The Disencapsulated Mind: A Premotor Theory of Human Imagination

2024-07-25

Abstract excerpt

<p>It is hypothesized that perceptual, motoric, and cognitive operations that were functionally distinct and modularly encapsulated in our pre-modern ancestors came to interact through a new type of cross-modular binding in our species. This demodularization allowed previously domain-dedicated, encapsulated motoric and sensory operators to operate on operands for which they had not evolved. Moreover, while such "p...
