[Koglist] [CEU Cogsci Talks] CogSci CEU Departmental Colloquium: April 8, Wednesday: Angela Stoeger-Horwath (University of Vienna) - All about the bass

by Andrea Schrok

The CEU Department of Cognitive Science cordially invites you to its talk (as part of its Departmental Colloquium series) by Angela Stoger-Horwath (University of Vienna) Mammal Communication Lab Department of Cognitive Biology Date: Wednesday, April 8, 2015 - 17:00-18:30 NEW Location: Department of Cognitive Science, CEU, Oktober 6 street 7, 1st floor, room 101. ‘All about that bass’ Elephant vocal communication: sound production and adaptive context Although living in substantially different habitats, African (Loxodonta sp.) and Asian (Elephas maximus) elephants are extremely social and intra-specific communication is highly developed in these species. In particular, elephants are very vocal and acoustic signals play an integral part within the society of African and Asian elephants. Elephants make extensive use of vocalizations with fundamental frequencies in the infrasonic range and exhibit an interesting vocal plasticity (grading between call types, call type combinations, and sophisticated, context-dependent within-call type flexibility affecting all parameters including vocal tract resonance frequencies (formants). In addition, previously undocumented vocalizations sometimes emerge- mostly documented in captive elephants: sound invention and vocal imitation is apparent in both recent genera of Elephantidae. In my talk I will discuss vocal production mechanisms and the function of infrasonic vocalizations and will further focus on the vocal learning ability of elephants, it’s neural bases and potential adaptive context.

[Koglist] [CEU Cogsci Talks] CogSci CEU Departmental Colloquium: March 25, Wednesday: Cecilia M. Heyes (University of Oxford) - The cultural evolution of cultural learning

by Gyorgyne Finta

The CEU Department of Cognitive Science cordially invites you to its talk (as part of its Departmental Colloquium series) by Cecilia M. Heyes (University of Oxford) Date: Wednesday, March 25, 2015 - 17:00-18:30 NEW Location: Department of Cognitive Science, CEU, Oktober 6 street 7, 1st floor, room 101. The cultural evolution of cultural learning All Souls College and Department of Experimental Psychology, University of Oxford Cultural learning is the subset of social cognitive processes that enable cumulative cultural evolution; they allow humans to pass information from one generation to the next, and thereby to invent artefacts, develop institutions, and accumulate bodies of knowledge that go well beyond the cognitive capacities of individuals or temporally isolated groups. In common with ‘High Church evolutionary psychologists’, cultural evolutionists typically assume that the mechanisms underlying cultural learning are innate modules; that they evolved by genetic means as adaptations for cultural inheritance. In contrast, I will suggest in this talk that some of the most important mechanisms of cultural learning – those involved in imitation, mindreading, and teaching – are themselves products of cultural evolution. Examining evidence from comparative and developmental psychology, and from cognitive neuroscience, I will argue that we learn from others how to learn from others. - See more at: http://cognitivescience.ceu.edu/events/2015-03-25/departmental-colloquium-c… We're looking forward to see you there (Oktober 6 street 7, 101) !
