A Masterclass on Enactivism and Cognition (w/ Shaun Gallagher)
RSam Podcast
Ecological Psychology Meets Enactivism
This chapter examines the interplay between ecological psychology and enactivism, focusing on concepts like affordances and direct perception. It contrasts Gibsonian and inactivist viewpoints on the nature of information in cognitive processes, exploring deeper ontological questions of realism and constructivism.
Prof Shaun Gallagher is a philosopher working on embodied cognition, enactivism, phenomenology, and philosophy of mind. He is the Lillian and Morrie Moss Chair of Excellence in Philosophy at the University of Memphis and holds a secondary research appointment at the University of Wollongong. Prof Gallagher is the author and editor of numerous books, including Embodied and Enactive Approaches to Cognition, Oxford Handbook of 4E-Cognition, The Phenomenological Mind, and Enactivist Interventions. In this episode, we discuss the enactivist approach to cognitive science and philosophy of nature.
