Architectural rehearsal: choreopolitical ecologies within a scripted world

For several decades, the fields of dance and performance have been exploring the interplay between movement, conditioning, subjectivity and politics. If "choreopolice" help describe that conditioning regime, "choreopolitics" describe the ways in which a co ...

Neuronal correlates of goal-directed sensorimotor transformation in sensory, motor and higher-order cortical areas

Anastasiia Oryshchuk

An important function of the brain is to interpret incoming sensory information from the outside world to guide adaptive behavior. Understanding how and where sensory information is transformed into motor commands in a context- and learning-dependent manne ...

EEG signature of breaks in embodiment in VR

Olaf Blanke, José del Rocio Millán Ruiz, Ronan Boulic, Bruno Herbelin, Ricardo Andres Chavarriaga Lozano, Fumiaki Iwane, Thibault Serge Mario Porssut

The brain mechanism of embodiment in a virtual body has grown a scientific interest recently, with a particular focus on providing optimal virtual reality (VR) experiences. Disruptions from an embodied state to a less- or non-embodied state, denominated Br ...

How I became myself after merging with a computer: Does human-machine symbiosis raise human rights issues?

Marcello Ienca

Novel usages of brain stimulation combined with artificially intelligent (AI) systems promise to address a large range of diseases. These new conjoined technologies, such as brain-computer interfaces (BCI), are increasingly used in experimental and clinica ...

Does anodal cerebellar tDCS boost transfer of after-effects from throwing to pointing during prism adaptation?

Lisa Aïcha Mireille Julie Fleury

Prism Adaptation (PA) is a useful method to study the mechanisms of sensorimotor adaptation. After-effects following adaptation to the prismatic deviation constitute the probe that adaptive mechanisms occurred, and current evidence suggests an involvement ...

Wearable Haptics for Somatosensory Perception and Self-consciousness

Atena Fadaeijouybari

Recent research has highlighted the crucial role of the processing of somatosensory signals involving the torso for global aspects of Bodily Self Consciousness (BSC), i.e., the experience of the conscious "I" as embodied and localized within bodily space. ...

Movement-Related Cortical Potentials in Embodied Virtual Mirror Visual Feedback

Gangadhar Garipelli, Tamara Rossy

Background: Mirror therapy is thought to drive interhemispheric communication, resulting in a balanced activation. We hypothesized that embodied virtual mirror visual feedback (VR-MVF) presented on a computer screen may produce a similar activation. In thi ...

Anatomical and functional characterization of neocortical circuits involved in transforming whisker sensory processing into goal-directed licking

Georgios Foustoukos

The choice of an action upon perception of an external stimulus, arriving at a sensory organ of an animal, depends on previous experiences and outcomes throughout its life. In the rodent brain, the underlying mechanisms involved in simple sensorimotor tran ...

Flight of mind: Sensorimotor and multisensory embodiment with aviation robotics, flight simulator, and virtual reality

Myeong Seop Song

Normally, humans experience an 'I' as residing in one's body and as the agent of one's actions. In other words, the self is experienced as being inside the body (self-location), as having a body (self-identification), and as being able to control the perso ...

Sensorimotor conflicts alter metacognitive and action monitoring

Olaf Blanke, Fosco Bernasconi, Nathan Quentin Faivre, Roy Salomon, Laurène Véronique Vuillaume

While sensorimotor signals are known to modulate perception, little is known about their influence on higher-level cognitive processes. Here, we applied sensorimotor conflicts while participants performed a perceptual task followed by confidence judgments. ...
