Representation and Interpretation: Ways of Talking about Sights, Sounds, Words, and Neurons
Dr. Jay Atlas
Tuesday, April 27, 2010, 01:00pm - 02:00pm
Pomona College, Department of Philosophy

I will look at some of the similarities in our theoretical descriptions of information processing among these sensory modalities and draw some conclusions about the division of labor among semantic and pragmatic principles.
