Paper "Synchronicity in human perception of animals" presented at IVSA 2016

I have just presented my paper "Synchronicity in human perception of animals" at IVSA 2016, the annual conference of the International Visual Sociology Association (Lillehammer June 22-24th). Some 12 people were present.

Work on three wolf-related articles

Today I met with colleague Paul Thibault to commence work on two articles related to field work on human perceptions of wolves and related animals, and one article on proto-language in wolves.

The Semiotics of Animal Representations on display in London; now missing

To the 14th Gathering in biosemiotics (London June 30 - July 4), I had brought a copy of The Semiotics of Animal Representations, which I have co-edited with Kadri Tüür, as a display copy, along with discount flyers designated for the conference. After three days on display, however, the book went missing. I need it back, so that it can be displayed on at least two more conferences.
