I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

After 5 years of data collection, our WARN-D machine learning competition to forecast depression onset is now LIVE! We hope many of you will participate—we have incredibly rich data.
If you share a single thing of my lab this year, please make it this competition.

It’s true.
Doing the same now and hoping for the same result.
Sing it!

So exhausting..
Watching it right now from Denmark 🌘
I was looking for one to share, but came up short. I think they’ve always been too quick for me!
Very nice! Judging from this picture, Boulder foxes appear to be taller and lankier than Danish foxes.
Whoever Ethan Eweed is, I congratulate him on his nomination.
I was truly surprised at the number of trees. And I’m from Maine, where we’re no strangers to trees.
Very jealous. Boats rule!
"PhD-level experts in your back pocket" is a completely nonsensical description of AI but a pretty good description of social media if you follow the right people
Got Butterflies in your Stomach? I am super excited to share the first major study of my postdoc @the-ecg.bsky.social - Now out in @natmentalhealth.nature.com! We report a multidimensional mental health signature of stomach-brain coupling in the largest sample to date www.nature.com/articles/s44...
Yes, this is rampant! And don’t even get me started on the quality of online news articles. Apparently nobody cares or has time to proofread anymore.
Major updates to our ConversationAlign R package - submitted to CRAN and JOSS today. If you're interested in computing alignment and main effects for >40 psycholinguistic dimensions in naturalistic conversation, this is the package for you reilly-conceptscognitionlab.github.io/Conversation...
The final kick is 😍😍😍
In preparation of teaching and supervision coming years I have created a webpage that provides a bit of a landing page for students to see what me and my colleagues are up to, to help carve out projects: www.wimpouw.com/collaborate....
Experimentology cover: title and curves for distributions.
Experimentology is out today!!! A group of us wrote a free online textbook for experimental methods, available at experimentology.io - the idea was to integrate open science into all aspects of the experimental workflow from planning to design, analysis, and writing.
I am once again pitching my romantic comedy:

ORGANISER(S): Izzy Wisher and Derek Parrott AFFILIATION: Aarhus University CONTACT: Izzy Wisher, izzywisher@cas.au.dk ABSTRACT: Art was, and continues to be, an active agent in societies. The first traces of artistic behaviour can be glimpsed in etched patterns produced nearly 100,000 years ago, and flourished into the rich, material culture visible in a wide array of both prehistoric and historic societies. It has the relational power to build new connections between individuals, generate cultural identities, or exert political or religious authority over a population. There have been significant efforts in recent years to shift away from “grand theories” of art – whether typological or narrative in nature – to instead appreciate the dialogical, multisensorial, and distributed engagements of art making and reception. Yet there remains a central challenge. In the fragmentary archaeological evidence of past artistic actions, how can we visualise individual artisans? In this session, we intend to bring together a diverse range of perspectives that examine art from a range of spatial and temporal contexts to identify the actions of individual artists in the past. We particularly encourage submissions that have developed new theoretical and high-resolution methodological approaches to address this challenge. Our session will not be limited in period or object type – the organisers themselves specialise in Palaeolithic art (IW) and Viking Age art (DP), but share a common theoretical thread in their conceptions of art. Themes could therefore include, but are not limited to: Material engagements in artistic practices Art and agency perspectives Craft networks and the role of the artisan High-resolution digital modelling Archaeometric approaches to art
How can we visualise the agency of art and artists in past societies? Mine and @dparrott.bsky.social's session at @tag2025york.bsky.social intends to bring together exciting new research to explore this question! Interested? Why not submit an abstract!✋ 🎨🖌️🏺
Introducing the tidynorm package! It's got convenience functions for applying your favorite vowel normalization methods to point measures, formant tracks, and DCT coefficients in a tidyverse workflow, as well as a flexible framework for defining your own normalization methods!

Check out our preprint (linked again here: osf.io/preprints/ps...) where we measured neural sensitivity to changes in semantic space while listening to a podcast. Not only do we look at word-to-word but larger chunks too (2-gram, 5-gram, 10-gram) to examine meaning construction at multiple levels.

In Nature Human Behaviour, Peter Gleick calls on scientists who are able and willing to do so to speak out publicly against the Trump administration’s attack on science, and argues that although dissent carries risks, it is riskier to stay silent. go.nature.com/3FIV7cC 🧪
