We survey how, by explicit mathematical constructions, such algebraic models can be algorithmically derived for all finite state systems and give examples illustrating this, including coordinates for the rigid symmetries of a regular polygon, and recovery of the decimal expansion and coordinates arising from conserved quantities in physics. By accepting D. Haraway's (1991) 'ironic myth' of the ourselves as cyborgs, one opens the door to empowerment of humans responsible and in control of their hybrid natures as beings augmented by both cognitive and physical tools. Indeed we argue that biological systems share with the subjects of all sciences of the 'artificial' (H. Simon (1969)), an essential quality of contingent, conscious or unconscious design. Coordinate systems derived by algebra or computation for affordance of the understanding and manipulation of physical and conceptual worlds are thus a 'natural' step in use of 'tools' by biological systems as they/we learn to modify selves and identities appropriately and dynamically. The mathematics of constructing formal models for understanding is explained, application to familiar examples and to the Noether-Rhodes theory of conservation laws, and extensions to handling formal relations and analogies between models are discussed.","PeriodicalId":212776,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings Second International Conference on Cognitive Technology Humanizing the Information Age","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1997-08-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121394986","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The paper reports on a project which addresses the problems faced by blind people in negotiating novel spaces. Various technologically sophisticated schemes have been proposed to help the blind in such circumstances. These range from the use of GPS satellites combined with hand-held microcomputers so that the blind user can get an accurate fix on his or her location, to the use of fixed local radio beacons in an intelligent environment which can guide a blind person in a locally sensitive fashion. While there has been some limited success with these systems, they have yet to solve many difficult operational problems. Working from a perspective that is in accordance with CT principles, the author developed a radically different system through which the existing competence of blind people in interpreting acoustic spatial cues can be enhanced and exploited by enabling them to communicate with one another about their auditory experience of the environment. The solution proposed relies on the technique of binaural recording with the addition of certain important additional elements. It enables one blind person who knows a place to effectively \"draw an acoustic map\" of it in line with their auditory experience. This map is of use to another blind person before he or she encounters that place for the first time. The idea of a map is exploited by reference to its functional rather than physical characteristics, a move which nevertheless acknowledges that the importance of a map lies in its physical characteristics in relation to shared sensory experiences.","PeriodicalId":212776,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings Second International Conference on Cognitive Technology Humanizing the Information Age","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1997-08-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115400901","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The aim of the article is to provide this hypothesis with experimental content through the study of a series of very specific technical devices usually referred to as \"sensory substitution systems\". After analysing some of the results achieved so far, we describe several experiments on the construction of a three dimensional perceptual space through technical means. We then demonstrate the role of human action, and therefore, of the \"corps propre\" (the body from the point of view of the subject), in the process of the construction of perception. These experiments will also enable us to discuss the conditions for conducting fundamental research in the field of technology, combining scientific method and phenomenological analysis. In conclusion we suggest various possible lines of future research on this subject.","PeriodicalId":212776,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings Second International Conference on Cognitive Technology Humanizing the Information Age","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1997-08-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128083044","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
