Been having some wonderful and really engaging discussions with many of the #ICMPC18 attendees this year in São Paulo!
So lucky to be doing research in this field alongside such brilliant and thoughtful people 🧠💫

And alumni of course!

Good luck to all the @musicpsychologylab.bsky.social members presenting both in-person and virtually at #ICMPC18 this week!

I’m hiring a lab manager for my new music cognition lab at Cornell. I’m also looking to recruit PhD students and postdocs next year. I’ll be at #ICMPC_SaoPaulo and #CogSci2025—feel free to reach out or spread the word for relevant candidates.

Then, we looked at how features of the different music clips predicted different thought types, like memories, fictional imaginings, and abstract imagery: doi.org/10.1177/0305....

The first two papers from the @leverhulme.ac.uk funded Music & Imagination project are now out, led by the fantastic @hazelvanderwalle.bsky.social! First, we built and validated a stimulus set of over 350 music clips varying in genre, familiarity, emotion, etc. doi.org/10.3758/s134...
