Perception, Some quote / TLDR - Coggle Diagram

- - - - Perception is evolving within those NICHES, change how we perceive
        
        Eg swim bladder, new empty niche that creates adjacent possibilities for evolution
  - - - perception COMES OUT of this perception - action loop
        
        cognitive loop evolved much later, biological perception and motor action is tightly bound
- - - - social media capitalises on attention economy to promote social movements
  - - - association of checking notifications with dopamine release, a neural stimulus that yields rewards (below, likes, retweets, affirmation)
        
        overtime, notifications as seen as anticipation of rewards
- - - - allows the co construction of knowledge through holding knowledge stable ie through abstraction
        
        Language as symbolic representation
        
        mental tool for gaining subjective distance from the contents of thought and subjective experiences
        
        never a direct recall, strips away personal experiences and musings, grounded in ANOTHER set of iconic and indexical relations
    - - it is VIRTUAL, not actual reference to symbols that gives rise to the experience of the self
  - - - top down casuality implemented on a bottom up biological machine
  - - - everything is accorded MEANING, religious or mystical inclinations
      - because brains constantly assimilate whatever is in the environment (icons and indexes) to make symbolic meaning
        it is a cognitive and sensorimotor bias, grouping things that are good/bad tgt to put a cause
- - - - invisible rules of being
  - - - a new autopoeisis
  - - - Proprioception refers to the body's ability to perceive its own position in space.
- - - - learn from and learn through them
      - identifying with other persons, understand them an intentional agents like the self
  - - - benefitting from accumulated skills and knowledge of their social group
  - - - \
- - - - appearance
      - behaviour
- - - - why we tend to group things tgt, laws of symmetry and how people see things differently
        
        directing people to do certain things like the buy button
  - - - interiorisation is making external things function as the proximal term
    - - by in dwelling, we understand joint meaning
- - - - can be used to influence people at a political level, including voting mindsets
  - - - our digital umwelt is based on how the algorithsm perceive us and feed us
- - - - increase likelihood of brain detecting stimulus, ideal mix of sensory input varies from person to person
      - eg. eating potato chip
- - - - keep attention :eyes: , keep viewership high
  - - - small number of topics
    - - aspects of the topics focussed on
    - - causal mechanisms, linkages between attributes of topics
- - - - telegraph > dissemination of information across geographically separate places. news from nowhere, addressed to no one in particular
    - - information-action ratio increases > more information but only action on limited information.
        
        importance of information is no longer derived from the possibilities of action
    - - latest piece of information priotised, little analysis
- - - - sensorimotor operation (warmth) and subjective experience/judgement (emotional closeness) are conflated, neural networks are simultaneously activated
      - complex metaphors = primary metaphor + primary metaphor
    - - but because of the way neural connections are formed, we naturally think using hundreds of primary metaphors
        
        needed for abstract thought
- - - - asians attend to context/surrounding more
- - - - we see objects within the context of the environment we are seeing. it is affected by our environment and biological differences
      - we see pictures in their cultural/historical context. there is already some top down expectation, and this informs the interpretation of what is seen
        
        connect to the LGN where only 10% is input from the eye and the rest are from the ocipital lobe
- - - - but action is limited if we dont find effective ways to go beyond the ecology of the media, to institutions governed by other affordances
