Yet every day we outsource memory to our phones, use GPS to navigate, rely on calendars to plan, and turn to search engines and other people to help us think through complex decisions. Are these just tools we use—or have they become part of how we think?In this engaging and accessible talk, Harvard psychiatrist Dr. Anthony Weiss explores research suggesting that human cognition extends beyond the skull into our bodies, relationships, technologies, and environments. From the notebooks we carry to the AI systems we increasingly consult, our minds may be far more distributed than we realize.As artificial intelligence becomes woven into everyday life, understanding where the mind ends—and technology begins—may be one of the most urgent scientific and philosophical questions of our time. Don’t miss this opportunity to rethink what a “mind” really is with Dr. Weiss, a leading expert on neuropsychiatry, behavioral neurology, and bioethics.Get a drink, connect, and learn at Lectures on Tap! 🙌Agenda6:30 PM – Doors open: find a seat (open seating!), order food & drinks, and expect a bar line—arriving early is key.6:55 PM – Host introduction7:00 PM – Lecture begins7:45 PM – Audience Q&A8:00 PM – Have 1:1 time with the speaker, mingle with fellow guests, and order another round8:30 PM – Wrap up. - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/somerville/lectures-on-tap-the-extended-mind-how-technology-shapes-thought/100001997859886702 - **Event Categories**: fitness - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 35, max: 35, currency: USD ## Event venue details - **city**: Somerville - **state**: MA - **country**: United States - **location**: Somerville - **lat**: 42.3808757 - **long**: -71.1002881 - **full address**: Somerville, United States ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: Lectures on Tap - "The Extended Mind: How Technology Shapes Thought" - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events10/banners/01c47bc8ff471fbc35414b908f5155614f07f6369d90d5a506bae2da9f600885-rimg-w1200-h600-dce8e8d8-gmir.jpg?v=1788214876 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is Lectures on Tap - "The Extended Mind: How Technology Shapes Thought" being held? - **A:** Lectures on Tap - "The Extended Mind: How Technology Shapes Thought" takes place on Tue, 08 Sep, 2026 at 06:30 pm to Tue, 08 Sep, 2026 at 08:30 pm at Somerville, United States. - **Q**: Who is organizing Lectures on Tap - "The Extended Mind: How Technology Shapes Thought"? - **A:** Lectures on Tap - "The Extended Mind: How Technology Shapes Thought" is organized by Felecia For The Win. ## Structured Data (JSON-LD) ```json [ { "@context": "https://schema.org", "@type": "Event", "name": "Lectures on Tap - "The Extended Mind: How Technology Shapes Thought"", "image": "https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events10/banners/01c47bc8ff471fbc35414b908f5155614f07f6369d90d5a506bae2da9f600885-rimg-w1200-h600-dce8e8d8-gmir.jpg?v=1788214876", "startDate": "2026-09-08T18:30:00-04:00", "endDate": "2026-09-08T20:30:00-04:00", "url": "https://allevents.in/somerville/lectures-on-tap-the-extended-mind-how-technology-shapes-thought/100001997859886702", "eventStatus": "https://schema.org/EventScheduled", "location": { "@type": "Place", "name": "Somerville", "address": { "@type": "PostalAddress", "streetAddress": "Somerville", "postalCode": "02143", "addressLocality": "Somerville", "addressRegion": "MA", "addressCountry": "US" }, "geo": { "@type": "GeoCoordinates", "latitude": "42.3808757", "longitude": "-71.1002881" } }, "eventAttendanceMode": "https://schema.org/OfflineEventAttendanceMode", "description": "Professors, experts, and storytellers giving thought-provoking lectures in Boston bars.", "offers": [ { "@type": "AggregateOffer", "availability": "https://schema.org/InStock", "priceCurrency": "USD", "availabilityStarts": "2026-08-31", "availabilityEnds": "2026-09-08T20:30:00-04:00", "validFrom": "2026-08-31", "lowPrice": "35.00", "highPrice": "35.00", "price": "35.00", "url": "https://allevents.in/somerville/lectures-on-tap-the-extended-mind-how-technology-shapes-thought/100001997859886702" }, { "@type": "Offer", "availability": "https://schema.org/InStock", "priceCurrency": "USD", "availabilityStarts": "2026-08-31", "availabilityEnds": "", "validFrom": "2026-08-31", "url": "https://allevents.in/somerville/lectures-on-tap-the-extended-mind-how-technology-shapes-thought/100001997859886702", "price": "35.00", "name": "Admission Ticket" } ], "organizer": [ { "@type": "Organization", "name": "Felecia For The Win", "url": "https://allevents.in/org/felecia-for-the-win/24277484", "description": "Felecia is a software engineer, content creator, and host with over 700k followers across her social media platforms.
