Human Cognitive Pacemakers: Beyond Functionlistic, Formalistic Analysis of Life Sarah Bro Trasmundi Oslo University; Centre for Human Interactivity, Unversity of Southern Denmark Feb. 10, 2022, noon UTC // Feb. 10, 2022, noon in UTC Human life is a process that is punctuated by events (Stewart, 2019). In this lecture I focus on (i) the temporal dynamics that compose an event and (ii) how such events are grounded in imaginative, creative processes from an affective-embodied cognitive perspective. That is, how do people come up with new solutions, and why do such solutions sometimes deviate from what is expected? Often deviations emerge for no obvious reason and reveal themselves in punctuations such as breaks and ruptures.
