Summary/Abstract: The paper focuses on the role of distributed mechanisms in cognitive processes. It discusses the results of research in economics, geography and organization theory on the spatial concentration of actors in innovative industries. Although geographic economics and other disciplines have demonstrated a relationship between geographic concentration and inventiveness and innovation, they have not offered explanation in terms of mecha- nisms. Employing the concept of distributed mechanisms, this article proposes a reinter- pretation of concepts such as buzz and the knowledge spillover effect that geography and economics refer to.
