🚨NEW BLOG🚨 “Conferences, huh. What’s the point?” @hazelvanderwalle.bsky.social @katiesvish.bsky.social & @kirtsconnor.bsky.social reflect on this conference season and why we bother going to conferences anyway. #musicscience #ICMPC18 #blog #phdlife #phd musicscience.net/2025/08/13/c...

Durham MPL world touring 🚀 love meeting up with old friends and connecting with new ones at conferences — so so lucky to have these opportunities! :,)

🔦 final poster showcase of this bad boy: MUSIFEAST-17 #ICMPC18 No fear though, as if you haven’t heard already, you can get to know via its publication doi.org/10.3758/s134... and explore the dataset on OSF osf.io/5ebz2/ and GitHub with its interactive Shiny app 🫢 github.com/HazelvdW/MUS...

Been having some wonderful and really engaging discussions with many of the #ICMPC18 attendees this year in São Paulo! So lucky to be doing research in this field alongside such brilliant and thoughtful people 🧠💫 (P.S. this work is published! You can read it here: doi.org/10.1177/0305...)

exciting news this Saturday: another article PUBLISHED!! “Thoughtscapes” takes a deeper look people’s thought landscape while listening the range of music clips and styles in the MUSIFEAST-17 stimulus set :)) 👂💭 🎨💥🎬 doi.org/10.1177/0305...

MUSIFEAST-17 stimulus set now published and available to read! link.springer.com/article/10.3... 🧞‍♀️🚀 #MusicPsych #MusicScience

cheesing 🤓! Someone’s excited hehe 👾🛸🪐⚡️🚀 #SysMus25 @sysmus.bsky.social @unioslo-ritmo.bsky.social @musicpsychologylab.bsky.social

really fun few days with a super fun bunch! Last sessions & celebrations to come on our freaky Friday 13th together 😎⭐️🪩 #SysMus25 @sysmus.bsky.social thanks @unioslo-ritmo.bsky.social!

'Thoughtscapes' - what types of thoughts emerge across different musical genres? A fascinating look at how music shapes the mind by @hazelvanderwalle.bsky.social #sysmus25

super engaging & enjoyable time meeting & workshopping with @ukrepro.bsky.social LNLs 🔬⚡️🧠

exciting discipline-specific expansions on the way from @reproducibilitea.org…! 🔭💫 #OpenResearch

Super excited to launch ReproducibiliTea’s newest reading list: “Open Research… in the Arts?” 🔬🎭🎨🎷📐 Probe the boundaries of Open Research expectations across disciplines, explore data outside the sciences, discuss challenges facing empirical and practice-based arts, and more ⭐️ Get stuck in! ☕️🫖

Present, past, & farther afield members of @musicpsychologylab.bsky.social brought together by conferences! This time, SEMPRE25 in the RNCM 🎶🔬 Day 1 done with some really super presentations from everyone 💫🔭 @charasteliou.bsky.social @curwen01.bsky.social @kirtsconnor.bsky.social

and clearly having a great time 🤓⭐️🎤

presenting MUSIFEAST-17 with it’s interactive Plotly Shiny app.R (pictured left!) which can be viewed and run via my GitHub repository github.com/HazelvdW/MUS... 🧞‍♀️🎧

Check out our @reproducibilitea.org journal club webpage reproducibilitea.org/journal-club... to get a peak into what we’ll be discussing over some hot tea in our new @ukrepro.bsky.social teapot 🫖⭐️🚀☕️

Our PhD students @hazelvanderwalle.bsky.social and @kirtsconnor.bsky.social started Durham University’s @reproducibilitea.org journal club! Based in the Music Department, our journal club hopes to facilitate discussion about #OpenResearch practices across disciplines, from the sciences to the arts

Our co-director @kellyjakubowski.bsky.social presented to Durham Comp Sci students about her @leverhulme.bsky.social project looking into music-evoked thoughts Her #musicscience team is making resources and studying different thought types evoked by #music Interested? Check out musicscience.net!

Delighted to be newly part of the ReproducibiliTea steering committee! Looking forward to bringing more arts & humanities Open Research focus and resources to the team ⭐️☕️

How transparent is music psychology as a discipline? Unfortunately not yet near acceptable levels in making data (5%), analysis scripts (1%) available, nor committing to preregistration (0%) or replications (3%). Benchmarked to psychology in graph. New #musicscience study out doi.org/10.1177/1029...

We still need help with our database! We're looking for examples of inner music in fiction and biography. Anyone welcome to submit - please share widely! More details below: musicinmyhead.org/inner-music-...

If you missed my talk but still want to learn how to make your R code more reproducible, my slides are here 🙂: daxkellie.quarto.pub/will-your-co... All the links to packages and resources I mentioned are there, so hopefully this can be a nice reference, too! #ESAus2024 #rstats #quartopub 🧪🌏

Considering they only had 4 weeks to build the study, collect the data, analyse it, & create a presentation, they did well to #replicate these. Studies that offered stimuli & materials openly (J T Mantell, @hazelvanderwalle.bsky.social @francescatalamini.bsky.social deserve a special thanks as well

Super funky getting to see the first use of my new music stimulus set (!) in a replication project by some Durham Uni undergrads! 🫢 Research replication is cool 😎 #musicpsychology #musicscience

Showing off the view we get after conducting experiments 😏

I’ve created a starter pack to collect the #musicscience and #musicpsychology related organizations and labs together in one place. Let me know if there is anyone to add! go.bsky.app/Eao5vcf
