News and views on the neural organization of language. Moderated by Greg Hickok and David Poeppel. Wednesday, November 12, 2014. Computation at the neuron level - where noncomputational embodied theories need to start. It seems that some embodied theorists see no need for computation or perhaps even information processing. Rather than talking about, say, how interaural time difference (ITD). The signal, i.e., computing. Here's a quote that gives a sense of what's going on at the single neuron level:.

Talking Brains: Is a hybrid radical embodied-representational cognition model a theoretical option?
http://www.talkingbrains.org/2015/06/is-hybrid-radical-embodied.html
News and views on the neural organization of language. Moderated by Greg Hickok and David Poeppel. Tuesday, June 9, 2015. Is a hybrid radical embodied-representational cognition model a theoretical option? A recent paper by Beckes et al. Attempts to outline " a radically embodied neuroscience of attachment and relationships." The content here doesn't matter much. What I want to consider is the conclusion:. Is a hybrid model a viable theoretical option? June 17, 2015 at 1:32 AM. If this occurred in the co...

Talking Brains: Against a Motor Theory of the Mind -- From a Surprising Source
http://www.talkingbrains.org/2015/06/against-motor-theory-of-mind-from.html
News and views on the neural organization of language. Moderated by Greg Hickok and David Poeppel. Monday, June 8, 2015. Against a Motor Theory of the Mind - From a Surprising Source. I came across this abstract, which seems quite timely and interesting. In fact, it would be a decent summary of my own position as detailed in The Myth of Mirror Neurons. And the position of many others. What's interesting is that this abstract was published more than a century ago in 1911 by Walter B. Pillsbury. Is Profess...
