Cretien van Campen is author, editor and scientific researcher in the fields of social science and fine arts. He lives in the Netherlands.

Author

He is author of the books “Gestalt van Goethe tot Gibson” (Gestalt from Goethe thru Gibson), [1] “Beeldillusies” (Pictorial Illusions), [2] “Tussen zinnen” (Between Senses), [3] and “The Hidden Sense”. [4] In the first two books he explored the crossroads of artistic and scientific experiments with visual perception. From the mid-nineties he focussed on the subject of multisensory perception and synesthesia in art and science, resulting in the bestselling Tussen zinnen in the Netherlands and the internationally acclaimed The Hidden Sense.

Editor

He is editor of the Leonardo online bibliography Synesthesia in Art and Science, Campen, Cretien van (Ed.), Bulat Galeyev and Greta Berman. Leonardo online bibliography Synesthesia in Art and Science and web editor of Synesthetics Netherlands, a non-profit organization, hosting e.g. the Netherlands web community of synesthesia. He started editing during his studies as an editor of Psychopolis, an academic magazine of theoretical psychology. After graduation, he compiled a series of bibliographies on health care for the Netherlands Institute of Primary Care (NIVEL). From 1994-2000 he was later editor-in-chief of the scientific journal Psychology & Maatschappij (Psychology & Society), an interdisciplinary social scientific journal that was based in the critical psychology movement.

Scientific researcher

As a senior scientific researcher is he affiliated with the Netherlands Institute for Social Research (SCP), and a independent researcher and consultant at Synesthetics Netherlands . He obtained a M.A. in psychology with subsidiaries in philosophy and cultural sciences, and a Ph.D. in history of art (and psychology) at Utrecht University, the Netherlands. In the last decades he has developed two lines of research: one in perception and one in quality of life (see sections below).

Fields of interest

I. Perception

In his Ph.D. study that resulted in the book Gestal from Goethe thru Gibson (1994),[1] he linked the history of art to the history of science. He showed that the apparent rise of Gestalt psychology in perception research in the 1910s had its roots in late 19th century art history in Germany. The study was done in the context of the interdisciplinary Working Group Iconic Processes including art historians, psychologists, physicists and anthropologists from several Dutch universities, . For a wider audience he wrote the book Pictorial Illusions (1994),[2] showing the links between artistic and scientific experiments with visual perception since the Renaissance. The book received attention from national television and art and science festivals. After finishing his thesis, his interests moved to the perception of music. Soon after he found the intriguing phenomenon of synesthesia on the crossroads of music and visual art. With artist and color expert Clara Froger, he started a series of experiments of synesthesia, combining scientific and artistic methods of investigation.[5] The results were published nationally and internationally. [6][7][8][9] The experiments became popular and got attention from hundreds of synesthetes in the Netherlands, mediated by articles and items in the Dutch media. The Netherlands web community of synesthesia and a number of yearly workshops and conferences on synesthesia in art and science. The demand for information on synesthesia resulted in the book Tussen zinnen [3] and the original perspective on synesthesia that was developed in collaboration with synesthetes, artists and scientists in the Netherlands led to the publication of The Hidden Sense: Synesthesia in Art and Science by the MIT Press.[4] Since then he has been consulted on synesthesia and the senses in a number of projects, among them RASA, Unilever UK and Rabobank Netherlands.

II. Quality of life

During his work as an editor of bibliographies in health care, [10] [11] [12] [13] [14] [15] he became interested in the subject of quality of life, focussing on health and happiness. He participated in series of studies on quality of health care services from the patient’s perspective at the Netherlands Institute of Primary Health Care (NIVEL) and Maastricht University [16] [17] [18] [19] [20] Later he did a number of studies into quality of care and quality of life in nursing homes, a co-operation of the NIVEL institute and the Free University Amsterdam. [21] [22] [23] [24]

In 1998, he moved to the Netherlands Institute of Social Research (SCP), the national institute on well-being, where he broadened the scope from health and health care to citizen’s participation in work, leisure time activities and social activities. At SCP he published a series of research reports on the quality of life and participation of frail elderly and persons with physical disabilities [25] [26] [27] [28] [29]

[PM positive psychology] [30] He participated in conferences on comparisons of quality of life in the Netherlands and Japan and South Korea. [31] [32] Recently he edited the book Values on a Grey Scale: Elderly Policy Monitor 2008. [33] His article with SCP-collegue Jurjen Iedema, entitled Are persons with physical disabilities who participate in society healthier and happier?[26] was nominated as outstanding article of the year by the International Society of Quality of Life.
