Visual preference and neuroaesthetics meeting
 
A one and a half day event on visual preference will take place at the University of Liverpool on June 11th and 12th (morning). 
This year we have teamed up with the IAEA (International association for empirical aesthetics) and the theme of the first day will be neuroaesthetics.
 
Keynote:
Professor Anjan Chatterjee
"The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly of Beauty"
Center for Cognitive Neuroscience (CCN) and Department of Neurology
University of Pennsylvania
 
The Visual Properties Driving Visual Preference (VPDVP) is a yearly meeting conceived as a round-table discussion, with national and international attendees.
 
VPDVP started in 2015 and the 2018 event is therefore the fourth workshop. The format is such that a small group of experts presents their work and debate, and the number is kept low so we can sit around a long table. It is the most important regular meeting in this field in Britain. 
More information, including abstracts from past events, is available from the website:
