The GestaltReVision Lab spent the past week diving deep into our research projects, exploring connections between our interests, and learning from one another.

Our annual retreat isn’t just an investment in scientific growth, it’s also a reminder that great research is built on strong teams.

New paper alert 🚨 @eleftheriapistolas.bsky.social discusses Ganzfeld Art in her new paper now out in #PACA! Together with @corinnakuehnapfel.bsky.social Boris Quétard, Liv Smets and Johan Wagemans!

At @gestaltrevision.bsky.social we love when people come to visit and share all things science! Thanks for stopping by @fundayilmaz.bsky.social!

Check out the new Art & Perception recounting #VSAC2025! It features abstracts from our lab by Johan Wagemans, @eleftheriapistolas.bsky.social, Maarten Leemans, @chrislinden.bsky.social, Elisabeth Van der Hulst, Anne-Sofie Maerten, Michiel Willems, Stefanie De Winter and @lisa-kossmann.bsky.social!

Very pleased to share that our article on preferences for complexity at different levels of order is now out in PACA! 🎉Not all types of complexity were appreciated similarly, but all were liked better under high order!
