Discussing Cognitive Semiotics
On 17/06/2022 it was pleasure to discuss about Claudio Paolucci’s Cognitive Semiotics in the context of the seminars by Vittorio Gallese’s on his Neuroscience & Humanities YT channel, with Claudio and Vittorio themselves and Fausto Caruana. In case, you can see it here. Very happy of it, apart from regularly mispronouncing Godfrey-Smith as Godfrey-Lewis (why? Argh!)
Periplo at SMC22
This year SMC has not been organized by me (as the previous two online edition, blame COVID). It was in St. Étienne and with my colleague Valeriya Korol we presented a paper, “For LISA. Music Composition from Gravitational waves” explaining the process that went from Valeriya’s GWD data, for the LISA mission, to my piece for prepared piano. On July 28th we also had the chance to present it at LISA meeting. You can check the paper here. And the music is here.
