Visual Feedback Dominates the Sense of Agency for Brain-Machine Actions

Olaf Blanke, Nathaniel Evans, Aaron Schurger, Steven Gale

Recent advances in neuroscience and engineering have led to the development of technologies that permit the control of external devices through real-time decoding of brain activity (brain-machine interfaces; BMI). Though the feeling of controlling bodily m ...

Vestibular contribution to bodily self-consciousness and multisensory cortical processing

Christian Pfeiffer

How does the self relate to the body? Bodily self-consciousness, i.e. the sense of being a subject bound to a body, involves a first-person perspective (1PP), i.e. the sense of being directed at the world. Prior research suggests that bodily self-conscious ...

Visual consciousness and bodily self-consciousness

Olaf Blanke, Nathan Quentin Faivre, Roy Salomon

Purpose of review: In recent years, consciousness has become a central topic in cognitive neuroscience. This review focuses on the relation between bodily self-consciousness - the feeling of being a subject in a body - and visual consciousness - the subjec ...

Breathing and sense of self: Visuo-respiratory conflicts alter body self-consciousness

Olaf Blanke, Bruno Herbelin

Bodily self-consciousness depends on the processing of interoceptive and exteroceptive signals. It can be disrupted by inducing signal conflicts. Breathing, at the crossroad between interoception and exteroception, should contribute to bodily self-consciou ...

Breathing and sense of self: Visuo-respiratory conflicts alter body self-consciousness (Reprint from Respiratory Physiology & Neurobiology, vol 203, pg 68-74)

Multisensory Origin of the Subjective First-Person Perspective: Visual, Tactile, and Vestibular Mechanisms

Olaf Blanke, Roberto Martuzzi, Christian Pfeiffer, Valentin Marc Schmutz, Julio Duenas

In three experiments we investigated the effects of visuo-tactile and visuo-vestibular conflict about the direction of gravity on three aspects of bodily self-consciousness: self-identification, self-location, and the experienced direction of the first-per ...

Embodied space in architecture, cognitive neuroscience, and virtual reality

Isabella Maria Pasqualini

Recent findings in cognitive neuroscience enable improved understanding of embodiment and egocentric space in architecture. From a historical perspective the human body has been inferred as a reference in the debate of architectonic proportion. It was sugg ...

Emergence of the cerebral self, from Theodor Meynert to Antonio Damasio

Pierre Magistretti

Antonio Damasio's works have brought emotions into line with current trends in neuroscience. They are conceived as the addition, to a perception, of the somatic effects it has induced. Nevertheless, this continuous and relatively steady process of body per ...

Erweiterung des Funktionalismus 1930-1950 : mit Beispielen aus der Schweiz und Schweden

Christoph Wieser

Functionalism serves as the guiding concept of this piece of work, on the example of which shall be traced the changes that took place in modern architecture between 1930 and 1950. This choice seems appropriate since Functionalism is a particularly relevan ...
