Intentions and Agency: A Deep Dive into Ecological Psychology
Join Mirko Prokop and Andrea Hiott as they examine 'Intentions in Ecological Psychology, an Anscombian Perspective' by Miguel Segundo-Ortin and Annemarie Kalis. This engaging discussion explores the concept of intention from a naturalistic standpoint, intersecting with ecological psychology. Topics include the role of intention in agency, the influence of Elizabeth Anscombe, teleology, goal-directed behavior, and non-representational nature of intentions. Delving into the idea of affordances, they shed light on how intentions shape perception and behavior across species, emphasizing the importance of interdisciplinary approaches to understanding human and animal cognition.

Thoreau quote discussed: "In our most trivial walks, we are constantly, though unconsciously, steering like pilots by certain well–known beacons and headlands, and if we go beyond our usual course we still carry in our minds the bearing of some neighboring cape; and not till we are completely lost, or turned round—for a man needs only to be turned round once with his eyes shut in this world to be lost—do we appreciate the vastness and strangeness of nature. Every man has to learn the points of compass again as often as he awakes, whether from sleep or any abstraction. Not till we are lost, in other words not till we have lost the world, do we begin to find ourselves, and realize where we are and the infinite extent of our relations."
