Fascinating, Javier. Would a list of metaphors in Wikipedia's 358 languages, coded as "metaphors" in Wikidata, be of help as an initial dataset in these regards? These could then be coded for soccer, for example. (I arrived a bit late, and look forward to watching your talk in full). (Seeking here to facilitate too an universal translator for all 7,099 living languages, and to explore creating brains in AI and at the cellular and atomic levels, even re questions of consciousness and the unconscious, in all 7,099 living languages at World University and School; conceptually think Google Brain/Streetview/Maps/Earth with time slider and which are group build-able by STEM) researchers). Thank you.
Best regards, Scott

Hi Javier, (Dianne and Jim),
http://www.esade.edu/faculty/xavier.busquets
I just re-visited your talk and appreciated your focus on connecting metaphor with simulation - https://www.youtube.com/watch?
So I looked up further what metaphor is and came across philosopher of metaphor Liz Camp's (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki
https://www.youtube.com/
What do you think? Would you help with this project in the Spanish and Catalan languages+? (How metaphor generation in simulation - such as in football matches - could be applied in business senses would be part of this - in, CONCEPTUALLY, this Google Streetview with avatar bots model +)
Thanks for your thought producing talk, Javier.
Best, Scott

Thanks Javier - fascinating topic. We need to get systems learning with smaller data sets, and this direction is key.
10/26/17, 7:40 AMJim Spohrer FYI: one day as the sun was setting my son was tossing a ball in the air as the sun was setting, and he said "Hey Dad! the shadow on my Ball looks just like the Shadow on the Moon!" -- he didn't discover gravity, but I was fascinated with his observation - try it next time sun is setting and moon is setting shortly after.
10/26/17, 7:42 AMJim Spohrer FYI: Ken Forbus (who has spoken in this speaker series) has some great papers related to this topic - one of my favorites - see: http://www.qrg.northweste

A Heideggerian Response to David Chalmers
https://youtu.be/NK1Yo6VbRoo
"In this post, I want to expose the object-metaphors of analytic philosophy of mind. In this video interview of Chalmers, we can see that for him, consciousness is understood as if it were an entity."

And in what way could psychiatrists and psychoanalysts - eventually as avatar bots too - at WUaS in all 200 countries' main languages generate more brain-centric data about unconscious subjective experience?

Beyond developing an atomic pixel, as well as a neural pixel (and cell pixels, etc.), in what ways would developing a "consciousness pixel" help here? And it might have to allow these avatar bots with agency to experience "what it is like to" see red to see blue ...
https://youtu.be/NK1Yo6VbRoo

How humans learn, including generating metaphors for learning/knowledge-generation - and how information technology machine learning works algorithm-wise in a realistic virtual earth with avatar bots - would all be central to this "consciousness pixel" ... and to the "what it is like to be ... " and "conscious experience itself" for you and me, and the "whole inner story that's going on" ... questions in philosophy of mind about consciousness.
Would a hypothetical "consciousness pixel" help us get around the knowledge-generation aspects of metaphor?

My actual virtual Harbin Hot Springs ethnography ~ http://bit.ly/HarbinBook and https://twitter.com/HarbinBook ~ focuses explicitly on the actual-virtual distinction (whereas David Chalmers' talk at Stanford this May 2017 focused philosophically on the real-virtual distinction).

Sounds good, Javier, Jim and Dianne,
Talking soon could work ... after an upcoming CSIG talk?
I just blogged a bit further about this - https://scott-macleod.
Cheers, Scott
