ON THOUGHT
Cruising my archives reveals I’ve done some thinking…about thinking. Some of you, like Dan of tdaxp , are very familiar with these but newer readers might not have caught these posts on the nature of cognition when they first appeared.
Understanding Cognition Part I.
Understanding Cognition Part II.
Understanding Cognition PartIII.
Creativity as the Key to escape Self-Referential Paradigms
Metacognition
Complexity, leadership, ideology and perception
Enjoy ( Or not, either way, here they are) !

Thanks a lot for this Mark. I’m quite interested in “thinking” strategies and theories.

Props for the link.
On the subject of cognition, I’m still giving out prizes (er, the maddest of props) for the first person to correctly identify this thinker by his photo.

Dan, dudes,
Looks to me like the late Col John Boyd from a picture taken when he was a Second Lieutenant, and after receiving his wings in 1952.
Take care,
Sonny
