May our work benefit all (kinds of) beings.

Our new preprint argues that vulnerability and mortality are features, not bugs, for agents that adapt and provide care.

Now on Arxiv > CS.AI:
arxiv.org/abs/2510.07117

With Christov-Moore, Juliani, Kiefer, Reggente, Rousse, Safron, Polani, and Damasio.

ECSU's @nicohinrichs.bsky.social just posted an update on his paper on 'Geometric Hyperscanning of Affect under Active Inference' on Arxiv!

Make sure to check out his collabo. with @mahault.bsky.social @dimitrisbolis.bsky.social Yuyue Jiang, Leonardo Christov-Moore, and @leoschilbach.bsky.social

By embedding interbrain networks in a geometric manifold, they pinpoint co-regulation at a granularity which IBS metrics smooth away, albeit it being critical to scale interaction from infant-caregiver to therapeutic alliance in interpersonal-psychiatry.

Embodied Cognitive Science Unit We are developing theoretical and experimental projects in cognitive science, guided by the hypothesis that agent-environment interaction is an essential part of mental activity.

Hello, world! At the Embodied Cognitive Science Unitβ€―@oistedu.bsky.social in gorgeous Okinawa, we explore life and mind in terms of agent-environment interactions and do so via haptics, hyperscanning, and artificial life.
