Glen,
Thanks for the reorientation! If you want to discuss complexity, I think an
interesting question regarding perception-action systems is how much of the
complexity has to be inside the organism, and how much of it can
Glen,
Thanks for the reorientation! If you want to discuss complexity, I think an
interesting question regarding perception-action systems is how much of the
complexity has to be inside the organism, and how much of it can be
encapsulated in the larger organism-environment system. The more the

Late to the party, but still lots to chew on!
It is unfortunate that everyone wants to throw the
simulation/representation/modeling wrench into the middle of what might
otherwise be a very sensible story about about dynamic systems. (And if you

The way you worded this confuses me. Did you mean "truth is a correspondence

typically use the word "truth" to mean the outside, alone, not a map between
