<p>Dear FISers,</p>
To put an end to the present session Focusing on Narratives, some
approximate transcription from Boyer (2018: "Minds Make Societies"
p. 245): <br>
<i>"Hum</i><i>ans stand apart from other species in the amount of
information they acquire by pay</i><i>ing attention to what others
do, and crucially to what they say... <br>
Information is our </i><i>environment</i><i>, our niche, and we
constantly transform that niche to acquire even more information
from our surroundings..."</i> <br>
Isn't it deeply related to principles of social information science,
and also to the narratives theme of this session?<br>
<br>
Like in previous years, after the Xmas pause, we will receive the
2019 with our traditional "New Year Lecture".<br>
As usual it will be announced during the last week or during first
days of the new year. <br>
It will revolve around a topic we have scarcely discussed: the
neuroscience of consciousness. <br>
After that Lecture, Xueshan and Plamen will tentatively organize
respective discussion sessions.<br>
<br>
And to everybody: enjoy the Xmas time! Feliz Navidad from Zaragoza.
