If you’re the kind of person who gets excited when someone shares a research survey, then CogSci DIY lets your take your curiosity to a whole new level and join in the creation of an online research project.
From coming up with the topic to voting on the research plan and watching it all happen, this community-lead project is happening over a five week period starting June 1st 2021. You can find out more and sign up on the CogSci DIY website.
Below is a short introductory video from the CogSci DIY team:
They’ve also put together a video of various people talking about why this project is important (you might hear some familiar Lingthusiasm voices).
I’m excited to see people try new models of engaging people in linguists and demystifying some of the research process. I look forward to seeing the results of this fascinatingly experimental experiment!
It was about some civil war somewhere and the two joined but one of them surrendered right after the declaration of war but there was never a peace treaty and it was so unclear that it became like a bedtime story for the children of both. Imagine that, you don’t have to.
“What year is it?” “1337, why?” “Oh so the start of the Hundred Years’ War” “THE WHAT?” “Don’t worry it wasn’t actually 100 years” “Oh thank-” “It was 116”

Holy shizz this is old but I really wanna write about thisl.
A= Alien H=Human
A:Does this mean we could just be fictional characters that some sick mind invented?
H: Well... I don’t personally believe that is the case but yes. You and I could Just be the writings of a very emotional teenager that needs to finish cleaning his room but decided to write about us instead.
A: Was- Was that a fourth wall break?
H: eh, sometimes I pretend I AM a fictional character and break the fourth wall.
A: I can’t believe that we just all might be made up characters
H: I wasn’t expecting to deal with an existential crisis today but okay.
Okay so the aliens finally know the concept of fictional characters and a human convinces his best alien buddy to watch deadpool with him. In the movie are a lot of 4th wall breaks. Now imagine this: Deadpool:it’s like the studio doesn’t have enough budget for more x-men Alien:did he just. Did he just talk to us? Human:jup it’s a 4th wall break Alien:? Human: it basically means the character knows he’s fictional. Alien: so they have self awareness?!? Human: no it’s just… Alien: they know!?! OMG will they break this 4th wall and come to our world?!? Will they attack us?!? How can we kill deadpool he’s basically immortal?!? Does this mean we could just be fictional characters too that some sick mind invented?!? The next 5 hours are used to calm the alien down. Like always, feel free to contribute.

My body betrays me, it tires and wears while my spirit wishes to wake to never rest doing the things it loves. Yet as a human I must strike a balance between them and the spirit can’t do what it pleases if the body is dead!
