Narrative and Cognitive Modelling: Insights from Beckett Exploring Mind’s Complexity

2018 Marco Bernini 2 citations

Abstract Complex systems exacerbate a common problem for scientific enquiry: the difficulty of creating models able to discriminate fundamental elements or patterns from random behaviours or corollary components in the event or process at issue. This chapter argues that a similar tension between order and randomness has been a chief modelling problem of Samuel Beckett’s narratives, tied to his...

On the Nature and Normativity of Imagination

ANU Open Research 2018 Alma K. Barner

As a child, I often imagined that I was a space astronaut. Today I imagined what I could have for lunch and what I could wear for a concert. Pilots imagine performing water landings in an emergency. We might imagine full grown trees, while planting tree seeds. We use imagination to plan daily activities, prepare for important events, evaluate past choices and actions, predict other people’s...

The Problem of Representation between Extended and Enactive Approaches to Cognition

AMS Dottorato Institutional Doctoral Theses Repository 2018 Marta Caravà

4Es approaches to cognition draw an unconventional picture of cognitive processes and of the mind. Instead of conceiving of cognition as a process that always takes place within the boundaries of the skull and the skin, these approaches hold that cognition is a situated process that often extends beyond human agents’ physical boundaries. In particular, supporters of the extended mind theory and...

Logiche dell’azione: contenuto e raffigurazione nell’enattivismo radicale e in Wittgenstein / The logic of action: content and representation in radical enactivism and Wittgenstein

Rivista Italiana di Filosofia del Linguaggio 2018 Alfonso di Prospero

Daniel Hutto’s proposal is to compare Wittgenstein’s Philosophical Investigations to Enactive Theory of Mind. In this paper, we try to come back to Hutto’s works on the Tractatus logico-philosophicus . We retain, as Hutto, that there is a strong continuity between early Wittgenstein’s thought and his later conceptions. But we hold that in the Tractatus the more characteristic theses...

Musical creativity and the embodied mind

Music & Science 2018 Dylan Van der Schyff, Andrea Schiavio, Ashley E. Walton et al. 121 citations

The phenomenon of creativity has received a growing amount of attention from scholars working across a range of disciplines. While this research has produced many important insights, it has also traditionally tended to explore creativity in terms of the reception of products or outcomes, conceiving of it as a cognitive process that is limited to the individual domain of the creative agent. More...

How to leave Descartes behind

Epistemology & Philosophy of Science 2018 Karim Zahidi 2 citations

Both mainstream cognitive science and analytic philosophy of mind remain wedded to the Cartesian picture of the mind as an isolated, self-sufficient, and constitutively individual phenomenon. However, recently approaches to the mind (e.g. extended mind thesis, enactivism) that depart from the standard view have emerged. Aunifying thread that runs through these approaches can be summed up in the...

Fenomenologia a eksperymenty empiryczne

Rocznik Kognitywistyczny 2018 Ośrodek Badań Filozoficznych, Filip Stawski 1 citation

In recent years, in cognitive science (especially infl uenced by the concept of the embodied mind), have been emerging proposals to use phenomenology methods in the cognitive considerations, and overcome the so-called explanatory gap.Good examples of these proposals are neurophenomenology and front-loaded phenomenology, which have been briefl y characterized.Next, I will describe the...

NEUROFENOMENOLOGIA E MEDITAÇÃO: BREVES APONTAMENTOS PARA O DIÁLOGO ENTRE PRÁTICAS CONTEMPLATIVAS E AS CIÊNCIAS COGNITIVAS ENATIVISTAS NO SÉCULO XXI A PARTIR DA NOÇÃO EMERGENTISTA DE DETERMINAÇÃO DESCENDENTE

Simbio-Logias Revista Eletrônica de Educação Filosofia e Nutrição 2018 Leonardo Ferreira Almada 1 citation

From an investigation of the theoretical, structural, methodological, and conceptual rudiments of the neurophenomenology, such as developed by Francisco Javier Varela, I seek, at first, to investigate the possibility of a theoretical model whose purpose consists in the integration between the subjective experience and the cerebral dynamic. To the study of the fundamental diagnosis of...

PRÁTICAS CONTEMPLATIVAS E TOMADA DE DECISÃO: A RELAÇÃO ENTRE A NEUROFENOMENOLOGIA, MEDITAÇÃO E A REGULAÇÃO TOP-DOWN DAS EMOÇÕES

This article has as its objective to analyze the relationship between the human decision making processes and self-regulating capacity / in the development of top-down regulation, in this particular case, by means of contemplative practices, principally mindfulness meditation. This debate is supported upon the nexus established between the cognitive and emotional processes, searching for...
