Frameworks (2)

framework
  • Embodied cognition
    associated_with
    Framework treating cognition as inseparable from bodily organization and environmental interaction; aligned with biogenic approach.
  • Synthetic Morphology
    cites
    Framework for bioengineering via active and agential matter; cited as relevant unification domain.

Claims (1)

claim
  • Cognitive Self as Plastic and Malleable
    supports
    The subject of memories and preferences is not fixed but undergoes radical substrate remodeling during lifetime; demonstrated by metamorphosis, regeneration, and bioengineering examples.

Concepts (6)

concept
  • Cognitive Light Cone
    associated_with
    Concept defining self by the spatiotemporal scale and nature of goals a system can pursue; limits of concern demarcate identity.
  • Plasticity
    associated_with
    Property of minds to adapt to radical changes in substrate, form, and embodiment across lifetime and evolution.
  • Synthbiosis
    associated_with
    Levin's proposed framework for mutually beneficial relationships between radically different intelligences.
  • Space of possible beings
    about
    All possible agents beyond natural biological species, including engineered and alien ones.
  • Plasticity of bodies and minds
    associated_with
    The capacity of cognitive systems to adapt to drastic body alterations within the lifetime of an agent; key to understanding mind-body relationship.
  • Brain–computer interface
    associated_with
    Technology enabling direct communication between the brain and an external device.
