    "abstract": "How might neuroaesthetics move beyond beauty and begin to study meaning? While neuroaesthetics is broadly\nconcerned with the brain’s role in processing art, it has typically focused on perceptual preferences concerning the question of\nbeauty. To cut deeper ontologically the field might consider exploring other basic kinds of meaningful categorical judgments\npeople routinely make about artifacts, including those related to an object’s purpose and status as art. Providing a point\nof entry for an empirical approach, a methodology is described where participants judge objects (chairs) for higher-order\nqualities beyond beauty, including functionality, and art-objecthood. Results suggest that artifacts can be used for probing\ndeeper empirical questions concerning the neural basis for aesthetic judgments and object processing. In this manner, we can\nbegin to understand the meaning of art with respect to both its form and function.",
