A new theory to explain consciousness

What if our understanding of consciousness has been missing the point by trying to compare it to software? The debate on the ...
Consciousness may emerge not from code, but from the way living brains physically compute.
A new theoretical framework argues that the long-standing split between computational functionalism and biological naturalism misses how real brains actually compute.
The consciousness debate is often trapped between two extremes: either the brain is “just software” (computational ...
The familiar fight between “mind as software” and “mind as biology” may be a false choice. This work proposes biological computationalism: the idea that brains compute, but not in the abstract, symbol ...
Computer scientist Lance Fortnow writes that by embracing the computations that surround us, we can begin to understand and tame our seemingly random world. Bohr: Algebra is like sheet music. The ...
Computation in Architecture explores the critical consideration of contemporary modelling and fabrication technologies as a driver for thinking, forming and realising architecture. With a specific ...
