to support the “Cognition in the wind” research project directed by Roberto Casati (Institut Jean Nicod, CNRS ENS EHESS, Paris). We navigate between Rome, the Pontine Islands and Gaeta. Watch a video here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=7TpY-AeXRNk

Indoctrination, Bondage, Liberation is a three-movement exploration of the human touch and the influences that bad actors can have upon our internal cognition. The piece revolves around the twisting of belief and the distortion of truth, powered by the evolutionarily manipulative bonds of physical intimacy. In the first and third movements, sounds are triggered by skin-on-skin contact that closes an electrical circuit between performers, ushering in a sonic reflection on the corporeal mechanisms that define us, for better
or worse.

REVEALING TRICKSIs this email not displaying correctly?View it in your browser.
Hi,
Have you ever experienced something that you just could not explain? If so you understand the power of mystery and the pull of the paranormal and extraordinary phenomena. A magician or a psychological illusionist can duplicate not only this phenomena, but also the feelings that go with it. We know from watching them that just because we cannot explain what happened, it does not mean it is inexplicable.
Revealing what lies behind the inexplicable involves not just knowing the trick but also revealing important aspects of ourselves, how we think, feel and behave. Understanding these and how to use this knowledge is what these workshops are about.
Learning Psychological Artistry and Mind Magic is all about using and gaining access to valuable and guarded secrets. For more information see mindsways.com/SMS and mindsways.com/the-fascination
WHAT YOU SEE AND WHAT YOU DON'T
Learning, using and applying the ideas, tricks, tools techniques and secrets behind Mind Magic and Psychological Artistry is what the workshops are all about. On the workshops we:
Reveal Tricks
Look at how to turn these tricks into effects and pieces that work for you
Explore the power of our Beliefs and Perspectives
Look at the Psychology of Error
Look at the true value of "The Personal Touch" in this technological dominated environment
Look at why we Believe Weird Things
Demonstrate the Power of Directing Attention (as opposed to Misdirection)
The Psychology and Neuroscience behind making the tricks work
Practical uses for Mind Magic and Psychological Artistry
THE FEEDBACK - WHAT PEOPLE SAY
The workshops have been enjoyed and shown to be beneficial to many people over the past year. The events have been attended and proved to be relevant to people from a wide range of backgrounds including entrepreneurs, business consultants, health professionals, coaches of life, performance and sports, therapists, hypnotists, trainers etc.
This is an unorthodox approach to understanding human behaviour, illustrating and promoting our messages, and this is where the real power lies. As Marty Neumeier says in ZAG " Be Different - NO, Really Different".
Feedback comments we have had, such as:
"A truly inspiring experience is how I'd best describe the Sleight of Mind Set workshop."
"I came away with lots of ideas to create drama and interest in my training delivery."
"The whole group laughed many times and were absolutely fascinated by each technique."
"Nothing but praise. It was a light-hearted and informative day and I was able to go home and immediately try things. The following day I made use of my new information in a therapy session - to great effect."
"You obviously have something very special happening here"

TRICKS OF THE MIND
The real power of Mind Magic and Psychological Artistry lies not with just the tricks, but the effect that the delivery of the tricks have on people, tapping into the emotions of mystery combined with the personal touch. On the workshops and in the packs we give you the tricks, however, learning to use them and turn them into effects is where the real power lies.
By delivering these effects, you can evoke the making of the extraordinary. By combining the tricks with the energy of your words, your message and your personality, you make yourself stand out, stimulate fascination and create interest in you. This is when the real magic happens, in the minds of others.
To see a few interesting examples of how magic can be used in communication, please see mindsways.com/the-fascination# PsychologicalTED
WHAT IS PSYCHOLOGICAL ARTISTRY?
To start with there are many definitions of psychology, but the one that sums it up for me is "the science of how we think". Next is the Artistry part, again, there have been many definitions but I like to think that artistry is a blend of:
Creating connection, rapport and emotions
Telling stories
Gaining and holding attention
Producing insights
Displaying human nature
Cognition
Show, Not Tell
Multiple Moments of Interest, Interaction and Insights (MMI's)
Therefore, Psychological Artistry is the blending of these two to create a method for successful communication. Psychological Artistry is where science and art meet Mind Magic.
Interesting examples of how all is not as it appears are the McGurk effect and Prof. Richard Wiseman's "The Incredible Colour Changing Card Effect", a well-known Fred Astaire clip and Rory Sutherland's Perspective Is Everything talk. Please take a look here or go to mindsways.com/SMS. These illustrate both the power and the approach of Psychological Artistry. I would love to know what you think.

goo.gl/9lNTP Allen Newell considered this question in Unified Theories of Cognition. He differentiated between symbols (the phenomena in the abstract) and tokens (their physical instantiations). Tokens "stood for" some larger concept.
