Please don’t make problems that take that long to solve, please

All the history and like 2 sentences on the experiment... gah

Solve? The question should be could a blind man after touching be able to draw a cube or sphere? Or sculpt them? Answer is of course they can because touch/sound provides sensual spatio-temporality & analogy/abstraction is the 1st higher brain function. Ergo it's a non-problem!

I suspect the answer is "no"; While we perceive a relationship between sight and touch, someone blind wouldn't. They wouldn't even be able to describe an edge by sight alone, because knowledge of what an "edge" is was acquired through a different sensory medium.

‘The Cave’ adjacent. btw, you’d look good in a periwig.

My grandfather was best friends with Johnny Walker.

Neat, Stefan! Ancestor looks like you in eyes. My solution to Molyneux Problem is "Yes". Reason: Senses are stereoscopic, like hearing. We throw senses out there with distance. Blind person feels edge as increasing distance. Sight shows same increasing distance. Thus recognized.
