[Philosophy of Social Cognition] Fourteenth Meeting

[Martyna Meyer]

Dear all,

I hope you’re enjoying a pleasant Sunday!

For the next week, we have a special treat. We are excited to host a lecture (followed by a Q&A session) given by prof. Michael Rescorla on Mental Representations in Cognitive Science. 

If you’d like to prepare for the lecture, I encourage you to read the Stanford Encyclopedia entry on The language of thought hypothesis <https://plato.stanford.edu/entries/language-thought/>, written by prof. Rescorla. (You can find more of prof. Rescorla’s work on his PhilPeople page <https://philpeople.org/profiles/michael-rescorla>)

I’m really looking forward to the meeting and I would like to sincerely invite you to join us :)

As usual, you can do it online (Zoom link <https://univienna.zoom.us/j/65514918078?pwd=cVZTd2Ivb09uSUFVNTZORWFIOTA4UT09>) or in person. We meet in the room 3B (NIG, third floor), at 6:30 CET. 
The meeting takes place on Tuesday, June 20, 2023.

And one more quick announcement:

Our friends at Vienna Forum for Analytic Philosophy are soon hosting a conference on the topic of Attention and Salience (which we have stumbled upon in our discussions on social cognition!). I encourage you to check out their website <https://wfap.philo.at/conferences/12th-wfap-graduate-conference/> and consider joining the event.

The programme is here <https://wfap.philo.at/conferences/12th-wfap-graduate-conference/programme/>. From the perspective of our reading group, the most relevant talks take place on July 8th. 
It’s also a chance to hear a talk by Susanna Siegel <https://www.susannasiegel.net/>, who is working on philosophy of perception. Overall, it’s a great opportunity to get acquainted with how analytic philosophy approaches the problems of perception and cognition.

I’m looking forward to seeing you on Tuesday! :)

Best,
Martyna
