1. Pain perception Bodily sensations, for instance pains, are often thought to pose insuperable difficulties for representational theories of consciousness. Chris is never one to dodge a problem, and chapter 6 of his splendid and instructive Consciousness is devoted to outlining a perceptual/representational theory of pain, in the tradition of Armstrong and Pitcher. Perceptual theories of pain ...

Filmmaking has become an increasing focus of interest within geography, the geohumanities, and related fields. The use film ranges from enhanced forms ethnographic fieldwork to production feature-length documentaries shown at international festivals. making increasingly significant research method in itself that potential a widely recognized type interdisciplinary output. How should we interpre...

This paper presents a design for collaborative problem solving with networked representational tools, and reports on two studies—one with undergraduates in a laboratory setting and one in a high school algebra classroom. By equipping multiple participants with an array of representational resources linked through a device network, we sought to explore instances of distributed cognition through ...

Representational autonomy is a key property of an artificial agent. The type of representational structures and the role they play in the preservation of an agent’s autonomy are pointed out. The limitations of the traditional cognitivist approach and of the embodied intelligent approach to support such representational structures are described and indicated. A framework of self-organising Peirc...

The paper investigates multimodal behavior of simultaneous interpreters during ‘non-interpretation’ regarded as interruptions in the flow speech due to difficulties. Video recordings a TEDtalk on biology interpreted from English into Russian by 24 are analyzed with help quantitative and qualitative methods. distribution gestures moments indicates that referential (representational deictic) serv...

the warrant of truth has long been drawing the attention of philosophers.in order to find out the truth value one should determine first the criterion of truth. discursive or representational knowledge are related to objects external of mind and so since external circumstances are involved in occurrence of this sort of knowledge, its truth value is diminished. presential knowledge, however, is ...

Landscapes as dynamic relations between people and worlds are always incomplete. They partial understandings, evolving knowledges, edited images unfinished stories of our designed undesigned environments. Gaps within landscapes can reveal histories omitted individuals silenced, but this open-endedness also provide opportunities to contribute participate. In paper I explore how under constructio...

Abstract Human music and language are two systems of communication expression that, while historically considered to overlap, have become increasingly divergent in their approach study. Music almost certainly co-evolved emerged from the same semiotic field, this relationship as well co-origin actively researched debated. For sake evaluating content zoomusicology, we investigate a ‘bottom-up’ bi...

In this paper, we study the representational properties of numeration systems. We argue that numeration systems are distributed representationsÑrepresentations that are distributed across the internal mind and the external environment. We analyze number representations at four levels: dimensionality, dimensional representations, bases, and symbol representations. The representational properties...
