Your Definition
The view that thinking and [decision-making] emerge from the messy, adaptive interactions of many simple parts without a central controller. It's cognition as a swarm [phenomenon]. This applies to ant colonies making [collective] "decisions" about nest sites, the immune system "learning" to recognize pathogens, or the distributed problem-solving of a brainstorming team. The cognitive property is a product of the system's dynamics, not located in any single component.
