Don’t waste your time or words Jan. I spoke up because I know how much work you and others put into that grant and competition, and as you rightly point out Andrew’s implicit gatekeeping was inappropriate and obvious.

One of the fun parts of this gatekeeping is the fact that we are actually trying to empirically and theoretically test some of the assumptions that could delineate between some of the thoughts that stand between ecological and classical representational "neuro"science without taking any sides.
But this is what I’m curious about! I want to know what you’re up to so I can engage! And my question about how this relates to Gibson is an obvious one - the press release literally talks about eco psych and affordances. The defensiveness has been very weird from my perspective
Awesome. And I let you know that sometimes engaging means being welcoming rather than why those people. We are preparing both a theory and general overview manuscript at the moment and I hope we will get them out in a timely matter.
The term representation is something you will see us struggle with (as are many others) but we have chosen a purely mathematical notion as a hypothesis space. This is of course not how you describe the space yet it allows for productive testing of empirical findings.
