Talk by Dan Dennett: Can we know our own minds?

Wed, 2008-10-29 15:35 — Ulrich Schrader

Very thought inspiring talk by philosopher and scientist Dan Dennett about what our consciousness tells us what is real and what is our consciousness. In his talk he also details some remarkable experiments. It might be argued that it is not just consciousness that tricks us, but consciousness in connection with perception that does the trick.
