Study of Intelligence C Summary of Lecture 8 on 3rd July, 2002, by Fujinami A. Participants We had 13 participants with one TA for this 8th lecture. B. We have done the followings at the seventh lecture: 1. Opening (20 min.) 2. Warming up and stretching by Shun (20 min.) 3. Reading the Varela interview (50 min.) Presenters were Osawa-san and Juha. Part-I: Lecture 1, 2, and 3 comprise an introduction to `Body and Mind’ problem. Part-II: Lecture 4, 5, and 6 helped us to get an access to our own experiences. Part-III: Lecture 7 provided us with a material to think of ‘shared cognition’, which will be a key to investigate what Self is. We studied the theoretical backgrounds of all the materials given in this class so far by reading the interview to Varela. The session concludes Part-III, where we learnt basic notions of phenomenology. ================================================================= 9th ( 8th July) An experiment of sensing (A seminar on affordance) 10th (10th July) Reading Bateson presented by Mr. Yagi and Mr. Hatakeyama 11th (10th July) An excursion: What can we express using Body? ================================================================= 12th (15th July) A Descartes game 13th (17th July) Reading Descartes presented by Mr. Sawaura and Mr. Nakazato ================================================================= ------19th July ---- Final report (1st version) 14th (22nd July) Group session: Examination of each report 15th (24th July) your final report due; conclusion ================================================================= ------25th July ---- Notification of the result Evaluation: Most participants agreed on evaluating our performance based on the final report.
