Research Interests
Following Kant's injunction to inquire closely into "what
is human," one major line of active research involves an
examination of the co-evolution of brain/mind and the
ability to create representations in the "hominization"
process. To this end, one of the world's least intelligent
multi-actor systems as well as an incredibly dumb
production system are being constructed to emulate early
hominid mind and society.
