Extended cognition workshop – Amsterdam, June 27th-28th 2011

To mark the end of Catarina Dutilh Novaes’ VENI-project on formal languages and the new appointment of Julian Kiverstein at the philosophy department of the University of Amsterdam, a workshop on extended cognition will take place in Amsterdam on June 27th--28th (exact location to be determined).

Confirmed speakers so far are:

• Richard Menary (Wollongong)
• Julian Kiverstein (Edinburgh/Amsterdam)
• Helen de Cruz (Leuven)
• John Protevi (LSU)
• Catarina Dutilh Novaes (Amsterdam)

There will also be a few slots for contributed papers. We are looking in particular (though not exclusively) for papers in the spirit of ‘second-wave EM’ (Sutton) or ‘cognitive integration’ (Menary). Abstracts of around 500 words should be sent to cdutilhnovaes [youknowwhat] yahoo.com no later than April 10^th.

Deadline for submission: April 10^th 2011.

Notification of acceptance: April 27^th 2011.

Mark of the Cognitive Posts

Last year I blogged through some of the principal ideas that went into a paper on Noë's Enactivism.  (Link to the paper below.)  Thanks to Gennady Erlikhman and Anthony Morse for helpful comments via the blog and drafts.  (Thanks as well to Nivedita Gangopadhyay and Larry Shapiro for comments on a draft.)

Now I'm sort of blogging my way through ideas regarding the mark of the cognitive here.  I'm not yet sure there is a paper here though.  Feedback welcome.
