  3. Sometimes I do my social noting practice from my office, and I find myself wondering what people might think if they are outside the door and they hear me saying "hardness, coolness, anticipation, pressure, hearing, itching...etc" with absolutely no context 🤪

  4. Might fuck around and start a blacked buddhist thrash band called *Seeds bunt by fire*

    I MUST ONCE AGAIN ASK IF ANYONE HAS CONSIDERED THAT INSTEAD OF HAVING AN ELECTION, WE COULD ALL JUST BE SPRINTING INTO THE WOODS WITH NO INTENTION OF RETURN

  7. I was just hit with a wave of nostalgia for Sunday nights in SLC in the early 90s. A radio show played goth/dark stuff from (maybe) 19-21h, followed by a punk/metal show called Behind the Zion Curtain from (maybe) 21-23h. I listened every week, and that shaped a lot of my tastes

  9. But even when experiences are separated and analyzed conceptually, I don’t think it’s their intrinsic nature to be seperate. And the categorization scheme we choose will always determine what we find. Hence my quasi-illusionism 10/10

  10. being produced through interactions with distal objects, and there will be some aspects of smell and taste that are just as complicated. But my guess is that careful tracking of experience only leaves us with so-called “easy problems” 9/10

  11. changes in temprature and pressure, the urge to drink or consume sodium, flows of air across the hair in your nose, all feel like exactly what they are in the body. Visual processing is likely to be harder, as you need to understand how colors, shadows, blur, etc are 8/10

  12. things like remembering and imagining. But it’s not giving you insight into what you are experiencing at any particular moment. Last claim, I tend to think that when you get to the basic constituents of sensory experience, they end up being far less mysterious 7/10

  13. specific context feels. I am not claiming that there’s nothing there, but I am claiming that the decision to lump a bunch of experiences together & call them the “red” experiences is a simplifying and clustering decision. It’s useful for languaging creatures, and useful for 6/10

  14. But unless you have done a lot of training, my guess is that you aren’t able to hold on to a single experience long enough to pull apart the complex interactions that are unfolding between distinct sensory events, which will shape the way the experience of “red” in a 5/10

  15. Why is that relevant? When we say things like “everyone knows what it’s like to see red”, we ignore the continuous unfolding dynamics of experience. Visual experiences feel like they are wicked stable, because our visual system is constantly sampling and refreshing 4/10

  16. You can try to speed up if you want to, but you will find is that every attempt to label or even to orient is always a step behind what you are actually experiencing. And the reason for that is that experience is impermanent and constantly in flux 3/10

  17. One thing you quickly realize, especially if you are verbalizing you’re notes, is that the state you are in has changed by the time you apply the label. What you are saying is not what you are experiencing, even if it was when you started to say it 2/10

  18. Consciousness 🧵: I’m doing a lot of noting practices right now, where you try to precisely label the state that you are currently in (for example, which sensory event is currently most salient, for these purposes treating thought as a sixth sense). 1/10

  19. Last night my meditation felt like this song sounds...there appears to be a lot of crap rattling around in there...

    Just realized that my consciousness thread became difficult to read because it was embedded in a massively branching tree. There’s something wonderful about that. But I may repost later as its own thread so that it’s readable.

    I’m only half way through this book, but it is wicked interesting.
