📢 Workshops are now available to book for ECVP 2026! The final workshop schedule has been published. Registered attendees have received an email with the opportunity to sign up for up to two workshops — one morning session and one afternoon session. #ECVP2026 #VisionScience

Happy to share our neuroaesthetics research line, led by @yi-joan-lin.bsky.social: 👇 below is the conceptual cornerstone of the work; proposing a framework that treats aesthetic experience as a multi-component, dynamically evolving process across multiple cognitive levels

🚨 Very happy to share our *Neuron* paper: Rethinking neuroaesthetics authors.elsevier.com/a/1miuj3BtfH... With @hansopdebeeck.bsky.social & Johan Wagemans, we argue that neuroaesthetics should move beyond a focus on beauty alone and embrace the multidimensional nature of aesthetic experience.

🎨 #AIGeneratedArt has evolved rapidly, from early experiments like #DeepDream to advanced systems such as #StableDiffusion and DALL·E 3. How do these models work and what makes them different? 🤖🖼️ 1/3 @derya-soydaner.bsky.social @unileiden.bsky.social

Tired of copying results and tables from your coding environment to your writing environment? Time to give #Quarto a try! A great solution for all your #reproducible #reporting needs. Join @elinevg.bsky.social and I at the @ecvp.bsky.social workshops to learn more!

We are on the road to @iaea-jena2026.bsky.social and excited for a week of inspiration and exchange! Keep an eye out for our labs contributions by Johan Wagemans, @eleftheriapistolas.bsky.social, @chrislinden.bsky.social, @lisa-kossmann.bsky.social, @elinevg.bsky.social and Elisabeth Van der Hulst!

Getting ready for @iaea-jena2026.bsky.social? Come check out my latest work as a poster on Friday (#17, 10:30-11:30, Carl-Zeiss-Saal): Linking appreciation for order and complexity in natural images, art, and abstract patterns! Shoutout also to two phenomenal presentations by my collaborators ⏬

The GestaltReVision Lab spent the past week diving deep into our research projects, exploring connections between our interests, and learning from one another. Our annual retreat isn’t just an investment in scientific growth, it’s also a reminder that great research is built on strong teams.

New paper alert 🚨 @eleftheriapistolas.bsky.social discusses Ganzfeld Art in her new paper now out in #PACA! Together with @corinnakuehnapfel.bsky.social Boris Quétard, Liv Smets and Johan Wagemans!

Eleftheria Pistolas@eleftheriapistolas.bsky.social · 8mo ago

I’m excited to share our new paper, “Filling in the Blanks of Ganzfeld Art”, now published in Psychology of Aesthetics, Creativity, and the Arts.

At @gestaltrevision.bsky.social we love when people come to visit and share all things science! Thanks for stopping by @fundayilmaz.bsky.social!

Eline Van Geert@elinevg.bsky.social · 8mo ago

The beginning of December, we welcomed @fundayilmaz.bsky.social for a short research visit. Thank you Funda for sharing your cross-modal research on aesthetics with us @gestaltrevision.bsky.social!

Check out the new Art & Perception recounting #VSAC2025!

Very pleased to share that our article on preferences for complexity at different levels of order is now out in PACA! 🎉Not all types of complexity were appreciated similarly, but all were liked better under high order! 🔗 doi.org/10.1037/aca0... 📄 osf.io/preprints/ps... @gestaltrevision.bsky.social

Congratulations Dr. Pistolas! Our PhD student @eleftheriapistolas.bsky.social successfully defended her PhD this week! We congratulate her on this achievement and her hard work and thank the jury members for their questions. Well done!

Eleftheria Pistolas@eleftheriapistolas.bsky.social · 10mo ago

I am delighted to share that on October 6 I successfully defended my PhD thesis titled “Inside-out dynamics of multisensory perception: A mixed-methods approach from laboratory to art contexts” and obtained the degree: Doctor of Psychology!

We are just as thrilled! Our PhD student @eleftheriapistolas.bsky.social received the Early Career Best Paper Prize for her paper published in @pec-ipe.bsky.social ⬇️

Eleftheria Pistolas@eleftheriapistolas.bsky.social · 10mo ago

I’m thrilled that our latest paper, “Wave after wave: The suggestibility of noise in the experience of multisensory hallucinations under multimodal Ganzfeld stimulation”, has just been published in i-Perception and received the Early Career Best Paper Prize! journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/...

It was a pleasure introducing PsyNet and its many applications at the Laboratory for Experimental Social Psychology today! Thanks @felixhermans.bsky.social for the invitation and all PsyNet developers, incl. @pmcharrison.bsky.social and @norijacoby.bsky.social for creating such an amazing platform!

@felixhermans.bsky.social · 11mo ago

Tremendously grateful to @elinevg.bsky.social for providing an introduction to PsyNet (www.psynet.dev) at the Laboratory for Experimental Social Psychology in KU Leuven today! PsyNet is a new platform uniquely suited to crafting complex experimental designs in an efficient manner!

The GestaltReVision Lab is en route to Paris!   We are looking forward to joining the Sixteenth International Conference on The Image and the Tenth International Conference on Communication & Media Studies.   We will contribute talks to both conferences; more information in the comments below ⬇️

#ECVP2025 In addition to yesterday's Illusion Night we would like to mention the contribution of @elinevg.bsky.social and @lisa-kossmann.bsky.social about Open-Source Toolboxes for aesthetics and perception.

Great first poster session at @ecvp.bsky.social! In case you missed me or want to chat more about #ImageFidelity and #Aesthetics or #QuantitativeImageProperties, please come find me during the breaks! #ECVP2025

The GestaltReVision Lab is headed to #ECVP2025! We are looking forward to a great conference and sharing our work! See below for more information on our contributions ⤵️

We had a great time at #VSAC2025! A big thank you to the organizers and other attendees for making this such a memorable and inspiring event. Now on the road to #ECVP2025! #VisualScienceofArt #EuropeanConferenceonVisualPerception
