PERCEPTION AN INTERDISCIPLINARY ESSAY Hans Kuijper The author, who graduated in Sinology from Leyden University, and in economics from Erasmus University Rotterdam, is a retired civil servant (Ministry of Economic Affairs, The Hague). He has long been fascinated by the matter-mind problem, and can be contacted at j[underscore]kuijper[at]online[dot]nl. ‘The tree, moving some to tears of joy, is in the eyes of others only a green thing that stands in the way’ (William Blake) ‘Beauty is in the eye of the beholder’ (Margaret Wolfe Hungerford) INTRODUCTORY REMARKS 1) Three kinds of readings aroused my interest in perception: • Readings about aesthetics; • Readings about cybernetics; • Readings about informatics. 2) I will not deal with optics, being the scientific study of light, the phenomenon that is visible to the human eye and responsible for the sense of sight. The developments in the sciences of electricity, magnetism and optics, begun in earnest at the beginning of the 17Th century, converged into, and culminated with, the work of James Clerk Maxwell (1831-1879). Acceptance of the ‘electromagnetic field theory’ was the result of this convergence, Its role as a major paradigm in physical science is currently stronger than ever. PHILOSOPHY OF PERCEPTION Perception is a subject philosophers and scientists have been discussing for ages. Historically, systematic thought about perceiving was the province of philosophy. Indeed, perceiving remains of interest to philosophers, and many issues about the process that were originally raised by philosophers are still of current concern. Our awareness of the world we inhabit is awareness from a certain spatial point of view at any point in time. It is constantly changing, though perhaps only in small ways, either because the world changes within the range of our awareness of it or because our orientation towards it changes, or because of both at once. Just as ‘here’ implies an awareness of the world as extending in space away from my point of view on it, so ’now’ implies a sense of the past, and of my awareness of it (memory), and a sense of the possible or probable future (imagination, expectation). It is important to realise that a subject’s experience of the world is both something in the world, a part of the world and its history, and genuinely an experience of the world and hence one of the sources of knowledge about the world (the other sources being reason, testimony and – according to some Indian philosophers – comparison). Perceptual knowledge is knowledge acquired by or through the senses. We cross intersections when we see the light turn green, head for the kitchen when we smell the roast burning, squeeze the pear to determine its ripeness, and climb out of bed when we hear the alarm ring. In each case we come to know something by some sensory means. In each case the resulting knowledge is somehow based on, derived from or grounded in the sort of experience that characterises the sense modality in question. Seeing that a piece of fruit is rotten differs from smelling, or tasting, that it is rotten, not in what is known, but in how it is known. In each case the information has the same source – the rotten piece of fruit – but it is, so to speak, delivered via different channels and coded in different experiences. It is important to avoid confusing perceptual knowledge of facts (e.g. that a fruit is rotten) with the perception of objects (e.g. a rotten fruit). It is one thing to see, smell, or taste a rotten apple, quite another to know (by seeing, smelling, or tasting) that the apple is rotten. For philosophers, the question is not how we see (a question they leave to physiologists and neuroscientists to answer), but how we perceptually know (if, indeed, we do). Much of our perceptual knowledge is indirect. We see, by the gauge, that we need gas; see, by the newspaper, that our team has lost; see, by her expression, that she is nervous. This sort of knowledge is particularly prevalent in the case of vision, but it occurs in every sense modality. We install a bell so that we can hear (by the bell) that someone is at the door. When we obtain knowledge in this way, it is clear that unless one sees – hence, comes to know – something about the gauge (that it reads ‘empty’), the newspaper (what it says) and the person’s expression, one would not see (hence, know) what one is described as coming to know by perceptual means. If one can’t hear that the bell is ringing, one cannot – not at least in this way – hear that one’s visitor has arrived. Indirect knowledge is sometimes described as inferential, but this is misleading. At the conscious level there is no reasoning, no passage from premise to conclusion. Indirect knowledge, though logically derivative, is psychologically immediate. This immediacy, which does not mean that learning is not required, makes indirect perceptual knowledge a species of perceptual knowledge. Philosophical debate about sense-perception usually focuses on the contrast between appearance and reality. Sometimes things appear as they are, sometimes not; sometimes appearances are deceptive, sometimes not. Whenever we see something, it looks a certain way to us. Likewise, whenever I hear something, it sounds a certain way; and so on. However, looks, sounds etc. can be deceptive. For instance, from a particular angle a round table looks elliptical; when my ears are blocked things sound far away. But there is nothing in the ‘illusory’ look, or sound, that tells me that it is illusory; it is indistinguishable from a ‘veridical’ one, obtained in other circumstances. In other words, I cannot ‘read off’ the properties of an object merely from the ‘look’ it has when I perceive it. Indeed, there may be no object at all, even though it looks as though there were (mirages, hallucinations). This argument drives a wedge between perceptual knowledge and the physical world; it defines the interface between epistemology and ontology/metaphysics. If our senses can mislead us, how are we to know that things are as they appear, unless we already know that our senses are presenting things as they are? Objects can vary in their appearances. How something looks to me depends on the spatial and temporal point of view from which I see it. How things appear depends on the physical, mental, social, and cultural conditions under which I perceive. The same object may appear differently to different observers. One may perceive different aspects of an object, and, in doing so, differ from others. It is sense-perception that has typically raised the largest and most obvious philosophical problems, which may be said to fall into two categories: the problems related to the epistemology-ontology/metaphysics dichotomy, and the problems falling directly under the heading of philosophy of mind, a field of research becoming increasingly incorporated into the rapidly developing cognitive science, that, interrelating with biotechnology, nanotechnology and information technology, also includes linguistics, psychology, sociology, anthropology, education, neuroscience and artificial intelligence (a branch of computer science). The second category of problems are in a sense prior to the problems that exercised many empiricists (as opposed to rationalists) in the first half of the 20th century. They are problems about how perception is to be construed and how it relates to such aspects of the mind’s functioning as sensation, consciousness, concepts (and other things involved in our understanding of things), representation, desire, belief and judgment, memory and imagination, emotion, action, and causal processes. PHYSIOLOGY OF PERCEPTION The way we act and react depends on complex neural processing. Many basic life-supporting neural patterns, such as those controlling respiration and circulation, are similar in all individuals. Some differences in the nervous system of individuals are genetically endowed; the rest are due to environmental encounters and experiences. The nervous system is one of the two major regulatory systems of the human body, the other being the endocrine system, which it intricately interrelates with. The nervous system is organised into the central nervous system, consisting of the brain and spinal cord, and the peripheral nervous system, having two divisions: the afferent division, sending information about the environment to the central nervous system, and the efferent division, sending signals from the central nervous system to other parts of the body. Neurons of the afferent division have sensory receptors that respond to stimuli in both the external and internal environment (sensory and visceral stimuli respectively). Each type of receptor is specialized to respond to one type of stimulus. For example, receptors in the eye are sensitive to light, receptors in the ear to sound waves, and warm receptors in the skin to heat energy. The information detected by receptors is conveyed to the central nervous system, where it is used for a variety of purposes. At the most basic level, afferent input provides information (of which the person may or may not be aware) for the central nervous system to use in directing activities necessary for survival. Central processing of sensory information gives rise to our perception of the world we inhabit. Sensory stimuli can have a profound impact on our emotions. Marcel Proust’s monumental À la recherché du temps perdu is a testimony to it. The smell of a perfume, the taste of a piece of chocolate, the sensuous feel of silk, the sight of a loved one, reading a book, hearing bad news, listening to music – sensory input can gladden, sadden, arouse, calm, anger, frighten, or evoke any other emotion. Physiologists seem to agree on the view that the world, as we perceive it, is not reality. Our perception is the conscious awareness of surroundings derived from interpretations of sensory inputs; it is different from what is really ‘out there’, for several reasons. First, humans have receptors that detect only a limited number of existing energy forms. We perceive sounds, colours, shapes, textures, smells, tastes, and temperature, but are not informed of magnetic forces, polarised light waves, radio waves, or X-rays because we do not have receptors to respond to the latter energy forms. What is not detected by receptors, the brain will never know. Our response range is limited even for the energy forms for which we do have receptors. For example, it has been estimated that dogs, in general, have an olfactory sense ranging from one hundred thousand to one million times more sensitive than a human’s (in some dog breeds the olfactory sense may be up to 100 million times greater than a human’s). Second, the information channels to our brain are not high-fidelity recorders. During precortical processing of sensory input, some features of stimuli are accentuated and others are suppressed or ignored. Third, the cerebral cortex manipulates the data, comparing the sensory input with other incoming information as well as with memories or past experiences to extract the significant features – for example sifting out a friend’s words from the hubbub of sound in a school cafeteria. Optical illusions illustrate how the brain interprets reality. Thus our perceptions do not replicate reality. Other species, equipped with different types of receptors and sensitivities, and with different neural processing, perceive a markedly different world from what we perceive. PERCEPTION, LANGUAGE, AND MUSIC Traditionally, five senses are distinguished: seeing (vision), hearing (audition), taste (gustation), smell (olfaction), and touch (tactation). They have been extensively treated in the literature and allegorically represented by the 19th century Austrian painter Hans Makart (Die fünf Sinne). The word ‘feeling’ is not only used to describe the physical sensation of touch but also to describe such experiences as feeling of warmth (thermoception) and feeling of pain (nociception). The perceptibility of language (Sprachwahrnehmbarkeit) and music (Musikwahrnehmbarkeit) deserves a special mention. Just as the vocal organs have evolved to facilitate the production of speech, so the auditory system seems ‘tuned’ to receive speech patterns. When we hear sounds, we hear them as either speech or non-speech; there seems to be no middle ground. No matter how hard we try, we cannot hear speech as a series of acoustic hisses and buzzes, but only as a sequence of speech sounds. This observation has motivated the field of speech perception. Even after many years of research, the phenomenon of speech perception is little understood. It is strongly related to phonetics and phonology, branches of linguistics which in turn are integral to the structure and use of language. Linguistics, a subfield of semiotics (which itself is part of social psychology), is closely connected not only with logic and argumentation theory but also with the study of culture. If we distinguish between speaking – listening – understanding and writing – reading – understanding, the analogy between the two kinds of language perceptibility becomes immediately clear. Since Plato’s time, the relationship between language and music (‘the wordless language’ about which Michell Serres recently wrote a superb book) has intrigued many thinkers, the predominant view being that the two are independent faculties. In the 1970s, researchers in linguistics, psychology, musicology, neuroscience, computer science and sister disciplines started meeting with increasing frequency to share ideas pertinent to a greater understanding of the mental processes involved in the perception and cognition of music. This group included such towering figures as Donald Broadbent, Noam Chomsky, Ulric Neisser and Herbert Simon. They took the ‘cognitive revolution’ of the late 1950s and 1960s as their common ground, and were drawn to the language-music interface as one way to explore the extent to which different mental abilities are processed by separate brain mechanisms. PSYCHOLOGY OF PERCEPTION In perceiving, psychologists distinguish between bottom-up and top-down processes. The former is also known as data-driven process because the perception process is taken to begin with the sensory stimuli. That is to say, the process goes in one direction from – to give an example – the retina to the visual cortex, with each successive stage in the visual pathway carrying out an ever more complex analysis of the input. ‘Top-down process’ refers to the use of contextual information in pattern recognition. For example, understanding a text/talk (part) is easier when its surrounding text/talk (whole) is given. Context is a notion that can be used in two different ways: the verbal context, consisting of the words that come just before and after a word or sentence and that help to understand its meaning (e.g. the meaning of ‘mad’ depends on its context), and the political, social, historical etc context, consisting of the situation, events, actions, or information related to something and helping to understand it (e.g. the political context of an election). The operational principle of the Gestalt school of psychology is that the brain is holistic, with a self-organising tendency. The human eye sees objects in their entirety before perceiving their individual parts. For a human observer, the image is not a collection of pointillist photoreceptor responses (pixels in computer vision terminology), but a coherency. Contrary to the behaviorists, who try to understand the elements of cognitive processes, Gestalt psychologists seek to understand their organisation. Considering the whole as being other (not: more) than the sum of its parts, and drawing a clear distinction between Gesamtheit (aggregate) and Ganzheit (wholeness), they emphasise the form-generating capability of our senses, particularly with respect to the visual recognition of figures and forms. Max Wertheimer (1880-1943), one of the founders of Gestalt psychology (along with Kurt Koffka and Wolfgang Köhler), insisted that the Gestalt is perceptually primary, defining the parts of which it was composed, rather than being a secondary quality that emerges from those parts, a position taken by Christian von Ehrenfels (member of the epoch-making Brentano School). Complexity scientists in the West are currently inching to the wisdom of the Yijing (book of changes): the parts and the whole are intimately interconnected; they are inseparable from, and non-subordinatable to, each other. Quite simply, it takes two to tango! Contrary to popular belief, our perceptions do not replicate reality. We perceive the world not only through our senses but also through a network of symbols, through a system of things representing other things, through culture for short. Culture, meaning everything in which the human mind is involved, is a mental universe, embodied in the ‘world outside’ — in religion, in art, in philosophy, in science, and in Lebenswelt. It is a tight web of meanings created by humans living together, politically, economically, and socially. Culture is as basic as our physiology. Without culture, we would not be human beings. ‘Data’ are not ‘things that are given’ but things made, fabricated, managed, massaged, manipulated, or falsified. Verum ipsum factum (the true is the made), Giambattista Vico, opponent of Descartes and precursor of complexity thinking, aptly wrote. The senses per se grasp no facts. ‘Les faits ne parlent pas’ (Henri Poincaré). Percepts are bound up with concepts, which are vertiginously complex entities, The mind is not passive in receiving sense impressions. ‘The innocent eye is a myth’ (Ernst Gombrich). ‘We cannot have a view of the world that does not reflect our interests and values’ (Hilary Putnam). Perceiving, the intricate mechanism that guides our actions to navigate the world, is tainted by imagination and illusion. Perceptions are erroneous. We are all indoctrinated if not deceived. ‘Wahrnehmung ist Falschnehmung’ (Franz Brentano). Our observations are always theory-laden. Telescopes, microscopes, camera’s, sensors and detectors, no matter how sophisticated these man-made tools are, do not observe. ‘Information extraction’ and ‘data mining’ are not natural events but human, i.e. culture-bound activities. It may thus be concluded that Immanuel Kant’s Ding an sich will never be known, and that Roger Penrose’s Road to Reality is endless. Uncertainty is ubiquitous, whatever its kind. Ignorance (avidyā) reigns supreme.
