Embodied Cognition and Prosthetics: Are Our Tools Part of Our Bodies and Minds? 4:00 pm
Embodied Cognition and Prosthetics: Are Our Tools Part of Our Bodies and Minds? @ Heyman Center Second Floor Common Room
Oct 15 @ 4:00 pm – 6:00 pm
Tickets
Embodied cognition theorists emphasize the role of the body and the environment in constituting mental processes. By examining how our brains interact with the rest of our bodies and how our entire bodies interact with the environment, we can learn much about human behavior and the human mind. Tools can be understood as extensions of the body, and in some cases as becoming part of the body. Does our mind extend to our tools? How[...]

Alison Fernandes: Three Accounts of Laws and Time 4:00 pm
Alison Fernandes: Three Accounts of Laws and Time @ NYU Professional Studies, room 125
Oct 24 @ 4:00 pm – 6:00 pm
Tickets
Loewer distinguishes two approaches to laws and time: Humean accounts, which deny primitive modality and explain temporal asymmetries in scientific terms, and non-Humean accounts that take temporal asymmetry and modality to be metaphysically fundamental. I’ll argue that Loewer neglects an important third approach: deny metaphysical claims about fundamentality, and explain temporal asymmetries as well as the function of modal entities in scientific terms. This pragmatist approach provides a clear ontology to science, and, and unlike[...]

Workshop on the Future of the Foundations of Physics
Workshop on the Future of the Foundations of Physics @ Pupin Hall Theory Center, 8th flr, Columbia U
Oct 26 – Oct 27 all-day
Tickets
What we are hoping for is a free, open, wide-ranging and informal conversation about a number of topics that people have lately been thinking more and more about – and that seem likely to play increasingly central roles, over the next several years, in the foundations of physics. These include questions of the emergence/fundamentality of space and time, the philosophical analysis and scientific role of chance, the relationship between physics and agency, and the possibility,[...]
