Abstract:
How crucial a role do reason, memory and planning play alongside lower-level sensorimotor skills in our visual activity? Andy Clark has recently proposed a new skill-based account of seeing. This suggests there is more to perception than only the mastery of sensorimotor contingencies, as O'Regan, Noë and others have stressed in recent influential papers.
