We differ from things without minds in two main ways. First, we are conscious: we instantiate phenomenal properties. Second, we represent our world as being certain ways: we instantiate representational properties. Jeff Speaks explores the nature of phenomenal properties and of representational properties, and the relationship between them.
There are two main ways in which things with minds, like us, differ from things without minds, like tables and chairs. First, we are conscious--there is something that it is like to be us. We instantiate phenomenal properties. Second, we represent, in various ways, our world as being certain ways. We instantiate representational properties. Jeff Speaks attempts to make progress on three questions: What are phenomenal properties? What are representational properties? How are the phenomenal and the representational related?
