A huge thank you to our speakers for a great seminar yesterday, and to everyone who joined for the discussion!

Recordings of both talks are now up on our website (where you can also already sign up for next month’s seminar on 🐁)

A lot of information is encoded in dog calls and we don’t know half of it How to build AI for animal communication? Not straightforward!

Big thanks to our speakers Sarah Dagher and Virgile Daunay, and to everyone else who joined in today!

You can check out Virgile’s great talk on human laughter here (sneak peak below): braincoustics.com

We’re taking a summer break, but we’ll be back in September with more talks - see you then!
Screenshot from Virgile Daunay's Bridging Brains and Bioacoustics talk on June 25, 2025. Image shows the following text: Does volitional laughter encode information about social context? Do volitional laughs differ acoustically across contexts? Can listeners accurately decode laughter contexts? Which acoustic features vary across different contexts, and do those features affect listeners' perceptions?

Humans are visual creatures. We're missing out on so much because it's currently expensive & technical to visualize sounds.

Please help @galacticpolymath.com finish a web app to change this!
👇 $10 gets you access to the beta app. (Public release will be free, if we can reach our goal!) 🧪🔊 #edusky

Note for those of you with the good fortune to not be here in the USA: we have already done "daylight savings", but other parts of the world have not!

So eg the seminar will be at 11:00 AM EDT New York City time, which will be 16:00 Zürich time
