We are pleased to announce that Brian Fiala, a postdoc at the Philosophy-Neuroscience-Psychology program of Washington University in St. Louis, will be the early career speaker in our next workshop: Animated Objects in Make-Believe! Brian will give a talk entitled “Person-Perception and Puppets: Why It’s so Easy to See Inanimate Objects as Animated” on Thursday, May 15th, 2014, along with invited speakers James Hamilton and Louise Bunce.
You can find the abstract for each talk at the workshop page. Please register, especially if you are considering attending the workshop dinner.
We can’t wait to learn more about puppets and pretense!
