# Embodied cognition > Embodied cognition. Embodied cognition. ## Personal notes I learned about this concept around <2003> thanks to Professor at Sungkyunkwan University. At the time, I was immersed in traditional cognitivism and thought it was nonsense. Much later, I came to understand it better through books by , [Andy Clark](https://wiki.g15e.com/en/pages/Andy%20Clark.txt), , and others. About six years later, in <2009>, I had another opportunity to hear Professor speak at an HCI conference (related record: [Spatial Audio Using Body Movement](https://wiki.g15e.com/en/pages/%EB%AA%B8%EC%9D%98%20%EC%9B%80%EC%A7%81%EC%9E%84%EC%9D%84%20%ED%99%9C%EC%9A%A9%ED%95%9C%20%EC%9E%85%EC%B2%B4%20%EC%9D%8C%ED%96%A5.txt)). As I recall, I had already been persuaded by then.
