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.

Embodied niche construction in the hominin lineage: semiotic structure and sustained attention in human embodied cognition.
TL;DR: The embodied niche construction (ENC) hypothesis of human evolution posits that in the early hominin lineage, natural selection further modified the ancestral ape semiotic adaptations, favoring the recursive structuration of concise iconic narratives of embodied interaction with the environment.

A brain in a vat cannot break out: why the singularity must be extended, embedded and embodied
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors argue that superhuman intelligence can emerge only in a distributed fashion, in the form of a self-organizing network of humans, computers, and other technologies: the "Global Brain".
BookDOI
Reframing Information Architecture
TL;DR: This book offers a way to reconceptualize the shifting role and nature of information architecture where information permeates digital and physical space, users are producers and products are increasingly becoming complex cross-channel or multi-channel services.
Journal ArticleDOI
John Dewey's Experience and Nature
TL;DR: Godfrey-Smith and Smith as mentioned in this paper discuss art, morality, and value in the book Experience and Nature, which has great importance for a knot of issues in epistemology, metaphysics, and philosophy of mind.

Wrong side of the tracks: Big Data and Protected Categories
TL;DR: The dangers to democratic decision-making when high-performance algorithms fail to provide an explicit account of causation are described and it is demonstrated how information theory allows us to degrade predictions so that they decorrelate from protected variables with minimal loss of accuracy.
