Toward a General Taxonomy of Artefacts
This article proposes a general taxonomy of artefacts, modeled on the Linnaean hierarchy of biological classification but grounded in criteria specific to material culture and technical kinds. It begins with a philosophical analysis of artefacts as material–intentional products of human design, emphasizing their decisive differences from living organisms and the consequent need for a distinct classificatory framework. Based on this foundation, th…
Foreign Language Learning Under an Ecological–Enactive Approach
This article argues that learning a foreign language cannot be understood solely as the acquisition of internal grammatical or lexical rules, but rather as a form of action situated and corporeally embodied in a social, material, and cultural environment from which new linguistic skills emerge. Hence, we propose to describe foreign language learning under an ecological–enactive approach to cognition, that is, a coordination of two simultaneous mu…
Una crítica al transhumanismo cibernético-computacional de Kurzweil desde el enfoque enactivo de la cognición
El transhumanismo es una idea que aspira a superar las limitaciones biológicas humanas mediante tecnologías biomédicas, cibernéticas y computacionales. En particular, el transhumanismo cibernético-computacional sugiere transferir la mente a un soporte inorgánico, desligando así la vida humana de su forma física biológica. Raymond Kurzweil, uno de los principales defensores de esta idea, describe la mente humana como una emergencia del cerebro, es…
Enactivism and Material Culture
Culture has traditionally been considered as a set of knowledge, beliefs, arts, laws, norms, and morals, acquired by a human being as a member of a group. Some anthropologists interpret this as a set of abstract representations, such as information or knowledge, while others interpret it as behavioral control mechanisms. These views assume that the contents of a particular culture must be processed by the minds of individuals, either in a direct …
Artifact as a Node of Heterogeneous Relationships
This article studies natural food packaging as enabling artifacts of the traditional material culture of Antioquia in Colombia. For this purpose, we consider artifacts as objective nodes that combine design and use intentions, functions, materials, histories, artifactual lineages, and cooperative relationships that stabilize ritualized practices of a human group. We take the example of natural packaging as artifacts that enablers and stabilizers …
