tailieunhanh - Aesthetic experience: A Problem in Praxialism

Regarding the neural correlates of these operations, Chatterjee (2003) suggested that early visual processing of the basic features of artworks and other aesthetic stimuli takes place in occipital brain regions, like any other kind of stimuli. However, features processed in intermediate stages, such as shape or composition, can engage frontal-parietal attentional circuits, which enhance the processing of those attributes within the ventral visual stream (Chatterjee, 2003). He anticipated that the tasks of stating preferences and making decisions about objects would most likely be associated with activity in the dorsolateral frontal and medial frontal cortices. . | Action Criticism Theory for Music Education the refereed scholarly journal of the Action for Chanoe in Music Education Thomas A.
