Mind in arts, humanities and sciences

Do you experience fissions or fusions with my concept of the mind and self? And what exactly is in this image A.A.I. by @agnieszkakurant?
See 'Developing the Fission-Fusion Concept', thanks to @SKAPE_Ed, esp. @TheoBourgeron, Sofie & Inani @UoESSPS:

In our next Film Seminar on 26 March, @_mirandaanders will use Steve McQueen's Small Axe series as a case study to explore how the concept of 'fission-fusion' #cognition impacts the making of films and film characters.

@OliveFSmith @jules_rawlinson I'm in a network exploring expression of the Aristotelian golden mean of 'eutrapelia' in diverse early modern art forms; moderation become entangled with ideas of naturalism through ideas like sprezzatura. There's also the need to express passions or literally break your heart.

[SKAPE @skape_ed]

In this two-part blog series @_mirandaanders explores the notion of fission-fusion cognition drawing from humanities, arts, social science, and natural sciences. Highly relevant for our times. More info on https://t.co/ywOViXfivi. @RoyalSocEd @YoungAcademySco @HCAatEdinburgh

@suchprettyeyes @CODIfringe @Pip__T @SchoolofPPLS @HCAatEdinburgh Looks like a show of interest to many on at #edfringe! Interesting from extended mind view too with tendency to privilege creativity as process that happens in brain(-body) rather than as distributed; tho new tools like Bing Creator - used to make my flyer : ) - make more visible

[Miranda Anderson @_mirandaanders]

@suchprettyeyes @CODIfringe @Pip__T @SchoolofPPLS @HCAatEdinburgh Show with @Pip__T suggested interesting connections: we both analysed use of contemporary tech, Pip also tackled monetisation of words' value through poetic interventions & I discussed ways cognitive approaches illuminate how literature expands our minds. How about yours so far?
