Perception and Perceptual Contents
2021I examine Aristotle’s views on the contents of perception, and how they bear on the role perception plays in our learning. I defend a broad interpretation of perceptual objects and contents, on which we perceive not just colors, sounds, and so on, but Callias, lyres, loaves of bread, and whether Callias is near, and the lyre well-tuned, and the loaf ...

The Content of Perceptual Experience
2009Abstract Our waking life involves a constant stream of perceptual experience. But what is it, exactly? What is the content of perceptual experience? This is a very difficult question to answer satisfactorily, and it has been made a great deal more difficult by the fact that almost all the key terms in the debate have been used in ...

Reconsidering Perceptual Content
Philosophy of Science, 2009An important class of teleological theories cannot explain the representational content of visual states because they fail to address the relationship between the world, projected retinal stimuli, and perception. A different approach for achieving a naturalized theory of visual content is offered that rejects the traditional internalism/externalism ...

When we perceive a physical object we have a perceptual experience caused by that object. It is common to hold that such experiences have two aspects: a sensuous, sensory aspect and an intentional aspect. The experience is intentional in the sense that it carries intentional content: it represents (things in the world) as being a certain way.

Perceptual Content in the Stoics
Phronesis, 1990There is a view about animal phantasia in the Stoics which has the best possible credentials', and is likely to become an orthodoxy. And yet I hope that somehow it can be resisted, because if it is true, I believe the Stoics will be in deep trouble, while if it is false they will be in the clear. According to this view, animal phantasia is rudimentary.

The Content of Perceptual Experience
2018Attention performs two constitutive roles in perceptual experience. This chapter argues that this claim is motivated by a need to respect two apparently competing insights about experience, one having to do with its epistemic role in supplying reasons for our beliefs about the world around us, the other to do with the phenomenology of openness to the ...

Colour vision, evolution, and perceptual content
Synthese, 1995Computational models of colour vision assume that the biological function of colour vision is to detect surface reflectance. Some philosophers invoke these models as a basis for ‘externalism’ about perceptual content (content is distal) and ‘objectivism’ about colour (colour is surface reflectance). In an earlier article (Thompson et al.

Content discovery using perceptual automation
Proceedings of the 10th International Conference on Management of Digital EcoSystems, 2018In this work, an innovative media content discovery and selection system is proposed based on human behavior. There were two parts to this project: first, in the perception phase, a speech signal is used for analysis with the intention to detect and extract emotional cues; and second, in the automation phase, textual information was used to determine ...

Surface Colour is not a Perceptual Content
Australasian Journal of Philosophy, 2014In this paper, I consider a view that explains colour experience by the independent representation of surface and illumination. This view implies that surface colour is a phenomenal perceptual content. I argue from facts of colour phenomenology to the conclusion that surface colour is not a phenomenal perceptual content.
