Local vs. Global Orientation
Can humans act correctly when local bodily information conflicts with global spatial structure?
What happens when space bends — and “down” stops being globally obvious?
ibiLab combines unusual geometry with altered physical rules to study path integration, problem-solving, locomotor planning, and agency in worlds for which the body has no inherited solution.
If the center of gravity is not consistently beneath your feet, what becomes the body's reference frame?
Can humans act correctly when local bodily information conflicts with global spatial structure?
How is “where I am” updated when Euclidean geometry cannot be assumed?
How are routes and actions selected when intuitive trajectories fail?
When does the brain stop correcting its old model and begin constructing a new one?
Where is “forward” when geometry and gravity disagree?
