306 – Interview with Matt Dicks. Portsmouth, Perception-Action Coupling, Exploring to Learn, Affordances

A discussion with Matt Dicks from the University of Portsmouth. How does "anticipation" behavior change as we vary the degree of perception-action coupling?

Should exploring be treated as something different than performing?   More info about my guest: https://www.port.ac.uk/about-us/structure-and-governance/our-people/our-staff/matt-dicks https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Matt_Dicks   More information: http://perceptionaction.com/ My Research Gate Page (pdfs of my articles) My ASU Web page Podcast Facebook page (videos, pics, etc)   Subscribe in iOS/Apple Subscribe in Anroid/Google   Support the podcast and receive bonus content
