Pat was feeling cybernetic so Ben updates him on the cutting edge of philosophy pioneered by British thinker/arch-nerd Andy Clarke. This enfant terrible of contemporary philosophy of mind has advanced some of the most popular ideas ever written about in WIRED magazine. He's developed a new approach to cognitive science by advocating an embodied theory of mind and has suggested that thought and knowledge manifests itself beyond the constraints of our physical bodies. Pat suggested this one based entirely on the pictures that popped up of Andy on Google and he was totally right: This guy looks ridiculous.
