Introduction
I'm interdisciplinary researcher with background in philosophy and cognitive science. My research interest circle around 4E cognition, phenomenology (applied to empirical endeavor and theoretical as well), consciousness studies and interplay between those fields. I'm passionate about philosophical underpinnings of modern theories of mind and cognition and different ways of incorporating those into science, art and technology.

This study aims to investigate how daily activities affect mood in the context of social distancing guidelines enforced during the COVID-19 pandemic. Using Ecological Momentary Assessment (EMA) administered four times a day during a two-week period, we asked participants (N = 91) about their mood and the activities they engaged in. Seven individual...

The aim of the research project is to identify the cognitive and neural mechanisms engaged in the formation of the subjective experience of sensory substitution (SS). We plan to focus on three main research problems:
1) subjective experience of SS characteristics (we plan to investigate how participants experience visual information through SS devices);
2) neuronal consequences of SS (we plan to test the functional reorganisation of the brain engaged in SS with magnetic resonance);
The project will investigate how the substituted information provided by three SS devices (BrainPort, Enactive Torch, Colorophone) is experienced and how it can be integrated. In the first phase of the project we will develop behavioural procedures (such as shape or colour identification tasks). In the second phase of the project we plan to apply these tasks in a single research group over a series of meetings. Each person will take part in approximately one two-hour study every two weeks throughout the year. The participants will be tested individually. This part of the project will be preceded by an MRI scan (RS fMRI, DTI, T1). Throughout the second phase of the project, participants will perform a variety of SS device-based tasks.

Using microphenomenological interview method I'm studing different stages of subjective experience of being immersed in multimedial piece - "At least for a while" by Daniel Crook. The main focus of study is to explore bodily correlates of this feeling, which then could be used to operationalise experimental procedure which employs also third-person methods. Results of my study will be used to build scenario for Dream Screen project's movie.
The aim of this research project is to investigate different approaches to naturalization of phenomenological tradition in modern researches on consciousness in cognitive science. Im committed to 4E approach in form of neurophenomenology (Varela, Thompson, Petitmengin et. al.) and front-loaded phenomenology on the other hand (Gallagher, Zahavi et. al).
Im particularly interested in bordes of conscious experience, and altered states of consciousness like: dream, mystical experience, psychodelic drug effects, meditation, immersion, alterations in body schema, and their cognitive functions (or lack of).
