ABSTRACT
This chapter focuses on some mental processes that are partly made up of processes whereby an individual manipulates, transforms, and/or exploits structures in its environment. These structures carry information that is relevant to the cognitive task in which the individual is engaged. Since the processes are ones that transform this information from information that is merely present to information that is available to the individual. Ludwig Wittgenstein Wittgenstein once said that philosophy is useful only against philosophers and the philosopher in us. We are all philosophers, and what we regard as our common sense in reality embodies various philosophical pictures, assumptions, and often confusions. Intentionality, the chapter expresses that it is an essentially revealing activity. As such, the argument divides into two strands: a picture of intentionality as revealing activity, and an analysis of cognition-the 'mark of the cognitive' (MOTC). Therefore various 4e understandings of the mental-mental processes as embodied, embedded, enacted, and extended-fall out of the picture of intentionality.
