Most researchers assume that the human mind is some kind of computational device, containing representations.
The original position is not supposed to be realistic, but is a "device of representation" (PL 27), or a "thought experiment," (JF, 83), that is designed to organize our considered convictions of justice and clarify their implications.
Most CASA systems make the device time frequency representation and the application of a correlogram to extract features and useful information for the following steps as: the autocorrelation of a filter response, the autocorrelation of a filter response envelope, the cross-channel correlation, the dominant fundamental frequency of each frame….
The life is very sophisticated in its invention of new devices and representations: a recently discovered human gut microbiome with its collective gene set is a good example.
While the device-independent representation of sounds in AUX is beneficial, in that sounds can be specified as conceptual entities, this also delineates a limit to the application of AUX.
Furthermore, Berg explains that the device offers the "representations you get in software systems on phones and screens" but they are now "elegantly brought into physical spaces".
So the old Guitar Hero devices have been representations of the idea of a guitar.

Apart from the typical interview questions, I was also tested on my understanding of simple mechanical devices (both pictorial representations and written descriptions) and asked my opinions on a topical issue, in my case, genetically modified foods.
