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.

Embodiment and phenomenal qualities: an enactive interpretation
TL;DR: The authors argue that an older debate in phenomenology concerning Husserl's notion of hyletic data can throw some light on contemporary debates about qualia and phenomenal consciousness, which tend to ignore important considerations about bodily experience and how specific kinds of bodily experience can shape one's consciousness of the world.
