On Simultaneity and Serial Order
Abstract:
This presentation will describe a theory of subjective duration and the
transition across moments of experience. The account develops from
studies in neuropsychology and their application to process thought in
philosophy. The concept of overlapping presents (William James) is
explored in some detail to show how both persistence (recurrence) and
transience relate to what is recalled and what is perceived.
