[Koglist] [CEU Cogsci Talks] REMINDER: Federico Rossano (MPI Leipzig), Wednesday, November 26, 5PM, Department of Cognitive Science

by Dora Kampis

Dear All, This is a reminder that the next talk in the CEU Cognitive Science seminar series will be given by: Federico Rossano (MPI Leipzig): Date: Wednesday, November 26, 2014, 5 PM Location: Department of Cognitive Science, CEU, Frankel Leó út 30-34., Room G15 Title: From social attention to social expectations: a developmental and comparative perspective In this talk I will report on a series of studies focusing on the development of social expectations and social accountability through ontogeny and phylogeny. In particular, I will investigate the interplay between social attention, social expectations and cooperation. First I will report on studies on joint attention and voice following in human infants, chimpanzees and dogs. Then I will report on the emergence of social norms in young children, in particular in relation to the social institution of property. Here I will present a series of studies investigating the ontogeny, phylogeny and cross-cultural variation of property norms and concepts, highlighting the role that communication and cooperation play in the sustainability of property as a social agreement. I will then show how preschoolers have a clear sense of procedural justice and hold their peers accountable in terms of the procedure used to allocate resources. Finally, following up on the topic of cooperation and resources allocation, I will present a series of studies on cooperation in orangutans, assessing what factors facilitate or inhibit collaboration, whether their underlying motivation is self- or other-regarding and ultimately, to what degree orangutans develop specific social expectations concerning how others will behave in situations in which both cooperation and selfish defection are possible. PLEASE NOTE: Our seminar room has a limited capacity. Please arrive early to ensure you get a seat. The talk will begin promptly at 5.

[Koglist] Lifeline extension - 5th World Congress and School on Universal Logic - Istanbul, 2015]

by Universal Logic

UNILOG'2015 - 5th World Congress and School on Universal Logic Istanbul, June 20-30, 2015 http://www.uni-log.org You can submit your abstract up to December 5 Since 2005 UNILOG has been a major event in logic, dealing with all aspects of logic and gathering top researchers from all over the world. The 1st edition was in Montreux, Switzerland (2005), the 2nd in Xi'an, China (2007), the 3rd in Lisbon, Portugal (2010), the 4th in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil (2013). The 5th edition will happen in Istanbul in 2015. In UNILOG'2015 there will be a school with about 30 tutorials followed by a congress with many workshops and invited speakers including Melvin Fitting, Bruno Poizat, Benedikt Löwe, Olivia Caramello, Luciano Floridi, Ernest Lepore, Ahti-Veikko Pietarinen. As in previous editions there will also be a contest (for this edition: The Future of Logic) and a secret speaker (a speaker whose identity is revealed only at the time of her/his/its talk). The tutorials of UNILOG'2015 will provide a serious background for a general knowledge of the logical universe They are divided into three categories: 1) History of Logic: the logic of Aristotle, Leibniz, Kant, Hegel, etc. 2) Logic and XXX: Logic and Music, Logic an Colours, Logic and Nonsense, Logic and Information, Logic and the Theory of Relativity, etc 3) Theorems: Compactness theorem, Completeness theorem, Lindström theorem, Gödel's incompleteness theorem, etc (these theorems will be presented in a universal perspective, i.e. examining what are the general vs particular features) During the congress there will be an amazing variety of workshops - The Idea of Logic: Historical Perspectives - Representation and reality: humans, animals and machines - Philosophy of non-classical logics - Computational Creativity, Concept Invention and General Intelligence - C3GI - Connexive Logics - Logic and the Web etc. The event is organized in combination with the 10th Panhellenic Logic Symposium https://samosweb.aegean.gr/pls10/ that will happen in Samos Island, Greece (the island where Pythagoras was born), June 11-15, 2015. A travel by bus from the nearby port of Kusadasi in Turkey up to Istanbul will be organized with stops on famous historical sites: Ephesus, Troy, etc. Special arrangements will exist for participants who wish to attend both conferences. UNILOG'2015 is sponsored by the Association of Symbolic Logic This means that students can apply for a grant to come: http://www.aslonline.org/studenttravelawards.html

[Koglist] invitation to a talk on`The Cognitive Dimension of Aesthetic Experience: A Kantian Approach`-`The Cognitive Dimension of Aesthetic Experience: A Kantian Approach`

by Krisztina Biber

The CEU Department of Philosophy cordially invites you to a talk (as part of its Departmental Colloquium series) by Mojca Küplen (Hungarian Academy of Sciences) on `The Cognitive Dimension of Aesthetic Experience: A Kantian Approach` Tuesday, 25 November 2014, 5.30 PM, Zrinyi 14, Room 412 ABSTRACT It is often claimed that aesthetic and cognitive values are distinct. This view has been commonly attributed to Kant’s aesthetic theory and his strict distinction between cognitive (or conceptual) judgments and aesthetic judgments. Since aesthetic judgments are dependent on the feeling of pleasure or displeasure alone, it is claimed that aesthetic experience is essentially noncognitive. I aim to express a critique of this view attributed to Kant and to show that aesthetic experience of beauty and ugliness is a cognitive activity. I develop my proposal in light of Kant’s theory of aesthetic ideas put forward in the Critique of the Power of Judgment. I address the question whether and how his theory can be interpreted in a way that can explain the cognitive significance of ugliness and beauty. The course of my argument is the following: First, I show in what sense an aesthetic idea is valuable, namely, because it is the only way in which we can have some sort of perception of ideas that go beyond sensory experience. Second, I aim to show that aesthetic ideas need not only be of what is beautiful, but can also be of what is ugly and gives rise to displeasure. Third, I aim to explain the association of ugliness and beauty with aesthetic ideas by referring to Kant’s notion of the reflective judgments and the a priori principle of purposiveness.

[Koglist] invitation to a film screening and panel discussion -` Fixed - The Science/Fiction of Human Enhancement`-Monday, 24 November, Nador 11. Building / room 004

by Krisztina Biber

In the frame of the Hungarian Science Festival 2014 "Far Seeing Science: Responsible Answers for the Future" The CEU Department of Philosophy and CELAB - Center for Ethics and Law in Biomedicine - cordially invite you to a film screening and panel discussion Fixed - The Science/Fiction of Human Enhancement Interdisciplinary event Monday, 24 November, Nador 11. Building / room 004 19:15-20:30 Film screening (with Hungarian subtitles) 20:30-21:45 Panel discussion (in English) What does it mean to function normally and is it so important? Should we fix bodies (or minds) if they do not function normally and on the other hand should we enhance people if we can do so? Where does the one (fixing) stop and the other (enhancement) begin? Does the former dehumanize people with impairments and how is the latter a challenge for an assumed common human nature? These questions are of utmost importance in research areas and disciplines such as disability and gender studies, philosophy, sociology, anthropology, law and political science. The award-winning film FIXED includes the voices of those who are most directly concerned with disabilities and normalcy assumptions, namely disabled people. As the synopsis of the film states: "Through a dynamic mix of verit, dance, archival and interview footage, FIXED challenges notions of normal, the body and what it means fundamentally to be human in the 21st century." It thus offers a unique window into the questions above. The film will be followed by a panel discussion with CEU faculty members representing gender studies, legal studies, philosophy and political science. Panel members: Emma Bullock, CELAB and Philosophy Linda Fisher, Gender Studies Simon Rippon, Philosophy Judit Sandor, CELAB, Gender Studies, Legal Studies, Political Science Moderated and organized by Maria Kronfeldner, Department of Philosophy, co-organized by CELAB - Center for Ethics and Law in Biomedicine. http://www.fixedthemovie.com/about/trailer/ Krisztina Biber Department of Philosophy Coordinator ------------------------------------------ Central European University Nador u. 9. | 1051 Budapest, Hungary Office: + 36.1.327.3806 | biberk(a)ceu.hu | www.ceu.hu
