did semantic blocking in class today (‘name as many animals as you can in 30 seconds’) and it remains my favorite demo, 10/10
Humanity did that. Science did that. Publicly-funded research did that. Excellent universities did that. Diversity did that. International cooperation did that.
Artemis II is a perfect example of what we can do at our best.

My name is Arlee Vallin, and I am an undergraduate Biospychology major with a minor in Speech, Language, and Science Disorders at UCSB. I am conducting a research study examining the experiences of Latinx families with children diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) who communicate via augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) devices, and more specifically, understanding parents’ perspectives and experiences with these tools. I am also interested in examining the different perspectives of each parent within one family. If you are interested, participating involves completing an online survey that will take approximately 10 minutes to complete. Your participation is completely voluntary, and your responses are completely confidential. If you are interested in participating, please use the link below to access the survey. We welcome multiple surveys per family; do one survey per parent: English: https://forms.gle/awN4q1jKRkRXGAtf8 Spanish: https://forms.gle/iN5E7c6NZK4zqt5PA If you have any questions, contact me at arleevallin@ucsb.edu or Professor Laurel Brehm, Department of Linguistics, University of California, Santa Barbara, lbrehm@linguistics.ucsb.edu. Thank you for considering participation in this research.
Seeking Latinx parents of kids who use/once used AAC devices for a BA thesis survey on how to design these tools better. Please feel free to circulate widely.
Just out: A nice write-up in Phys.org about our Proc B paper (includes a link to the paper itself OA):

I’m going to put this out there - I have some funds to run lab experiments involving prosody and segmental articulation. I’m happy to collaborate with people who want to do this work but don’t have much funding, especially given the federal funding catastrophe.

🧪Hello all! I'm here with a #sourcerequest for @nature.com. I'm writing up a piece on low-tech lab tools. We place a lot of importance on technological innovation, but what are the simple things (DIY maybe?) that you find yourself turning to again and again? Please RT and let me know!
