- Oct 9, 2008 10:29pm (3 reviews) futurism, linguistics, philosophy, alfred-korzybski, semiotics http://www.generalsemantics.org/
A non-profit organization established in 1938 by philosopher and futurist Alfred Korzybski, author of Manhood of Humanity and Science and Sanity: An Introduction to Non-Aristotelian Systems and General Semantics. Korzybski's general semantics involves the exploration of new systematic methods for evaluating and improving the ways individuals integrate their own worlds of symbols/language with non-verbal realities. Many noteworthy philosophers and futurists--from R. Buckminster Fuller to Alvin Toffler--have associated with the Institute over the years.
GS also publishes a quarterly journal, ETC: A Review of General Semantics.

- PLoS ONE: Culture Shapes How We Look at Faces
- Aug 20, 2008 9:31pm (1 review) cognitive-science, psychology http://www.plosone.org/article/info%3Ado...
- "Face processing, amongst many basic visual skills, is thought to be invariant across all humans. From as early as 1965, studies of eye movements have consistently revealed a systematic triangular sequence of fixations over the eyes and the mouth, suggesting that faces elicit a universal, biologically-determined information extraction pattern."
"[Our] results demonstrate that face processing can no longer be considered as arising from a universal series of perceptual events. The strategy employed to extract visual information from faces differs across cultures."
