    Patterns of Form and Behavior Beyond Emergence by Michael Levin
    Aug 28 2025
    This is a ~1 hour 15 minute talk titled "Patterns of Form and Behavior Beyond Emergence: how Platonic Space in-forms evolved, engineered, and hybrid embodied minds", which is the kickoff talk for our Symposium on Platonic Space (https://thoughtforms.life/symposium-on-the-platonic-space/). Here I go slowly step by step to review the data that motivates this unconventional way to look at biology, and then (at around minute 47) present a speculative model and a research program we are pursuing to t...

    Unconventional Embodiments of Consciousness: A Diverse Intelligence Research Program - Michael Levin
    Aug 6 2025
    This is a ~46 minute talk given at a conference on consciousness, presenting my lab's data on cognition in body organs outside the brain and then some speculations about the mind-body connection more generally (fleshing out my Platonic space model with symmetries between brain:mind relationships and mathematics:physics relationships).
