Faces in clouds: why our brains see human faces everywhere
Join Professor David Alais as he investigates why our brain is hardwired to see faces in everyday items. It does so using template-matching as a short-cut. Known as 'face pareidolia', these false detections are still analysed for facial expression just as real faces are and reveal much about the importance of faces to our brain and species. The presentation will be followed by a Q&A.
