The self is an activity.
podcast-host
That's why.
podcast-host
It's involved deeply in this notion of a narrative model.
podcast-host
The self is the ongoing event of these distinctions and discriminations that are being made in this location with this entity.
podcast-host
So I'm an entity and you can we can talk about what makes me an entity.
podcast-host
And then as a self, it is made up of all those discriminatory activities.
podcast-host
You know, his going into the a variety of nature's terrible experiments is going through multiple personality disorder, fractional self, split brains, stuff like that are examples to try to get to the notion that the self is a unification that is consistent with the multiple drafts model.
podcast-host
for who we are.
podcast-host
Well, it does generate the seeming, right?
podcast-host
So it let's just read this second.
podcast-host
When someone says, I know that the ring isn't really pink, but it sure seems pink.
podcast-host
The first clause expresses a judgment about something in the world, and the second clause expresses a second order judgment about a discriminative state about something in the world.
podcast-host
The semantics of such statements makes it clear what colors supposedly are reflective properties of the surfaces of objects, or of transparent volumes, the pink ice cube, the shaft of limelight.
podcast-host
And that's just what they are, in fact.
podcast-host
Though saying just which reflective properties they are is tricky.
podcast-host
So the second component, it sure seems pink.
podcast-host
I would understand that second-order judgment as talking about what we would typically agree with, or what I would communicate to another person, or my understanding of what pink is.
podcast-host
And the reason they're having the seeming is you're comparing to a model of what pink.
podcast-host
Yeah.
podcast-host
And so it seems pink.
