If you can show that subjective experience exists in Platonia, you can use that to show that some things will "seem" dynamical. If you can show that there a dynamic processes in Platonia, you can use that to show there are running computations and therefore minds, and therefore experiences. But can you do both without circularity? > Bruno > > > http://iridia.ulb.ac.be/~marchal/ --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Everything List" group.
