Gastrophysics: The New Science of Eating | Charles Spence | EP 3. Food Series
Description
This conversation is part of the series 'The Philosophy, Science, & Aesthetics of Food' ('Dare to know!' Philosophy Podcast). Charles Spence is the Professor of Experimental Psychology at the University of Oxford and the head of the Crossmodal Research Laboratory. He is interested in how people perceive the world around them. In particular, how our brains manage to process the information from each of our different senses (such as smell, taste, sight, hearing, and touch) to form the extraordinarily rich multisensory experiences that fill our daily lives. His research focuses on how a better understanding of the human mind will lead to the better design of multisensory foods, products, interfaces, and environments in the future. Today’s focus will be his book ‘Gastrophysics: The New Science of Eating’.
