New Scientist Live: Consciousness and the Extended Mind



Edinburgh Science

It’s one of the biggest questions of our existence. What is consciousness? Millennia after Aristotle and Hippocrates wrestled with the concept of the mind and self-awareness, neuroscientists, roboticists and psychologists are starting to pin down answers.

Artificial intelligence pioneer Margaret Boden of the University of Sussex and neuroscientists Patrick Haggard and Micah Allen from University College London joined philosopher Andy Clark from the University of Edinburgh to discuss whether revealing the inner workings of the brain can help us solve the problem of consciousness.
