Processing Novelty papers now online |
Wednesday 7 April 2004, Elam Lecture Theatre, 9am-5pm
What happens when people from different disciplines get
together to discuss and demonstrate the processing of novelty?
Is
it possible that the dynamics between their interpretations in visual art,
sound art, architecture, engineering, science, and new media practice will
spark new perspectives? And what affect might these novelties in
turn have on our behaviour and thought processes?
With these
questions in mind the key terms for the symposium have been selected from
contemporary theories on consciousness and its associated autonomic
processes:
affect, attention; attraction; current source density map;
event-related potential; environment; galvanic skin response; mismatch
negativity; novelty; oddball event response; raw voltage map; world
