Concepts (10)
- Cognitive Light ConeConcept defining self by the spatiotemporal scale and nature of goals a system can pursue; limits of concern demarcate identity.
- AffordancesGibson's ecological psychology concept: relationships between organism abilities and environmental features; central to research question.
- Bodhisattva VowCommitment to achieve awakening for benefit of all sentient beings; practical design principle for advancing intelligence; meta-goal of expanding one's cognitive boundary
- StressDefined as discrepancy between current and optimal state; key driver of homeostatic action and intelligence across all systems.
- Lucid DreamingPhenomenological state where dreamer becomes aware of dreaming; used in Tibetan Buddhist practice to experimentally realize illusory nature of self.
- Mnemonic ImprovisationCentral concept: the dynamic ability to rewrite and remap information (memories) onto new media and contexts across multiple scales (behavioral, genetic, physiological).
- SelfletsLevin's model of continuous cognition as series of frames, each ~100-300ms thick; each Selflet is a temporal agent separated from others by time.
- Contemplative PracticeMeditative training that progressively opacifies the self-environment partition by modelling QRF dynamics.
- PolycomputationBiological architecture where multiple competing/cooperating multi-scale agents develop interpretations of molecular and biophysical states rather than committing to single interpretation.
- Heidegger's Poiesis
