Synesthesia - Music Composition
My website: http://oliverlugg.com/ This piece began with the funky piano riff you can hear in the chorus, and grew from there. For those of you who may not know, Synesthesia is the condition of linking ideas within two methods of sensing, such as specific colours being attributed to music

At least 3 percent of the population is thought to have some form of synesthesia—the phenomenon of blended senses, where a stimulus, like letters or numbers, can trigger a nominally unrelated sensation, like color or sound. Neuroscientist David Eagleman explains some of the amazing forms s

Trigonometry - Vocabulary of trigonometric functions
In this video will cover some of the basic vocabulary that you'll hear when working with trigonometric functions. Specifically we'll cover what is trigonometry, angles, and defining the trigonometric functions as ratios of sides. You'll hear these terms again as we dig deeper into the st

This E-Lecture discusses the fundamental ideas of generative grammar, the most influential grammar model in linguistic theory. In particular we exemplfy the main principles that account for the non-finite character of natural language as well as the phenonemon of native speaker competence.

SYN110 - Variants of Generative Grammar I
There are several problems for simple phrase structure grammars (PSG). In this first E-Lecture of a series of related videos, Prof. Handke discusses these problems and points out where and what adjustments have to be made to expand a simple PSG into a more elaborate version of a generative

Consciousness as a Problem in Philosophy & Neurobiology (John Searle)
A main intellectual scandal today is that we do not have, in philosophy or neurobiology, a generally accepted account of consciousness. In this lecture, John Searle offers the philosophical core of such an account, and explains the difficulties in getting a neurobiological account. Along t

This E-Lecture discusses and exemplifies the phenomenon of ambiguity, ranging from lexical to pragmatic. And as usual, Prof. Handke uses numerous examples to illustrate this ubiquous property of natural language expressions.
