They contrast extelligence with intelligence, or the knowledge and cognitive processes within the brain. Furthermore, they regard the ‘complicity’ of extelligence and intelligence as fundamental to the development of consciousness in evolutionary terms for both the species and the individual. ‘Complicity’ is a combination of complexity and simplicity, and Cohen and Stewart use it to express the interdependent relationship between knowledge-inside-one's-head and knowledge-outside-one's-head that can be readily accessed. In other words, there has to be, at some level, an appreciation of what is out there and what it means. Much of this ‘appreciation’ falls into the category of tacit knowledge(Polanyi 1967) and social and cultural learning.(Lave and Wenger 1991) As an example, a dictionary may contain definitions of many words. But only those definitions that can be understood by the reader. References Category:Intelligence Category:1990s neologisms Category:Concepts in social philosoph
