Networks of the Brain
TL;DR: Models of Network Growth All networks, whether they are social, technological, or biological, are the result of a growth process, and many continue to grow for prolonged periods of time, continually modifying their connectivity structure throughout their entire existence.
Journal ArticleDOI
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.

Organizing Thoughts and Connecting Brains: Material Practices and the Transition from Individual to Group-Level Prospective Sensemaking
Ileana Stigliani,Davide Ravasi +1 more
TL;DR: This paper developed a process model that accounts for the interplay between conversational and material practices in the transition from individual to group-level sensemaking, and unpack how the materialization of cognitive work supports the collective construction of new shared understandings.
Journal ArticleDOI
Embodied cognition and the magical future of interaction design
TL;DR: The theory of embodied cognition can provide HCI practitioners and theorists with new ideas about interaction and new principles for better designs, and these ideas have major implications for interaction design, especially the design of tangible, physical, context aware, and telepresence systems.
Journal ArticleDOI
Minds - Extended or Scaffolded
Kim Sterelny,Kim Sterelny +1 more
TL;DR: It is argued that extended mind cases are limiting cases of environmental scaffolding, and while the extended mind picture is not false, the niche construction model is a more helpful framework for understanding human action.

The Impact of Physical Navigation on Spatial Organization for Sensemaking
Christopher Andrews,Chris North +1 more
TL;DR: The results demonstrate that these two approaches to providing sensemaking space are not equivalent, and that the greater embodiment afforded by the physical workspace changes how the space is perceived and used, leading to increased externalization of the sensemaking process.
Journal ArticleDOI
AlphaGo, Locked Strategies, and Eco-Cognitive Openness
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors focus on the locked and unlocked cognitive strategies of deep learning programs and argue that these differences lead to important consequences when analyzing computational AI programs, such as AlphaGo, which aim at performing various kinds of abductive hypothetical reasoning.
Journal ArticleDOI
Re-visioning clinical reasoning, or stepping out from the skull
TL;DR: An ‘ecological perception’ or ‘externalistic’ model provides a counter to the current dominant paradigm of ‘ego-logical’ cognitive reasoning – the latter abstracted from context and located inside the skull.
Journal ArticleDOI
Rethinking the problem of cognition
TL;DR: It is argued that if the authors had an ecumenical solution to the problem of cognition, they would have achieved much of what they should want from a “mark of the cognitive”, and recommended an alternative criterion of success, ecumenicals extensional adequacy.
Journal ArticleDOI
On pragmatism, assemblage and ANT: Assembling reason:
TL;DR: In this article, a pragmatist understanding of human experience, situation and reason offers a different perspective on the nature of emergent and relational space in assemblages and networks.
