mariano sigman

intro’d to Mariano here.. via ted 2016 -Your words may predict your future mental health:

consciousness.. pilots of own existence.. recent development.. can introspection be examined…

we need to find the emergence of a concept that’s never said: introspection… so we want to build a huge space of words..

5 min – walking in this space feels like walking in the mind

9 min – there was not enough info in semantics to predict the future organization of the mind

perhaps if 7 billion were doing this.. as the day.. that would be enough info…

ie: self talk as data….hosting life bits

11 min – how to convert intuition into an algo

perhaps not into an algo.. but perhaps use an algo to see our minds/intuition/introspection more clearly.. see with heart ness et al (c dot app story).. from the quiet of our room/home.. ness

Mariano Sigman was born in Argentina and grew up in Barcelona, Spain. He obtained a master degree in physics at the University of Buenos Aires and a PhD in neuroscience at the Rockefeller University, with Charles Gilbert, investigating how the cortex organizes to assemble the statistics of the visual world, vast cultural changes (such as reading) and dynamically multiplex several functions through addressing mechanisms and top-down control. He moved to Paris as a Human Frontiers Fellow, investigating with Stanislas Dehaene decision making, cognitive architecture and consciousness. In 2006 he founded the Integrative Neuroscience Laboratory, at the University of Buenos Aires. His lab has an empirical and theoretical approach to decision making, with special focus on the assemblage of unitary decisions into mental programs and understanding the construction of confidence and introspective judgments in the decision process.
