Enactive Cognitive Science

Enactive Cognitive Science is a framework that views cognition as an active process where living beings create their understanding of the world through their interactions and engagement with it. Instead of seeing the mind as separate from the body or environment, enaction emphasizes that perception and action are interconnected, shaping one another continuously. It suggests that cognition arises from embodied experiences—our sensorimotor skills, movements, and interactions—allowing us to understand and navigate the world through practical engagement rather than static representations or internal algorithms.
