Beauty beyond the subjective and objective | Filippo Contesi “The true problem of aesthetics then, is not whether or not we believe that beauty is in the eye of the beholder, but why our behaviour around beauty doesn’t match up with our stated beliefs.” iai.tv/articles/beauty-beyon…

#CognitiveFutures in the Arts and Humanities conference in Catania was incredible 🏛️🌋 I presented our mixed-method study to pinpoint the role of emotions in the sense-making process with art. Big thanks to the organizers and all who joined and shared their insights! #5ECognition

Replying to @talalrahwan @Nature
I remember the times (around 2000) when I was a believer in the relevance of metrics. Given enough time and enough wrong incentives, humans find ways to pervert any concept, no matter how sound.

Mockery of using metrics to evaluate science. Metrics is for lazy people who can count but do not want to or have no expertise to read papers to evaluate the work. Unfortunately these people often control resources.
Our paper just got covered by @Nature. We went under cover and contacted a "citation boosting" service. We managed to buy citations that appeared in a Scopus-indexed journal, providing conclusive evidence that citations can be bought in bulk!! nature.com/articles/d41586-0…
