Premature Journal Announcement indeed.
To be fair they do advertise it as a Magazine:
"Neuro-Linguistic Programming is an awkward name for an elegant discovery made in the 1970s...."
There could well be a PhD based on that statement alone?
An interesting presentation by Parashkev Nachev (UCL) on Wearable Technology & the Human Brain occurred at The Wearable Technology Conference in London last week. Hopefully the presentation will be published as promised. He suggested that attempting to utilise captured EEG data to resolve a sufficient number of control conditions could be compared to pointing a satellite at Wembley Stadium and trying to use the data to explain the offside rule!

Subject: Neurocreator -- A Word of Caution
Dear Colleagues,
Yesterday, I passed on the announcement of a new publication titled Neurocreator. When I was able to visit their web site, I found that I may have been overly impressed by the launch announcement.
This is an art magazine by well-intentioned amateurs rather than a research journal. The journal is published by a local training centre for art that labels itself a college rather than a college based within a research university. None of the people involved seems to be active in neuroscience or in research; rather, these seem to be artists who are trying to understand how to apply ideas from neuroscience to the arts.
While I specifically did not endorse the publication, I passed on the announcement under the misleading impression that it is a journal. It is not.
My apologies,
Ken
