Today, I'm publishing a small toolbox for Matlab which enables you to run simple adaptive staircase procedures. Its theoretical basics can be found in Levitt's 1971 influential article titled "Transformed up-down methods in psychoacoustics". Its code flow is inspired on code previously written by Dirk Beer.
More information about the toolbox itself can be found on the project page.
Go on, check their website and check the amazing list of artists there. Alice Russell, Quantic (Soul Orchestra), the Bamboo's, the Limp Twins (time for a new album, gents) and many many more! My latest discovery? Belleruche! Another band to list to my ever growing list of kick-ass bands with female vocals (which is growing out to be somewhat of a fetish, I have to admit).
Also in my favs. playlist at the moment:
(oh, and new design incoming soonish)
I'm happy to announce I've accepted a PhD position (more importantly: they've accepted me) at the University of Birmingham school of psychology. I'll be starting October 1st of this year. I'm really very excited about it and ofcourse I'll keep you updated!
In the meantime, I'm struggling to graduate from my master, which obviously has to be finished by the time I start in Birmingham. Luckily, I've done a lot of work and I'm doing some simulations to predict the optimal conditions for my experiments and I'm about halfway writing my thesis. So I'm getting there.
Really.
Okay, so converting your website to a wiki does have its charmes, but it’s hell to set up and I really can’t be arsed to go through all the steps. So I reverted to a system I know quite well: Wordpress. Once again, bear with me - it takes some time to set up as usual.
In the meantime you can still visit my old frontpage.
