The BonVision paper is now published @elife (elifesciences.org/articles/6…).
BonVision is a software that allows easy creation and control of closed-loop visual environments – perfect for all your visual experiments.

We are incredibly excited to announce we are part of the eMOTIONAL Cities project, which will explore how the natural and built urban environments shape brain circuits and human behaviour. Join us to discuss the future of people-centred, robust cities: web2.spi.pt/eMOTIONAL-cities…

Open-source tools are revolutionizing neuroscience. Thanks to @neurogears @MiniscopeTeam @DeepLabCut @OpenEphys and many others, we now have free tools that can all be integrated through @bonsai_rx. We've published a quick guide to help you get started 💪

Remember this? "Anything you can do with Flash you can do with JS+Canvas+SVG"
Clearly written by a non-artist coder who never used Flash, equivalent to:
"Anything you can do with a paintbrush you can also do with a toothpick and an infinite amount of time."

I think everyone could use a lighthearted/happy story right now so here goes:
At the beginning of the pandemic I went through some painful personal stuff and would often go out at night for long walks because no one was around and I couldn’t sleep anyway. One night I was walking

Is there a new visual stimulus / environment that you would like to create? Ask us here if its possible using BonVision!!
On the 15 Dec at 3-4pm GMT we will discuss these in a live coding session (DM for link), and possibly walk through making one of them with @glopesdev

2weeks ago @Warcraft Shadowlands was released with a some of my music.

This is a corollary to the @tylercowen / Thiel concept of the Great Stagnation. Where has all that extra productivity gone? It doesn't appear manifest in the physical world, for sure, though you can argue it *is* there in the internet world. There are a few possible theses...

Our letter to @vonderleyen this morning - we, scientists, need you to stand up and say – ‘I defend European science and the destruction of our ambitions for progress and prosperity – for the future of Europe - will not happen under my watch.’ #RescueHorizonEurope

Colleagues at @AllenInstitute, friends and my fellow neuroscientists, I just pushed a new paper which I believe is important to the field. We found a way to remove independent noise in systems neuroscience! biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

We built a fully-open pressure-control ventilator that anyone can build from off-the-shelf parts for $1,300. I want to reflect a bit on what we did and how a rapid response to Covid turned into a larger attempt to swipe back some of the capital of health /1

This is another brilliant piece by Mateusz. Theres a lot of beauty in this view of robustness of behavior stored in the dynamics of a platitude of factors. You are probably right on this, but at worst you are not totally wrong.
After a break from writing, in my post I am exploring the question of the stability of behaviour, with birdsong as an example: why is the song of a yellowhammer always recognizable as a yellowhammer song, even though it is learned in every generation?

I am also pushing back on the idea that all that matters is that it is legal. That is never all that matters.
