Introduction

In The Mind's I, 1981, Harvester Hofstadter and Dennett

Is viewing a record the same as viewing a piece of music? Can one achieve, by interpretation visually the grooves in a record, (or the bits on a CD), the same aesthetically as listening to a piece of music? If so, how, if not, why not? What implications would the truth of this have for music?

Searle slow chinese room and automation - things achieved unconsciously like proficient performance.

Nagel - what is it like to be a bat

Dennett - What is it like to be me?
