What proponents of sense data (or adverbial contents) will say, however, is that these points fail to show that the perceptual awareness of material objects is direct or immediate in the sense discussed earlier: no tendency to show that material objects (as common-sensically understood) are literally contained within or features of experience.
Note that among the judgments imposed upon us are various perceptual judgments about material objects, about tables and chairs, rainbows and oranges, and so on.
There are judgments of sensation, about the sensory data that are given to us, and there are perceptual judgments, about material objects.
A research framework is suggested, including 1) energy flows in Euclidean geometry, 2) Gibson and Lynch's perceptual environment, 3) material flows and embodied energy, and 4) cross-scale dynamics.
A fundamentally representative realist view can incorporate the view that the perceptual awareness of material objects is direct in the unproblematic, but epistemologically irrelevant ways noted earlier — that it is not arrived at via any sort of inference and that it intuitively "presents" material objects to the perceiver.
First, contrary to what a representative realist view might seem to suggest, our perceptual awareness of material objects is obviously not, at least in ordinary cases, arrived at via anything like an explicit inference from either beliefs about or awarenesses of subjective entities such as sense-data.
But he does allow perceptual judgments, judgments about material objects, to be included among the judgments that form the starting point of inquiry.
There is a class of perceptual experiences of a material object, X, where constancy holds; there is also a class of experiences of X where constancy breaks down.
Neurath rejected, along these lines, the language of the unconscious and the ego, subjective mental states devoid of material -physiological-, perceptual operationalnal correlates.
Yin-yang interaction and further permutations give rise to the five phases, which bear the full range of material and perceptual qualities and whose interaction gives rise to heaven, earth, and the myriad things, i.e., the cosmos.
