Call for Abstracts
*ENACTING CHANCE – IGNORANCE INSIGHT AND INTUITION**
**Virtual Workshop at Lorentz Center (Leiden, the Netherlands)**
**23 August - 27 August 2021*
*_Submission deadline: April 30, 2021_*
Notification of acceptance: May 21, 2021
This Lorentz week-long workshop will be devoted to discussing
philosophical, psychological, and cognitive aspects of discovering,
exploiting, and generating chance. Key topics for discussion will
be*_ignorance-based reasoning, creativity, insight problem-solving,
serendipity, intuition, and the enactive perspective on cognition_*. In
addition to the intensive week of the workshop, *_events will commence
during the summer _*and interactive materials will be made available for
*_asynchronous participation_*. While we are assuming that the event
will likely be fully online, we are taking opportunities for *_blended
participation_* and /enacting chance/ wherever possible in the program.
The workshop will be held on *_Microsoft Teams_* and participants will
be involved in *_at least 2 hours per day of academic and social
activities_*. Participants will be invited to *_prepare a poster or
other visual presentation_* of ideas (mind maps and interactive
presentations are welcome) that, together *_with a brief video or an
audio_* (under 5 minutes) will be uploaded on this website and will be
used as a topic of discussion in the poster sessions Q&A.
Key questions, although not restricted to these, will be:
* Can we train for chance encounters/ events/ discoveries?
* Is chance an emergent property of particular and intersubjective
circumstances?
* How does an agent shift from a situation of ignorance to one of
discovery or insight?
* When and from what does a deserving hypothesis emerge?
* What epistemic and cognitive conditions can foster intuition?
* Can chance encounters/ events/ discoveries foster cases of epistemic
illusions?
* What is the role of chance encounters/ events/ discoveries in
insightful restructuring?
_*Abstracts of no more than 500 words*_ should be submitted to:
