The next professor talk will take place on Wednesday, February 20, starting at 7:30 p.m. Professor Chandra Sripada will be joining the group to discuss "Empirically Investigating the Stream of Consciousness." His talk is about spontaneous streams of thought -- ideas, images, and memories -- that meander across the mind when otherwise unoccupied. Professor Sripada will report on new studies from his lab that shed light on how these streams are constructed. He will also discuss agency in the stream of consciousness: Do we actively construct streams of thought or do they passively “pop” into our minds?
