This is Your Brain on Art – Neuroscience News
The last century marked a Cartesian effort to dissociate mind from body, reason from emotion, language from the lived and embodied realities in which it is used. While early psychologists ousted the study of mental phenomena from their science, focusing solely on observable behaviour, the violent compuatationalist backlash which they provoked threw away the baby with the bathwater, alongside everyone happening to be in the apartment at the time. Only recently have people started to pay attention to both the mental and the physical constraints which shape our thinking. The newfound realisation that higher cognition and our sensorimotor systems form an interconnected and dynamic whole places theorising at a much firmer footing, and promises a more unified, coherent, and comprehensive linguistics and cognitive science.

New research demonstrates that it could be easy to trick the mind and trigger an out-of-body experience by getting a person to watch a video of themselves with their heartbeat projected on to it. The findings could lead to new treatments for people with perceptual disorders and also help dieters.
New research demonstrates that triggering an out-of-body experience (OBE) could be as simple as getting a person to watch a video of themselves with their heartbeat projected onto it. According to the study, it's easy to trick the mind into thinking it belongs to an external body and manipulate a person's self-consciousness by externalizing the body's internal rhythms. The findings could lead to new treatments for people with perceptual disorders such as anorexia and could also help dieters too.

The Neuroscience of Aesthetic Experience By G. Gabrielle Starr
In Feeling Beauty, G. Gabrielle Starr argues that understanding the neural underpinnings of aesthetic experience can reshape our conceptions of aesthetics and the arts. Drawing on the tools of both cognitive neuroscience and traditional humanist inquiry, Starr shows that neuroaesthetics offers a new model for understanding the dynamic and changing features of aesthetic life, the relationships among the arts, and how individual differences in aesthetic judgment shape the varieties of aesthetic experience. Starr, a scholar of the humanities and a researcher in the neuroscience of aesthetics, proposes that aesthetic experience relies on a distributed neural architecture—a set of brain areas involved in emotion, perception, imagery, memory, and language. More important, it emerges from networked interactions, intricately connected and coordinated brain systems that together form a flexible architecture enabling us to develop new arts and to see the world around us differently. Focusing on the “sister arts” of poetry, painting, and music, Starr builds and tests a neural model of aesthetic experience valid across all the arts. Asking why works that address different senses using different means seem to produce the same set of feelings, she examines particular works of art in a range of media, including a poem by Keats, a painting by van Gogh, a sculpture by Bernini, and Beethoven’s Diabelli Variations. Starr’s innovative, interdisciplinary analysis is true to the complexities of both the physical instantiation of aesthetics and the realities of artistic representation.
