Episode Synopsis "5. Prehensions as Active Inference"

In this episode of the ponderings podcast I compare Alfred North Whitehead's theory of positive prehensions and Karl Friston's free energy principle and active inference! I also try present the podcast in a more improvised fashion to make it easier to follow along. The intro and outro for the podcast is created by my dear friend Eli.  Check out his soundcloud: https://soundcloud.com/vshbvg The designs and logo for the podcast are created by my sister Monica.
