the Bayesian Models of Cognition book can teach you a lot about intuitive physics, e.g.:

One remarkable aspect of human physical reasoning and perception is our ability to track and predict the motion of hidden objects. Come see my poster at #CogSci2025 (P1-D-44), where I show how people “see through occlusion”, and how we model it using Bayesian inference. @cogscisociety.bsky.social

Can you tell if a tower will fall or if two objects will collide — just by looking? 🧠👀 Come check out my #CogSci2025 poster (P1-W-207) on July 31, 13:00–14:15 PT to learn how people do general-purpose physical reasoning from visual input!

It has come to my attention that @bsky.app thinks that this is an imposter account. I'm not sure whether to be proud that they think I'm famous enough to impersonate, or disappointed that they can't tell that I'm in no way pretending to be another Kevin Smith
