Visual adaptation is viewed as a test of whether a feature is represented by the visual system.
In a new paper, Sam Clarke and I push the limits of this test. We show spatially selective, putatively "visual" adaptation to a clearly non-visual dimension: Value!

Screenshot of VLC Website with Photo of Fabian + the following text: FABIAN HUNDERTMARK – Homepage Fabian Hundertmark is a postdoctoral researcher in the AUSAD project at the University of Valencia. Before joining the VLC Lab, he worked in two research projects at Bielefeld University on teleosemantics and the metaphysics of biological dispositions. His research is situated at the intersection of the philosophy of mind, philosophy of psychiatry, philosophy of biology, and metaphysics. He is particularly interested in naturalistic theories of biological function, the metaphysics of dispositions and abilities, and the conceptual foundations of mental disorder. His work addresses questions about what mental disorders are, how biological norms are grounded, and how modal properties figure in scientific explanations. He is currently developing a naturalistic theory of abilities.
I'm happy and proud to be joining @vlc-lab.bsky.social in September! I'm even already on the website! vlclab.blogs.uv.es/senior-membe...
