Lecture 1: The problem
1. Philosophy of Consciousness
2. Qualia
3. Illusions
● Easy problems: the mechanisms (e.g., attention, memory) which can be addressed
by mainstream cognitive science
● Hard problem: how physical processes in brain give rise to subjective experience
“The Explanatory Gap” is a label for the idea that we cannot explain consciousness in
terms of brain activity. There are many different formulations of the explanatory gap, but all
discussion about it assumes that there is only one gap, which consists of the absence of a
deductive explanation.
2. Qualia
Qualia ‘Thought-experiments’:
● are typically used in philosophy to make arguments, to clarify concepts and to
debunk reasoning fallacies
● a quality or property as perceived or experienced by a person.
● Subjective experience
● a quality or property as perceived or experienced by a person.
● Subjective experience
● Relates to objective processes differently according to different approaches
● Little disagreement about existence but strong disagreement about properties, nature
● So, how “raw”, “immediate”, personal is conscious experience?
, Mary the color scientist
What it’s like to be a bat
zombi zimbo
• Phenomenal Consciousness (P): experience of something it is like to be in that state
• Access Consciousness (A): reportability of that experience
3. Illusions
• Illusions teach us something about the way we perceive the world
• Dissociation between perceptual input and subjective experience
• Perception vs. Cognition (cognitive penetrability)
Brain compensates for change in perception caused by saccadic eye movements
inattentional blindness
• We attend and integrate information very selectively
• Rich phenomenal experience is to some degree illusion (contra Cartesian Theatre)
• Richness of available vs. processed information
• Supports ecological approaches, world as representation and memory of its own
• Prediction vs. truth
inactive view of cognition and perception:
• Perception is not having an internal image of the world
• World serves as its own memory
• Perception = integration of sensorimotor contingencies = action control perception
is not having an internal image of the world, but the world works as its own memory
perception is the integration of sensory motor
is perceiving = acting? is het waarnemen van de wereld genoeg om het bewust mee
te krijgen of moet je er op handelen
Lecture 2: The brain
Part I – Location / Neural Correlates of Consciousness
Get to know the most common standpoints on the role of the brain in consciousness
Identity Theorists & Eliminative Materialists: “Consciousness IS brain activity” (we
kunnen consciousness begrijpen adhv het brein)
New Mysterians: “We can never understand consciousness, even with the most detailed
and subtle understanding of brain function possible” Based on dualistic ideas. (we kunnen
consciousness NIET begrijpen adhv het brein)
Extended Minders: (but for a different reason) Consciousness must include the person’s
history, the world around them, and the brain’s interactions with that world. “Consciousness
does not happen in the brain” Noë, 2009 (we kunnen consciousness NIET begrijpen adhv
het brein)
