Book time! My first one, “Aesthetic Rhythms” is officially out. It is the result of the research I’ve started five years ago at @CaFoscari that continues at @unicomplutense, in both cases with the support of the @MSCActions.

@xurxomar Preciosas fotos. Será deformación profesional, pero no he podido evitar pensar en la portada del enorme "The Embodied Mind" 😅

Conocí la obra de Bill Viola siendo un niño y desde entonces ha acompañado mi vida y vertebrado mi trabajo. Justamente hoy presento mi libro sobre su obra en la @snegra. Un artista en busca de lo humano.

@fcastroflorez @casimirolibros Muchas gracias por tus palabras, Fernando.

This paper is part of my @CareerUna4 project AFFECTANCE at @UCMccinf. I want to thank @DioVicen for the conversation when this paper was just a mere idea, the participants at the Roma 3 workshop on Pragmatism and Enactivism and MoCS members with whom I discussed this paper (8/8).

[Carlos Vara @Xeronda]

My paper "Unfulfilled habits: on the affective consequences of turning down affordances for social interaction" has been published at PhenCogSci
The intuition behind it is that not acting upon inviting affordances has an impact on future behavior (1/8)

[Carlos Vara @Xeronda]

In a very Kantian way, I finish the paper by offering a connection between affordances and habits: "Habits risk being blind without affordances; affordances risk being clumsy without habits" (7/8)
