James GleickI’m stumped. As usual, I’m supposed to persuade a robot that I am not a robot. Does the bottom-center square contain a bicycle?
I know what René Magritte would say.
Farce Majeure
Keith Wilson@vathpela @JamesGleick THERE ARE NONE
@vathpela @JamesGleick Though my former colleague and Emeritus Professor of #Philosophy @MichaelMorrisPhilosopher thinks that [the bicycles in]* pictures of bicycles are in fact bicycles. They’re just not REAL bicycles. So he would presumably answer differently… 😉
[*edit]
Ralph Brooker@keithwilson @vathpela @JamesGleick @MichaelMorrisPhilosopher Michael taught me. Looking forward to this especially.
Michael Morris@RalphBrooker @keithwilson @vathpela @JamesGleick
Yes, my view is in there!
@MichaelMorrisPhilosopher @keithwilson @vathpela @JamesGleick I’d read Kathleen Stock’s ‘Only Imagine’ and felt sympathetic to the what she calls extreme intentionalism. Roughly, from which there’s no scope to see a motorbike in the chalk marks (pace Wimsatt et al). I notice you cite KS. Looking forward to see how that pans out. But I may be on the wrong track here.
@RalphBrooker @keithwilson @vathpela @JamesGleick
I have a completely different view!
