as to whether the narrative seems convincing — Enrique
Synesthesias materialized in the human brain which integrated modules responsible for syntax with those involved in dimensional perception. — Enrique
Synesthesias materialized in the human brain which integrated modules responsible for syntax with those involved in dimensional perception. Abstraction was less and less differentiated into two types of cognitive imaginativeness, symbolic sequentiality and object dimensionality, but converted towards a type of introspection that hybridized properties of both. — Enrique
What we identify as full-blown symbolic art was probably seeded by narrational expression, — Enrique
Dimensionality was no longer constrained to its role in assembling objects, and syntax to its role in formulating expressions, but began to fuse as open-ended proportionality, with reflection and vocalization having an underlying mentality which performs deductions upon entities that are instantiated as concept and yet transcend the delimitations inherent in all palpable phenomena, an infinitely permutable, disembodied, pure form. — Enrique
The hominin mouth, throat and mind became reconfigured for the expressive artistry of primordial speech. As this self-symbolizing type of thought and behavior grew prevalent in the Homo genus, it evolved beyond projection of one’s own mental states and aesthetic sensibilities for the sake of inducing indistinct pleasure, and into a medium of increasingly precise representation conveying the qualities of obscurer experiences, whether introspective impressions or complex external phenomena. — Enrique
turgid prose... — Banno
How do you parameterize how chronological short term memory is? — Aryamoy Mitra
An excerpt from a chapter I'm writing on the origins of human consciousness. — Enrique

These are very cogently put forth thoughts on the metamorphosis of human imagination and expression, but what are their philosophical underpinnings? — Aryamoy Mitra
Hominins were obviously much more able than housecats in both of these areas, dimensional awareness and linguistic expressiveness, but excelled most with dimensionality. — Enrique
Their spatial reasoning could craft effective tools of many kinds, they could figure out how to catch most available prey and adapt clothing to varying climates, essentially utilizing wilderness environments technologically such that a correlated decline in biodiversity throughout the hominin range is revealed by paleontology. — Enrique
Their phrases and maybe sentences, while probably not a humanlike train of thought that can spout fluent and complex verbal reasoning for hours, must have been more detailed in its expressiveness than housecats and somewhat syntactical, for they had the facial physique for humanlike speech. — Enrique
It is subsequent to this that the first evidence of ecology appeared, particularly cultivation of the Amazon rainforest, and eventually civilization. — Enrique
Could you please demonstrate this by jumping around and walking in dangerous places as cats do. I think that while cats do not have the ability to tell you about dimensionality, probably because of your lack of understanding their communication methods, they are certainly better adapted to spacial perception than humans.
Spatial reasoning? How does that help with the development of tools? — Sir2u
Most of speech is not in the facial physique but in the throat, a person can still speak even without the lips and teeth. Monkeys have similar facial physique, but I have not heard many of them speaking. — Sir2u
How are you using the word ecology here? I am not sure exactly how the first evidence of it could appear. — Sir2u
Are you implying that historically mutated syntactical and semantic architectures were what engendered metaphysical thought? If that's the case, then you're developing an anthropological argument that re-traces the nascent birthplace of philosophy in the human mind. — Aryamoy Mitra
