If you're in Madrid, come say hi! I'm giving a talk titled "Embodied Cognition and Scientific Expertise: An Interdisciplinary Exploration" in the AEGEA (Applied Epistemology Group) talk series at the UAM March 11 at noon Sala de Juntas, Módulo VII, Fac. de Filosofía y Letras

Just submitted a BBS commentary (w/ @edbaggs) on the paper "Let’s go WILD: Increasing Inclusivity in Theories of Developmental Psychology" To make psychology more inclusive we need to confront the WEIRDness of our methods & metatheoretical commitments! osf.io/preprints/psya…

I'm happy to announce that this September I'll be joining the University of Murcia on a Saavedra Fajardo grant for a 5-year research project followed by a tenure track professorship! Really looking forward to the project (more info soon) and to working with great friends there!

Last call to register to attend the workshop! It starts tomorrow!!

Our 2-day online workshop "Perspectivism and Realism In Science and Mind" is coming up soon, and it looks like it's going to be great! Attendance is free and open to all, but please register in advance to receive information on how to join us: embody.group/prism2024

One week left to submit your proposal!!

@AntonellaTrama3 Your post reminded me of "Perception: A Very Short Introduction" (by Brian Rogers), which describes well how different assumptions about the nature of perception shape whether illusions are seen as scientifically interesting or not. Just two passages that came to mind:

The power of perceptual illusions is to reveal the nature of the mind. I do not know who said this, but I am convinced it's true. I also have the impression that phil of mind were more interested in illusion in the early days than today. Has the study of illusion lost momentum?

@KonradTWerner @russellmphil Yes, I'm in Europe too. It's at 1:30pm here 😆

@gui_cogsci @russellmphil It's ridiculous, it should be later not earlier here.... what an embarrassing mistake🤦 So, it's 8:30 plus 5 hours...🤔🤣

Happening tomorrow! Come see me and @gui_cogsci talk about the future of #enactivism !

@KonradTWerner @russellmphil Where are you, Konrad??

@russellmphil @gui_cogsci God,I've just realized it would be 3:30 am my time zone🤦

…at 8:30AM Brasilia time (GMT-3), and will feature Russell Meyer (@russellmphil) and Gui Sanches de Oliveira (@gui_cogsci) debating the distinction between Utopian and Scientific Enactivism. It’s going to be great! Write us an email to get the link.
