Out-of-body illusion induced by visual-vestibular stimulation

Olaf Blanke, Bruno Herbelin, Hsin-Ping Wu, Sophie Jacqueline Andrée Betka, Florian Lance, Estelle Nakul

Out-of-body experiences (OBEs) are characterized by the subjective feeling of being located outside one's physical body and perceiving one's own body from an elevated perspective looking downwards. OBEs have been correlated with abnormal integration of bod ...

Emotion Recognition in a Multi-Componential Framework: The Role of Physiology

Gelareh Mohammadi

Emotions are rich and complex experiences involving various behavioral and physiological responses. While many empirical studies have focused on discrete and dimensional representations of emotions, these representations do not fully reconcile with recent ...

The Dimension of the Body in Higher Education: Matrix of Meanings in Students’ Diaries

Simon Nessim Henein, Ramiro Tau

In this paper, we attempt to show some consequences of bringing the body back into higher education, through the use of performing arts in the curricular context of scientific programs. We start by arguing that dominant traditions in higher education repro ...

Cogno-Vest: A Torso-Worn, Force Display to Experimentally Induce Specific Hallucinations and Related Bodily Sensations

Olaf Blanke, Hannes Bleuler, Jevita Potheegadoo, Oliver Alan Kannape, Masayuki Hara, Kenny Jeanmonod, Atena Fadaeijouybari

Recent advances in virtual reality and robotic technologies have allowed researchers to explore the mechanisms underlying bodily aspects of self-consciousness which are largely attributed to the multisensory and sensorimotor processing of bodily signals (b ...

Breathing affect self-other voice discrimination in a bodily state with increased otherness

Olaf Blanke, Nathan Quentin Faivre, Giulio Rognini, Hyeongdong Park, Pavo Orepic

A growing number of studies have focused on identifying cognitive processes that are modulated by interoceptive signals. Here we investigated whether interoception affects self-processing, by assessing changes in self-voice perception as a function of resp ...

TMS-induced control of bodily self-consciousness by combining non-invasive brain stimulation and immersive virtual reality

Matteo Franza

Our brain constantly receives and integrates a flow of sensory and motor information that shapes the way our body is represented. Several experimental approaches have been proposed to alter the body representation, by manipulating exteroceptive or interoce ...

Subjective feeling of re‐experiencing past events using immersive virtual reality prevents a loss of episodic memory

Olaf Blanke, Bruno Herbelin, Lucie Bréchet, Andrea Serino, Robin Mange

Introduction: Personally meaningful past episodes, defined as episodic memories (EM), are subjectively re-experienced from the natural perspective and location of one's own body, as described by bodily self-consciousness (BSC). Neurobiological mechanisms o ...

First-person body view modulates the neural substrates of episodic memory and autonoetic consciousness: A functional connectivity study

Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville, Olaf Blanke, Bruno Herbelin, Thomas William Arthur Bolton, Nathan Quentin Faivre, Baptiste Gauthier, Robin Mange, Florian Lance, Lucie Bréchet

Episodic memory (EM) is classically conceived as a memory for events, localized in space and time, and characterized by autonoetic consciousness (ANC) allowing to mentally travel back in time and subjectively relive an event. Building on recent evidence th ...

Cognitive neuroprosthetics for investigating and restoring body perception

Marco Solcà

Our brain constantly receives and integrates a flow of multisensory bodily inputs that are responsible for the way our body is represented and consciously experienced. However, in some pathological conditions, patients might experience altered perceptions ...

Reconciling Being in-Control vs. Being Helped for the Execution of Complex Movements in VR

Ronan Boulic, Bruno Herbelin, Thibault Serge Mario Porssut

Performing motor tasks in virtual environments is best achieved with motion capture and animation of a 3D character that participants control in real time and perceive as being their avatar in the virtual environment. A strong Sense of Embodiment (SoE) for ...

Characterization of multi-channel intraneural stimulation in transradial amputees

Silvestro Micera, Stanisa Raspopovic, Fiorenzo Artoni, Francesco Maria Petrini, Edoardo D'Anna, Pablo Garcia del Valle, Ivo Strauss, Giacomo Valle

Although peripheral nerve stimulation using intraneural electrodes has been shown to be an effective and reliable solution to restore sensory feedback after hand loss, there have been no reports on the characterization of multi-channel stimulation. A deepe ...

The Architectonic Experience of Body and Space in Augmented Interiors

Olaf Blanke, Isabella Maria Pasqualini, Andrea Serino, Maria Laura Blefari

The environment shapes our experience of space in constant interaction with the body. Architectonic interiors amplify the perception of space through the bodily senses; an effect also known as embodiment. The interaction of the bodily senses with the space ...

Comparison of linear frequency and amplitude modulation for intraneural sensory feedback in bidirectional hand prostheses

Silvestro Micera, Stanisa Raspopovic, Francesco Maria Petrini, Edoardo D'Anna, Ivo Strauss, Pablo Garcia del Valle, Giacomo Valle, Francesco Iberite

Recent studies have shown that direct nerve stimulation can be used to provide sensory feedback to hand amputees. The intensity of the elicited sensations can be modulated using the amplitude or frequency of the injected stimuli. However, a comprehensive c ...

Multisensory interactions in peripersonal space and their contributions to bodily self-consciousness

Petr Grivaz

What is the relevance of the body and body-transformed sensory information for subjective experience? In the last two decades, paradigms from cognitive neuroscience have demonstrated that the subjective sensations of possessing a body (body ownership, BO), ...

A Motion Capture Study to Measure the Feeling of Synchrony in Romantic Couples and in Professional Musicians

Pierre Magistretti, Delphine Preissmann, Joan Llobera Mahy

The feeling of synchrony is fundamental for most social activities and prosocial behaviors. However, little is known about the behavioral correlates of this feeling and its modulation by intergroup differences. We previously showed that the subjective feel ...

Changing motor perception by sensorimotor conflicts and body ownership

Olaf Blanke, Roy Salomon, Michiel van Elk, Joan Llobera Mahy, Natalia Fernandez

Experimentally induced sensorimotor conflicts can result in a loss of the feeling of control over a movement (sense of agency). These findings are typically interpreted in terms of a forward model in which the predicted sensory consequences of the movement ...

Distinct contributions of Brodmann areas 1 and 2 to body ownership

Rolf Gruetter, Olaf Blanke, Andrea Serino, Wietske Van der Zwaag, Roberto Martuzzi, Sebastian Dieguez Falcon

Although body ownership – i.e. the feeling that our bodies belong to us – modulates activity within the primary somatosensory cortex (S1), it is still unknown whether this modulation occurs within a somatotopically defined portion of S1. We induced an illu ...

Predicting Subjective Sensation of Reality During Multimedia Consumption Based on EEG and Peripheral Physiological Signals

Touradj Ebrahimi, Philippe Hanhart, Martin Rerabek, Jong Seok Lee, Eleni Kroupi

Sensation of reality refers to the ability of users to feel present in a multimedia experience. As 3D technologies target to provide more immersive and higher quality multimedia experiences, it is important to understand Quality of Experience (QoE) and sen ...
