Tweeter Is a research project exploring the notion of anthropomorphic cultural transmission. I have developed a number of different projects that form a main body of work. Cultural transmission describes the way people or animals within a society or culture tend to learn and pass on new information. The key aspect of culture is that it is not passed on biologically from the parents to the offspring, but rather learned through experience and participation. A large number of bird species engage in cultural learning; such learning is critical for the survival of some species.
