Bone conduction facilitates self-other voice discrimination

Olaf Blanke, Nathan Quentin Faivre, Oliver Alan Kannape, Pavo Orepic

One's own voice is one of the most important and most frequently heard voices. Although it is the sound we associate most with ourselves, it is perceived as strange when played back in a recording. One of the main reasons is the lack of bone conduction tha ...

Breathing affects self-other voice discrimination in a bodily state associated with somatic passivity

Olaf Blanke, Giulio Rognini, Nathan Quentin Faivre, Hyeongdong Park, Pavo Orepic

A growing number of studies have focused on identifying cognitive processes that are modulated by interoceptive signals, particularly in relation to the respiratory or cardiac cycle. Considering the fundamental role of interoception in bodily self-consciou ...

Auditory externalization of a remote microphone signal

Vincent Pierre Olivier Grimaldi

A remote microphone (RM) system can be used in combination with wearable binaural communication devices, such as hearing aids (HAs), to improve speech intelligibility. Typically, a speaker is equipped with a body-worn microphone which enables to pick up th ...

Increased functional connectivity of the intraparietal sulcus underlies the attenuation of numerosity estimations for self-generated words

Olaf Blanke, Giulio Rognini, Nathan Quentin Faivre, Jevita Potheegadoo, Michael Eric Anthony Pereira, Giedre Stripeikyte

Previous studies have shown that self-generated stimuli in auditory, visual, and somatosensory domains are attenuated, producing decreased behavioral and neural responses compared to the same stimuli that are externally generated. Yet, whether such attenua ...

Dissecting self-voice perception: From bone conduction to robotically-induced self-other voice misattribution in healthy listeners

Pavo Orepic

Inspired by the prominent theory suggesting that auditory-verbal hallucinations (AVH) - the sensation of hearing voices without present speakers - arise as misattribution of inner speech towards external agents, my thesis revolved around self-voice percept ...

Breathing affect self-other voice discrimination in a bodily state with increased otherness

Olaf Blanke, Nathan Quentin Faivre, Giulio Rognini, Hyeongdong Park, Pavo Orepic

A growing number of studies have focused on identifying cognitive processes that are modulated by interoceptive signals. Here we investigated whether interoception affects self-processing, by assessing changes in self-voice perception as a function of resp ...

Low frequency sound field reconstruction in a non-rectangular room using a small number of microphones

Hervé Lissek, Vu Thach Pham

An accurate knowledge of the sound field distribution inside a room is required to identify and optimally locate corrective measures for room acoustics. However, the spatial recovery of the sound field would result in an impractically high number of microp ...

Good Vibrations and Unknown Excitations

Dalia Salem Hassan Fahmy El Badawy

Inspired by the human ability to localize sounds, even with only one ear, as well as to recognize objects using active echolocation, we investigate the role of sound scattering and prior knowledge in regularizing ill-posed inverse problems in acoustics. In ...

Audio-visual sensory deprivation degrades visuo-tactile peri-personal space

Olaf Blanke, Hervé Lissek, Andrea Serino, Hyeongdong Park, Isabella Maria Pasqualini

Self-perception is scaffolded upon the integration of multisensory cues on the body, the space surrounding the body (i.e., the peri-personal space; PPS), and from within the body. We asked whether reducing information available from external space would ch ...

Sensorimotor Induction of Auditory Misattribution in Psychosis is Linked to Neural Disconnectivity

Olaf Blanke, Alessandra Griffa, Patric Hagmann, Andrea Serino, Roy Salomon, Giulio Rognini, Silvia Marchesotti

Background: Schneiderian first rank symptoms (FRS) are characterized by a diminished demarcation of self-other boundaries, causing misattribution of self-generated thoughts and actions to external sources. We have shown that introducing sensorimotor predic ...

The Architectonic Experience of Body and Space in Augmented Interiors

Olaf Blanke, Andrea Serino, Isabella Maria Pasqualini, Maria Laura Blefari

The environment shapes our experience of space in constant interaction with the body. Architectonic interiors amplify the perception of space through the bodily senses; an effect also known as embodiment. The interaction of the bodily senses with the space ...

Sensitivity to an Illusion of Sound Location in Human Auditory Cortex

Sandra Elisabete Monney

Human listeners place greater weight on the beginning of a sound compared to the middle or end when determining sound location, creating an auditory illusion known as the Franssen effect. Here, we exploited that effect to test whether human auditory cortex ...

Unconscious integration of multisensory bodily inputs in the peripersonal space shapes bodily self-consciousness

Olaf Blanke, Andrea Serino, Nathan Quentin Faivre, Roy Salomon

Recent studies have highlighted the role of multisensory integration as a key mechanism of self-consciousness. In particular, integration of bodily signals within the peripersonal space (PPS) underlies the experience of the self in a body we own (self-iden ...

Conceptual processing is referenced to the experienced location of the self, not to the location of the physical body

Olaf Blanke, Bruno Herbelin, Andrea Serino, Elisa Canzoneri

We tested whether an experimentally induced change in the experienced location of the self by means of the Full Body Illusion (FBI) would impact high-level cognitive processing. In an implicit association task, participants saw a landscape where words, con ...

Spatial hearing rendering in wireless microphone systems for binaural hearing aids

Gilles André Courtois

In 2015, 360 million people, including 32 million children, were suffering from hearing impairment all over the world. This makes hearing disability a major worldwide issue. In the US, the prevalence of hearing loss increased by 160% over the past generati ...

"Self pop-out": agency enhances self-recognition in visual search

Olaf Blanke, Roy Salomon, Oliver Alan Kannape, Joan Llobera Mahy

In real-life situations, we are often required to recognize our own movements among movements originating from other people. In social situations, these movements are often correlated (for example, when dancing or walking with others) adding considerable d ...

Distinct illusory own-body perceptions caused by damage to posterior insula and extrastriate cortex

Olaf Blanke, Lukas Heydrich

Recent research in cognitive neuroscience using virtual reality, robotic technology and brain imaging has linked self-consciousness to the processing and integration of multisensory bodily signals. This work on bodily self-consciousness has implicated the ...

Experience Catalysts And Architecture Towards a New Tradition

Jens Badura, Jeffrey Huang, Selena Savic, Andrew James Sempere

This paper describes two research projects in the field of interactive architecture, both examples of experience catalysts; Settings which allow new insights in the aesthetic constitution and perception of environments. This term can be thought of as somew ...

Perception and Reproduction of Auditory Spatial Impression

Andreas Walther

As audio reproduction systems evolve to incorporate many loudspeakers, the potential to evoke faithful auditory spatial impressions increases. Psychoacoustic principles of auditory spatial perception, and methods for production and reproduction of acoustic ...

Comparing the neural bases of self-referential processing in typically developing and 22q11.2 adolescents

Roy Salomon, Maude Schneider

The investigation of self-reflective processing during adolescence is relevant, as this period is characterized by deep reorganization of the self-concept. It may be the case that an atypical development of brain regions underlying self-reflective processi ...
