Third Thursday: T4.6: Thinking about Thinking Things Thing

Details

We're a group thinking about thinking, thinking tools, and thinking things.

This is meetup #6, and the first meetup.com kinda thing. Some of us have been meeting informally for years and this is pretty informal.

Preparation: please read Vannevar Bush's July 1945 Atlantic Monthly article: As We May Think (http://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/print/1945/07/as-we-may-think/3881/). . pdf (http://files.meetup.com/1934731/As%20We%20May%20Think.pdf) in files (https://www.meetup.com/CooperativeMind/files/) section. Sections 6-8 especially, regarding associational thinking and linking using a memory index.

There are other types of thinking - can you list them? Check out Speech Acts (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speech_act).

Mark is showing http://memex.mx . We'll talk about that and what you bring to talk about.

Thanks!
