Culture & the mind is a five-year interdisciplinary research
project funded by the Arts and Humanities Research Council (AHRC). The
project seeks to "investigate the philosophical consequences of the
impact of culture on the mind and the cognitive and evolutionary
foundations of culture." The project has three main areas of
investigation, each of which have short summaries on the website: 'Folk
Psychology & Folk Epistemics'; 'Norms & Moral Psychology'; and
'Artefacts & Material Culture'. The website has profiles of the
Project Director and members of the Organising Committee, and
hyperlinks to their external websites. The project will run until 2009,
and there are plans to place publications online on the website in
future.

'Contact: consciousness in interaction' is the online hub of a cross-disciplinary international research project, part-funded by the Arts and Humanities Research Council (AHRC), and is part of the 'Consciousness in a Natural and Cultural Context' programme. Contact seeks to question "the assumption that conscious experience must be explained by the brain by itself, as opposed to the embodied brain in interaction with environments, both natural and social." There is a full outline of the project, and the teams. There are profiles of the six different research teams, and hyperlinks to their respective websites. About 20 full-text draft papers are available for download. There is a diary of the project's conference schedule, and details of opportunities to join the project.
