Space as an invention of biological organisms
[article]
2013
arXiv
pre-print
Here we show that this does not have to be the case: the notion of space could emerge when biological organisms seek an economic representation of their sensorimotor flow. ...
Rigid displacements may underly perception of space as an unchanging medium within which objects are described by their relative positions. ...
This ability of the agent underlies the notion of space as an unchanging medium through which the agent makes displacements. ...

Naturalizing Physics. Or, embedding physics in the historicity and materiality of the living
2020
Zenodo
By naturalization we mean an analysis of physics as part of the sciences of nature, not as the science governing them all. ...
When moving from the inert to the living state of matter, new challenges are posed, beginning with biological "heterogenesis", as "genesis of and from diversity" in a changing space of pertinent observables ...
The collaborations and exchanges with Maël Montévil, Alessandro Sarti and the "Organisms" team constructed the conceptual phase space and the conditions of possibility for this work. ...

No entailing laws, but enablement in the evolution of the biosphere
[article]
2012
arXiv
pre-print
Our considerations depend upon discussing the variability of the very "contexts of life": the interactions between organisms, biological niches and ecosystems. ...
The role of (theoretical) symmetries as invariant preserving transformations will allow us to understand the nature of physical phase spaces and to stress the differences required for a sound biological ...
The invention of the more general notion of "phase space" dates of the late XIX century, when momentum was added to space as an integral component of the analysis of a trajectory (or energy to time, in ...

Earth Perspectives -- Transdisciplinarity Enabled
Cybernetic adaptation is now recognised as a cornerstone of biological and technological evolution and as well as of artificial intelligence (AI) and cognition. ...
It has been ten years since the 2006 work of Abel and Trevors wherein the cybernetic path of life's origin was proposed as an alternative to the widely held views of such origin being self-ordering and ...
