WAYS OF ENACTION
III International Colloquium on Colours and Numbers (ICCN)
11 - 13 September 2017, Fortaleza, Brazil
www.lia.ufc.br/~logia/ways/
Contemporary philosophical discussion have been developing tenets
in pragmatism (broadly construed) to motivate it as an alternative
philosophical foundation for a comprehensive understanding of
cognition, opposed to a far-reaching representationalist tradition.
They call attention to the import of inherited and embodied practices
and cooperation in order to understand language, intentionality and
cognition. They take seriously evolving biological systems and
situated individuals interacting in communities over time as
preconditions of our rationality, features often dismissed as not
central in the representationalist tradition.
More recently, enactive approaches incorporate further biological
insights into the discussion of cognition, by calling attention to
basic facts about living organisms such as their perpetual activity of
self-construction (autopoiesis), their need to be constantly adapting
to the changing conditions of the environment (adaptivity), and their
selective responsiveness to specific aspects of the environment
creating their own world of significance (enaction). Following on this
trend, radically enactivist approaches, then, take the bold movement
of proposing the complete removal of any residue of representational
content in the explanation of cognition in basic minds, not only for
simple organism but also at human level.
Together with embodied, embedded, ecological approaches, this research
program has been very successful in providing explanations for a wide
variety of basic cognitive phenomena. Now, the enactive approach to
cognition faces the challenge of proving itself relevant for the
investigation of traditional problems related to higher level
cognition involving notions such as information, representation,
thought, etc. To tackle such problems, this conference will welcome
submissions on the following topics:
* Topics of Interest
- Enactivism x Representationalism
- Enactivism and Pragmatism
- Enactivism and Language
- Enactivism and Intentionality
- Enactive approaches to Perception, Memory, Imagination
- Enactive approaches to Formal Sciences as Logic and Mathematics
- Cognition and Artificial intelligence without content
* Submissions
We accept abstracts containing from 700 to 1000 words written in
English describing your work in some of the topics above. Accepted
works will be presented in time slots of 30 minutes.
Abstracts should be sent to:

planned to be launched after the conference. Authors of selected
abstracts will be invited to submit complete papers to this volume.

Caros colegas,
este evento sobre cores e números foi pensado para ser uma plataforma de discussoes no Nordeste brasileiro sobre filosofia da linguagem, da matemática, da logica e da mente.
Nele, eh encorajado que temas importantes em filosofia analítica encontrem diálogo com outras tradições, como a fenomenológica.
Em 2013, tivemos uma conferência dedicada ao colapso da primeira filosofia de Wittgenstein. Em 2015, tratamos de razões para cores serem importantes para diferentes filósofos e filosofias. Em 2017, pretendemos avançar discussões em enativismo.
Vale destacar que o novo livro de Daniel Hutto e Erik Myin sobre Radical Enactivism será lançado neste evento em setembro com a presença de seus autores.
Todos os interessados sao bem vindos em fortal!
Abraços,
Marcos
