The Phenomenal Content of Experience
We discuss in some length evidence from the cognitive science suggesting that the representations of objects based on spatiotemporal information and featural information retrieved bottom-up from a visual scene precede representations of objects that include conceptual information. We argue that a distinction can be drawn between representations with conceptual and nonconceptual content. The dis...
متن کاملFull-body illusions and minimal phenomenal selfhood.
We highlight the latest research on body perception and self-consciousness, but argue that despite these achievements, central aspects have remained unexplored, namely, global aspects of bodily self-consciousness. Researchers investigated central representations of body parts and actions involving these, but neglected the global and unitary character of self-consciousness, the 'I' of experience...
متن کاملFundamental constraints on theories of phenomenal experience
A central, non-negotiable constraint on any account of phenomenal awareness or experience is that it must be intrinsic to the experiencer, rather than depending on an outside interpretation of its structure or function. When applied to computational accounts of phenomenal awareness that are based on dynamical systems theory, this constraint raises a serious conceptual challenge, namely, the nee...
متن کاملEmbodied simulation: From neurons to phenomenal experience
The same neural structures involved in the unconscious modeling of our acting body in space also contribute to our awareness of the lived body and of the objects that the world contains. Neuroscientific research also shows that there are neural mechanisms mediating between the multi-level personal experience we entertain of our lived body, and the implicit certainties we simultaneously hold abo...
متن کاملA connectionist theory of phenomenal experience.
When cognitive scientists apply computational theory to the problem of phenomenal consciousness, as many have been doing recently, there are two fundamentally distinct approaches available. Consciousness is to be explained either in terms of the nature of the representational vehicles the brain deploys or in terms of the computational processes defined over these vehicles. We call versions of t...
