Looking for some good readings for a graduate student who is interested in the philosophy and cognitive science of music #perception. Any recommendations—philosophical or otherwise? #PhilPerception #PhilQ
3) there is *so much* we can productively discuss re perceptual phenomena we all care about before we just have to part ways due to incompatible commitments - so it can happen that you talk about perception for 2 days and still can't tell who is the naive realist in the room :-)

2) yes, there still are significant points of disagreement between naive realist and representationalist accounts of perceptual experience (not all of them reducible to which bit counts as 'fundamental' where we all agree on which bits there are); and

Personal take after on the Dortmund 'Naive Realism 2.0' conference this week (which was great!):
1) there may be only limited agreement in the field re what being a naive realist means (the label itself - 'naive' - may be unhelpful here); and

I like this U. T. Place quote not only because it defends mind-brain identity theory against an obvious objection—what Place called the “phenomenological fallacy”—but because it articulates an early form of #disjunctivism. #PhilMind #PhilPerception
You need to seriously consider sense modalities other than vision. Theorising about vision and assuming that it will generalise is not a good strategy. (Also, don’t conflate states, events and processes, but that’s another kettle of fish!) #PhilPerception
Came across this in our archives today… Not sure what to make of it. Blue Sky peeps, did Dr Robinson get this get this right? medicalnewsbulletin.com/beauty-requi... #CogPsyc #MoralPhil #Neuroskyence #philperception #PsychSciSky 🧪
Rich & compelling new paper by Will Davies on illumination as more than mere light. But an emergent, ecologically sig., structured kind - comprising fields & surfaces, shadows & sunbeams; sunlight & twilight. #philperception #philmind #philpsy onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/pdf/10.1...

Excited to take part in the New England Metaphysics Workshop on Acquaintance this weekend, where I’ll be commenting on Ali Hasan’s paper “Awareness of Abstracta.” Many thanks to the organizers for the invitation.

Today’s lecture was on disjunctivist accounts of #hallucination. The students looked somewhat perplexed, but I’m betting that they understood more than they realised. They just don’t see yet how it constitutes an explanation of the (seeming) character of hallucination. #PhilPerception #disjunctivism
Meanwhile in #Ireland… ☘️ #philosophy #PhilPerception
Interesting thread… #PhilPerception #TheSenses

#philosophy of #perception edition: what about the other senses? #PhilPerception
It’s true that surprisingly few philosophers have worked on smell, taste and flavour (though thankfully that’s changing). I think that says something both about #philosophy and how dominated by vision we are as a species and a culture… #PhilSmell #PhilTaste #PhilPerception
" I will argue that we are not restricted to seeing the properties which objects and scenes actually have; we can in addition veridically perceive ways things could be, but are not currently—what I shall call modal properties."

Discovered a #PhilPerception group. Most posts (& research) focus on #sensory & #perception deficits.
What about hypersensitivities? Auditory, olfactory, etc.
Especially for ppl on the #autism spectrum.
The (surprisingly new) science of aphantasia – the inability to ‘see’ mental imagery
