00:10: Introductions01:00: Initial thoughts on Art as Cognition, but what is Art? How do we define it? How do people make Art to show their perceptions to the world? Perceiving vs Thinking02:50: What makes perceiving in Art different from just perceiving? Is Art special? It's intentional to start. Art takes a creative mind04:00: The amount of sensory input from Art makes it different from conversation. There's an activation of the senses that makes the difference04:45: Dadaism and the Fountain. Where's the intention that bridges the gap with Art and cognition? Right moment, right context. Removing the "Fountain" from the restroom makes it different. 07:30: Does Art have to be impractical? Or perhaps not accomplish a specific goal? Art is not about optimization and use, process over end goal. 09:00: If Art is impractical, why do we do it? Why do we seek it out? It's a way of expression and feeling different about the sensations in the world. 10:10: Non-sensational Art. How strongly are specific sensations associated with specific Art pieces?13:30: Some things are done by the Artist and some by the Perceiver. A collaborative form. Almost a conversation between the artwork and the perceiver. 16:05: Reality is constructed, you need context. In a vacuum, things don't work.Support the show
