Dear Cognitive Folks,
The next Fluencia Party will be on 9th February (Friday) starting at 8.00pm
in Élesztő (Tűzoltó utca close to Corvin metro station).
Info: https://www.facebook.com/events/2013110232260580/
Fluencia is a monthly organized informal "jamboree" for cogsci-,
psychology-related students (undergrads, grads), professors, researchers
from many different universities in Hungary. The idea and motivation are to
facilitate interactions, communication, collaboration among researchers
working here, get to know others and others' interests, topics, etc. And,
of course, to have some drinks and fun in a friendly environment.
Everybody is welcome to attend! If you have any further questions, do not
hesitate to ask.
All the best,
Dezso

Dear all,
this is just a quick reminder that the talk of Paula Rubio-Fernandez
will take place tomorrow at 16:00 on Zoom. See the invitation below.
We look forward to seeing you at the event!
Best regards,
Zsuzsanna Nemecz
Time and date:16:00 (CET), Thursday, 9. 12. 2021.
Speaker:Paula Rubio-Fernandez (University of Oslo)
Title:Pragmatics is more than reading in between the lines
Abstract: Pragmatic reasoning is often understood as the ability to read
in between the lines. In this talk I will argue that this mindreading
ability is essential for understanding what is said, not only what is
implicit in a message. This view of pragmatics has implications for the
role of language and communication on the development and mature use of
Theory of Mind. I will present a series of studies using a variation of
the so-called ‘Director task’ to show how adults can derive
sophisticated mindreading inferences in a paradigm that is known for
revealing limits in pragmatic reasoning. Results from a simplified task
with preschoolers will also be discussed. I will conclude by presenting
a new line of work investigating how cross-linguistic differences and
universals in reference systems can offer key insights into how language
and communication train Theory of Mind throughout the lifespan.

*No expenses, just scholarly success. -- Semi-final call for abstracts:
Facing the Future, Facing the Screen*
Your gain: without paying fees or spending money on travelling, you will be
able to publish, in both an online and a printed volume, surrounded by the
company of exquisite scientists/scholars, a brief paper you can then
assuredly put on your official publications list. Your immensely greater
gain is that you will be forced to write a really good paper, getting ready
for it by necessarily reading important literature you have to date not
been acquainted with, and of course reflecting deeply on problems you have
perhaps hitherto not been aware of.
The Facing the Future, Facing the Screen physical--online blended
conference (10th Budapest Visual Learning Conference, Nov. 17, 2022,
13:00--18:00 CET) is planned as an interdisciplinary encounter of
communication and media theory, picture theory, psychology, philosophy,
pedagogy, history, political science, and other specialties. We absolutely
expect new scholarly results, aiming at an essential scientific step
forward. The central question: what image of the future can we conceive of
in a world based ever more strongly and diversely on digital devices and
online communication, what new patterns of life and in particular forms of
education should we strive to create, what possible distortions in our way
of life should we be prepared for? If on the one hand we assume that
primordial thinking emerged not as a verbal but as a pictorial one, as well
as of course do recognize the scientific value of today’s image creation
and image reproduction techniques, and in particular of visual simulation
bringing together vast amounts of data in an easily understandable
animation; but on the other hand clearly perceive the often destructive
effects of phoney images disseminated via social media: in what direction
should we then search, under such contradictory conditions, for the right
pattern of a pictorial education for the future?

*-* Publishing in small languages
The conference will be held physically at the wonderful venerable main
building of the Hungarian Academy of Sciences
<http://www.hunfi.hu/nyiri/FFF/site.pdf>, as well as made available via
Zoom and streamed live. The event will be opened by the President of the
Hungarian Academy of Sciences, world-renowned neurobiologist Tamás Freund. At
the conference we aim to host some 50 to 100 papers. Obviously such a
number of talks cannot be fitted into the given time frame of a few hours.
The solution we propose is the same one we applied at the 9th Budapest
Visual Learning Conference, please look at http://www.hunfi.hu/nyiri/
VLC9/graph_1.pdf <http://www.hunfi.hu/nyiri/VLC9/graph_1.pdf>. The papers
-- very short papers: 5000 characters main text plus footnotes, images and
image captions, as well as a 5-minutes video -- will be made available
online prior to the event. Please do not feel the limited length to be a
yoke, experience it, rather, as a liberation. Being brief is the new
normal. The conference itself will then serve mainly as a forum to discuss
all accessible papers by all participants. Also, there will be a number of
actually held 15-minutes plenary talks. Invited speakers:
Réka Benczes (Corvinus University of Budapest)
James E. Katz (Boston University)
Jean-Rémi Lapaire (Université Bordeaux Montaigne)
Kieron O’Hara (University of Southampton)
Irma Puškarević (Wichita State University)
Seamus Ross (University of Toronto)
Barry Smith (University at Buffalo)
Stephen Turner (University of South Florida)
Alfredo Vernazzani (Ruhr-Universität Bochum)
Subsequent to the event, within months, we plan to publish edited
collections of a selection of the talks in journals, as well as the entire
lot of the talks in a bulky volume, with colour images, both online and
printed.
Dear All! Are you interested in participating (online or physically – fate
might decide…)? Do you have suggestions as to further topics/subtopics?
Feel free to informally write to me (Kristóf Nyíri, nyirik(a)gmail.com). Or
indeed submit an abstract to the combined three addresses:
<petra.aczel(a)uni-corvinus.hu>,
<benedek.a(a)eik.bme.hu>,
<nyirik(a)gmail.com>,
<eszter.deli(a)uni-corvinus.hu>.
The abstract should not be longer than 2000 characters, with a bio
(affiliation, main research interests) of max. 500 characters added. In
the abstract please do not use the (author, year) reference style, nor do
have a list of references at the end. Just apply, if you need to, informal
references, like e.g. “as Seymour Papert wrote in his *Mindstorms*”, or
e.g. “the theory put forward by Kosslyn et al. in 2001”. We look forward to
your messages & submissions. The final aim, remember, is for us to produce
a truly important and widely disseminated volume in the classical
humanities tradition but adapted to the new online environment.
The conference is organized by the Committee for Communication and Media
Theory of the Hungarian Academy of Sciences and by Corvinus University of
Budapest. Scientific Committee: Prof. Dr. Petra Aczél, Corvinus University
of Budapest, Prof. Dr. András Benedek, Budapest University of Technology
and Economics, Prof. Dr. Kristóf Nyíri, Hungarian Academy of Sciences.
Organizing Committee: Eszter Deli (coordinator) <eszter.deli(a)uni-corvinus.hu>,
Judit Sebestény <judit.sebes(a)uni-corvinus.hu>, Evelin Horváth <
evelin.horvath2(a)stud.uni-corvinus.hu>, Márton Rétvári <
martongergely.retvari(a)uni-corvinus.hu>, Lilla Szabó <
lilla.szabo(a)uni-corvinus.hu>.
Following upon the present semi-final call for abstracts, in the course of
the following months many circulars and personal messages will be sent out,
but please note that the best way to inform yourself about how our
preparations proceed is to look at the http://www.hunfi.hu/nyiri/FFF/

by DUCOG - Dubrovnik Conference on Cognitive Science
Dear All,
We are pleased to announce the XIII. Dubrovnik Conference on Cognitive
Science, which is devoted to the topic of Cognitive and Functional
Perspectives on Emotions. The conference will take place between 19 and 22
May 2022 in Dubrovnik, Croatia.
Emotions are at the core of the human experience. After long having been
marginalized in the study of cognition, affective phenomena are
increasingly moving into the focus of researchers from across cognitive
science. In spite of this renewed interest, however, there remains much
disagreement about the evolutionary origins, functional profiles, and
universality of human emotions. This conference aims to bring together
researchers from a range of diverse fields to present and discuss
state-of-the-art research about the mechanisms and functions of emotions in
our species.
Invited speakers will include:
Carlos Crivelli — De Montfort University, UK
Guillaume Dezecache — Université Clermont Auvergne, France
Alan Fiske — University of California, Los Angeles, US
Debra Lieberman — University of Miami, US
Lawrence Ian Reed — New York University, US
Disa Sauter — University of Amsterdam, Netherlands
For more information please visit: https://ducog.cecog.eu
or email us at: ducog(a)cecog.eu
As of December 2021, we are planning to hold a traditional, in-person
conference in Dubrovnik. Please keep in mind that DUCOG 2022 is contingent
on global pandemic conditions. In case we are unable to hold the conference
in Dubrovnik, we will announce further details before registration starts.
Poster abstract submissions will be open between 1 January and 28 February
2022.
