[koglist] invitation to a talk on “Free Will and Neuroscience” by Alfred Mele - 22 February, 5.30 PM

by Krisztina Biber

The CEU Department of Philosophy cordially invites you to a talk (as part of its Departmental Colloquium series) by Alfred Mele (Florida State University) on “Free Will and Neuroscience” Tuesday, 22 January, 2013, 5.30 PM, Zrinyi 14, Room 412 ABSTRACT A major source of scientific skepticism about free will is the belief (defended by neuroscientist Benjamin Libet, social psychologist Daniel Wegner, and others) that conscious decisions and intentions never play a role in producing corresponding actions. I discuss two serious problems encountered by any attempt to justify this belief by appealing to existing neuroscientific data.

The bi-annual Joint Action Meeting (JAM) brings together cognitive scientists and researchers from related disciplines sharing an interest in individuals’ ability to act together. � Human life is full of joint actions, ranging from a handshake to the performance of a symphony. We are highly skilled at coordinating our actions with those of others to reach common goals, and rely on this ability throughout our daily lives. What are the processes underlying this ability? How does joint action develop? What are the basic principles needed to build robotic systems that can interact with humans? What might differentiate joint action from individual action, both conceptually and in terms of experience? The scientific program will comprise oral presentations and posters addressing these questions. Contributions will present the latest research and thinking on a range of different topics, including language as a form of joint action, the interplay of perception and action in joint action, and the phylogenetic, ontogenetic, and cultural foundations of joint action. � http://somby.info/page4/page4.html � � SUBMISSIONS � We invite submissions for talks (about 20 minutes) or posters on joint action. Please e-mail an abstract with the subject “JAM submission” to JAM5in2013(a)gmail.com. The abstract should be no longer than 200 words. The email should contain your name, affiliation, and contact address. Please indicate whether you prefer a talk or a poster. Deadline for submission is 1st February 2013. � The abstract title should clearly define the work discussed. Abstracts reporting empirical studies must contain the specific goals of the study, the methods used, a summary of the results, and a conclusion. For theoretical work, the abstract should contain the specific goals and clear conclusions. Abstracts will be reviewed and authors will receive notification by email. Please note that although we do encourage submissions from a broad range of topics and perspectives, we will only be able to accept contributions that directly inform our understanding of joint action. We will do our best to accommodate your preference for talk/poster, but given the tight schedule we cannot guarantee that we will be able to accommodate your preference. � � REGISTRATION � If you would like to attend JAM 5 without presenting a talk or poster, please send an e-mail with the subject “JAM Registration” to JAM5in2013(a)gmail.com. The email should contain your name, affiliation, and contact address. Note that first authors on submissions are automatically registered. � � All participants are asked to contribute a registration fee to the meeting. The registration fee is 30 Euros for students (including PhD students) and 60 Euros for all other participants, to be paid in cash at the meeting. � � We look forward to seeing you in Berlin next summer! � Anna Kuhlen, Günther Knoblich, & Natalie Sebanz (Organizing team)

[koglist] invitation to a talk on 'Helping it' by Helen Steward - 15 January, 5.30 PM

by Krisztina Biber

The CEU Department of Philosophy cordially invites you to a talk (as part of its Departmental Colloquium series) by Helen Steward (University of Leeds) on 'Helping it' Tuesday, 15 January, 2012, 5.30 PM, Zrinyi 14, Room 412 ABSTRACT There is a long-standing debate in the literature on moral responsibility about the general idea that there is some sort of control condition on our assignment of blameworthiness to agents. In this paper, I try to defend the claims of a very ordinary, everyday locution to offer the best means of formulating a version of the control principle that stands some chance of fitting with our ethical intuitions. The locution whose merits I intend to champion is the ‘can’t help it’ locution, as used in the phrase ‘I can’t help it’, I couldn’t help it’, ‘I can’t help that’, etc.. Because the locution is in a certain sense colloquial, it tends to be avoided in philosophical discussion when getting down to precise details – though it often appears in initial, stage-setting statements of the philosophical problems surrounding the issue of control and blame. My claim here will be that none of the commonly utilised locutions with which it tends to be replaced is able properly to express the sorts of things we can express by saying, for example, ‘I couldn’t help it’. Being able to help it, I shall argue, is a distinctive and important power, and for a number of significant reasons, no other way of saying what kind of control is needed for blameworthiness will do as well.

[koglist] reminder: invitation to a talk on "Embodiment, Consciousness, and the Massively Representational Mind" by Robert Rupert - 8 January, 5.30 PM

by Krisztina Biber

The CEU Department of Philosophy cordially invites you to a talk (as part of its Departmental Colloquium series) by Robert Rupert (University of Colorado) on "Embodiment, Consciousness, and the Massively Representational Mind" Tuesday, 8 January, 2013, 5.30 PM, Zrinyi 14, Room 412 ABSTRACT In this paper, I first describe the embodied perspective on cognition. I then argue that research on embodiment has produced a wealth of data that, along with a variety of other results, support a massively representational view of the mind. According to this view, the brain is rife with representations that possess overlapping and redundant content, and many of these represent other mental representations or derive their content from them. Moreover, many behavioral phenomena associated with attention and consciousness are best explained by the coordinated activity of units with redundant content. I finish by arguing that this massively representational picture challenges the reliability of a priori theorizing about consciousness.
