Ep. 223: Guest Ned Block on Consciousness (Part Two)

The Partially Examined Life Philosophy Podcast

We talk with Ned about a second Blockheads (2019) article, Michael Tyle's β€œHomunculi Heads and Silicon Chips: The Importance of History to Phenomenology," which provides a variation off of the David Chalmers fading qualia argument, and then Mark, Seth, Dylan, and Wes continue exploring the details uncovered by our interview after Ned leaves.

End song: "Your So Dark Sleep/Goodbye" by The Black Watch, as interviewed on Nakedly Examined Music #102.
