Depending on how you slice it, we have ~8 sensory systems: —Vision —Hearing —Touch —Taste —Smell —Vestibular (balance) —Interoception (internal organs) —Propriocetion (joints/muscles) Idea: modeling introspection as a 9th “sensory system” Is this stupid? Profound? Fruitful?

Might dissolve the distinction in philosophy between empiricism and rationalism. Is knowledge obtained through physical sensation really in a different category than knowledge obtained through reasoning? I don't think so.
