The entry of a virus into the host cell always implies the alteration of certain intracellular molecular relationships, some of which may involve the recovery of ancient cellular activities. In this sense, viruses can be used as archaeological tools for identifying unexpressed activities in non‐infected cells.

Redundancies in the communication of music: An operationalization of Schutz's ‘Making Music Together’

open access: yesSystems Research and Behavioral Science, Volume 38, Issue 6, Page 923-939, November/December 2021., 2021
We elaborate Alfred Schutz's theory of musical communication empirically. Our technique for analysing musical communication aligns Schutz's sociological theory with the mathematics of anticipatory systems. Music, we argue, can be considered as an anticipatory system that articulates through its diachronic unfolding, fundamental symmetries which can be ...

A Systematic Investigation of Gesture Kinematics in Evolving Manual Languages in the Lab

open access: yesCognitive Science, Volume 45, Issue 7, July 2021., 2021

The relation of categorical linguistic content with continuous kinematics is therefore poorly understood. Here, we reanalyzed the video data from a gestural evolution experiment (Motamedi,
