Searle on philosophy of perception:

Naive realism – a view of perception in wich the perceiver as direct access to the object
perceived

Arguments against naive realism by philosophers Locke, Descartes, Hume, kant, espinoza… :
argument from illusion: ex allucination

You are not perceiving the stick directily you only perveive the appearence that the stick
presents , the appearence of the stick , the word for those appeareances is sense data , you
always see sense data never material objects.

And there is no qualitative diference between the experience he had when he saw the
allucination and the real thing

According to the sense data theory the act of perception is that wich is itself perceived

What’s the relation between the sense data that he does perceive and the material object
that he does not perceive?

Arguments of illusion : argument of double vision; the round coin perceived as eliptical;

Searle wants to rescue naive realism

Hume makes the distinction between impressions and ideas

perception is always connected to an apparatus

Dreyfus :
Consciousness is not something inner

Understanding is very similar to action: in acting one understands both the world and one’s
project.
The fundamental structure of human being is care for oneself: “in acting i project an image
of myself, so my freedom becomes my ability to create myself as i wish to be before an other
who will see me as that what i wich to be” (Heidegger, 1992: 1.I.iv)

My acts make me , they are me , there’s no distinction between my acts and me.

A consciência é a minha capacidade para interpretar os meus próprios actos?
