Andy Clark and Jerry Fodor authored the paper that introduced, for 10 points, what view that the mental includes an agent's environment as well?
This theory gives its name to a model of the origin of language that Robert Logan proposed in a 2007 book. The paper that introduced this theory asks "What of the amnesiac villagers of 100 Years of Solitude?" and begins by having the reader imagine a "cyberpunk future" in which a person has a neural implant that allows him to rotate shapes on a computer screen. That paper that introduced this theory then proposes a theory of "epistemic credit" in support of it. A thought experiment in which Inga is able to get to the museum just fine, but Otto has Alzheimer's and must write down directions to it on a piece of paper, supports this theory, which argues that the "skin" and "skull" are not demarcations of where "the rest of the world" begins and the "mental" ends.
