Team in Krakow

Below are current and past associated student members of the Cognitive Engineering Lab in Jagiellonian University that I work with. They are a great group that is enthusiastic about research into sound, music, and time perception.

Currently, we are focused on experiments that explore the role of tonality in conscious experience of duration and the embodied aspect of music/sound perception. Future work will expand on these themes.

Status of the lab here.

Current members

Łukasz Borowiecki

PhD student in the Institute of Philosophy, Jagiellonian University

Masters (2013) in sound engineering, AGH

I’m trying to understand the relationship between temporal properties of sounds and auditory perception. Research interests: philosophy of perception, hearing research, psychophysics.

Dominika Drążyk

Masters student in cognitive science, Jagiellonian University

Licentiate (2017) in cognitive science, Jagiellonian University

My role in the team surrounds all aspects of computing, since I enjoy learning how to program hands-on. Instead of taking courses, I learn about Python through work on projects and experimental procedures needed for our experiments. I am interested in the influence of Tybetan music and Tybetan gongs on duration judgments.

Kinga Ciupińska

Masters (2018) in cognitive science, Jagiellonian University

Licentiate (2015) in cognitive science, Jagiellonian University

My research concerns the relationship between emotions and time perception.


Past Members

Agnieszka Gębuś

Masters (2018) in cognitive science, Jagiellonian University

Licentiate (2015) in cognitive science, Jagiellonian University

My research concerns the relation between changes in subjective time and attention in the auditory oddball paradigm. I am also interested in spatial representations of music.

Karolina Bednarczyk

Licentiate (2017) in cognitive science, Jagiellonian University

In this team I am responsible for programming procedures that we use in our experiments. My research concerns personal differences in music and time perception, and cultural differences in conceptions of 'self.'

Karol Przewrocki

Masters (2018) cognitive science, Jagiellonian University

Licentiate (2015) in computer science, Cracow Polytechnic University

I am responsible for engineering, programming, and data analysis. I enjoy putting complex devices together using Arduino and a solderer. My research interests are yet to be fully formed, but I am interested in complex data analysis and would like to pursue that in my masters thesis.

Sabina Krauze

Masters (2017) in cognitive science, Jagiellonian University

Licentiate (2015) in mathematics, Jagiellonian University

My life revolves around music, which I am interested in context of my research and musical practice. I try to relate these two aspects in my work as a part of this team.

Agata Wlaszczyk

Licentiate (2016) in cognitive science, Jagiellonian University

I am interested in the role of metaphors in human cognition and its computational application. My further interests include mechanisms of perception, relationship between perception and consciousness and also research about implementing various methods to investigate cognition in a virtual reality environment.

Marek Pędziwiatr

Masters (2016) in automatics, control, and robotics, AGH

Licentiate (2015) in cognitive science, Jagiellonian University

I'm interested in top-down influences on conscious visual perception – this is the aim of the PhD I currently pursue at Cardiff University. In this group I am responsible mainly for data analysis.
