Consciousness and Embodiment

This session will be moderated by Anna.

How does the mind hook into the body and the world, here in 'meat-space?' How do we project our consciousness into bodies, culture, and relationships? My sources will be Heidegger and Merleau-Ponty, with new formulations from Shaun Gallagher's 4E Cognition (embodied, embedded, enactive, and extended) , and some of my own theories of Subjectivity.

Short interview with philosopher Shaun Gallagher about how new models of cognition are changing how scientists understand consciousness
