Mind's Eye
A mental image is an experience that, on most occasions, significantly resembles the experience of 'perceiving' some object, event, or scene, but occurs when the relevant object, event, or scene is not actually present to the senses. There are sometimes episodes, particularly on falling asleep ( hypnagogic imagery) and waking up ( hypnopompic imagery), when the mental imagery may be dynamic, phantasmagoric and involuntary in character, repeatedly presenting identifiable objects or actions, spilling over from waking events, or defying perception, presenting a kaleidoscopic field, in which no distinct object can be discerned. Mental imagery can sometimes produce the same effects as would be produced by the behavior or experience imagined. The nature of these experiences, what makes them possible, and their function (if any) have long been subjects of research and controversy in philosophy, psychology, cognitive science, and, more recently, neuroscience.

The Mind's I
''The Mind's I: Fantasies and Reflections on Self and Soul'' is a 1981 collection of essays and other texts about the nature of the mind and the self, edited with commentary by philosophers Douglas R. Hofstadter and Daniel C. Dennett. The texts range from early philosophical and fictional musings on a subject that could seemingly only be examined in the realm of thought, to works from the twentieth century where the nature of the self became a viable topic for scientific study. Summary The book's chapters are each made up of a previously published work by authors such as Jorge Luis Borges, Alan Turing, Richard Dawkins, Raymond Smullyan, John Searle, Stanisław Lem, Thomas Nagel (as well as Hofstadter and Dennett themselves), each followed up by a commentary by Hofstadter and/or Dennett. Dennett and Hofstadter both support the idea that we can learn much about human minds and souls by exploring human mentality in terms of information processing. Dennett and Hofstadter are b ...

2012 World Monuments Watch
The World Monuments Watch is a flagship advocacy program of the New York-based private non-profit organization World Monuments Fund (WMF) that calls international attention to cultural heritage around the world that is threatened by neglect, vandalism, conflict, or disaster.

Mind's Eye Theatre
''Mind's Eye Theatre'' is a live action role-playing game (LARP) based on the White Wolf World of Darkness universe, sharing a theme and setting with the table-top role-playing game '' Vampire: The Masquerade'' and with two revisions, '' Vampire: The Requiem'' and ''Mind's Eye Theater: Vampire The Masquerade''. (The rules for ''Mind's Eye Theatre'' have likewise been revised.) Other games or "venues" include: '' Werewolf: The Forsaken'', '' Mage: The Awakening'', '' Changeling: The Lost,'' and more. Conflicts and skill challenges are settled in other editions with a "rock, paper, scissors" system often referred to as "throwing chops" or "hand jamming". The 2005 ''Mind's Eye Theatre'' system, however, used a random card-draw mechanic. Every player carries a deck of ten playing cards (2-10, plus an Ace), and adds a skill modifier to their draw. The game possesses many rules both for gameplay and player safety. One main advantage of using the ''Mind's Eye Theater'' system is the a ...

Adler states: "Morris is highly compelling throughout, both in terms of technique and sonic creation." ''The Penguin Guide to Jazz'' wrote that "Morris' dogged concentration on melody and his refusal to fall back on harmonic cushions and props is communicated to his three partners, all of whom also have a strong stake in this brand of ragged improvisation."
