Thinking with external representations
TL;DR: Seven ways external representations enhance cognitive power are discussed: they change the cost structure of the inferential landscape; they provide a structure that can serve as a shareable object of thought; they facilitate re-representation; they are often a more natural representation of structure than mental representations; and they lower the cost of controlling thought—they help coordinate thought.

Ileana Stigliani,Davide Ravasi +1 more

Embodied cognition and the magical future of interaction design

Georg Simmel's Theory of Money and its Relevance for Current Neuroeconomics and Psychology
TL;DR: This article developed a conceptual framework for the neuroeconomic analysis of money that is based on recent theories of distributed cognition and showed that the artefact of money activates emotions that embody social reciprocity, thus triggering distinct neuronal activity patterns that have been identified experimentally in the context of money illusion and other related behaviours.

Dan Chiappe,Kim-Phuong L. Vu +1 more

DiY (Do-it-Yourself) electronics, coin-operated relic boxes and techno-animist shrines

A crosslinguistic study into culturally motivated resemblances and variations in transferred epithet metaphors in Chinese and English

Making sense of reality through fiction : approaching memes through the intersecting lenses of cognitive linguistics and narratology
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors developed a new approach to examine how and why people use fictive narratives to cope with traumatic events by considering not only the visual and textual data of a meme, but also the contextual frames that shape the way we interact with memes in everyday online discourse.
