I'm Jim Davies, an assistant professor of cognitive science at Carleton University, Science of Imagination Laboratory. I approach cognitive science through artificial intelligence: I create computer models of visualization. My goal is to create a computer program that imagines visual scenes the same way people do, with the same content in the same places.

If you would like to invite me to come to your organization to give a talk, please see the list of talks I am ready to give.

If you are interested in working with me please see my note to potential collaborators.
You can see my CV. I also maintain the Cognitive Science Summaries webpage and the Brain Areas Mnemonics wiki .
