psychologists, philosophers, neuroscientists, music, visual cognition,
and multimodality researchers interested in schematic structures underlying
(conceptual) meaning construction from any theoretical perspective (formal,
functional, or eclectic). The phenomena of interest include, but are not limited
to, image schemas, conceptual primitives, scripts, cross-modal
correspondences, conceptual metaphors, metonymies and blends, semantic frames,
mental and simulation models, and multimodal aspects of schematic meaning
generation. </span></p>
