From the “#Ideen” onward, Husserl concentrated on the ideal, essential structures of #consciousness. The metaphysical problem of establishing the #material reality of what we perceive was of little interest to Husserl in spite of his being a #transcendental #idealist. Husserl proposed that the world of objects and ways in which we direct ourselves toward and perceive those objects is normally conceived of in what he called the “natural standpoint”, which is characterized by a belief that objects materially exist and exhibit properties that we see as emanating from them. Husserl proposed a radical new #phenomenological way of looking at objects by examining how we, in our many ways of being #intentionally directed toward them, actually “#constitute” them (to be distinguished from materially creating objects or objects merely being figments of the imagination); in the Phenomenological standpoint, the object ceases to be something simply “external” and ceases to be seen as providing indicators about what it is, and becomes a grouping of perceptual and functional aspects that imply one another under the idea of a particular object or “type”. The notion of objects as real is not expelled by #phenomenology, but “#bracketed” as a way in which we regard objects instead of a feature that inheres in an object’s essence founded in the relation between the object and the perceiver. In order to better understand the world of appearances and objects, phenomenology attempts to identify the invariant features of how objects are perceived and pushes attributions of reality into their role as an attribution about the things we perceive (or an assumption underlying how we perceive objects).

Is it possible to work with children and young adults in an #existential #phenomenological modality? #BrancaSàPires will tell us how. BOOK NOW: community.existentialanalysis.

Tempo on the Pulse

Hi all, a quick #introduction from me. At this time of my life I have relaxed into #retirement and am working towards #senility.

Since 1976, I have been involved with #CommunityRadio, initially with 7CAE-FM in #Hobart #Tasmania, but I am now based out of #Geelong on 94.7 the Pulse with a show called Tempo, where I play such a random selection of music that the show is tagged as "guaranteed to have one track you'll hate."

If this is all too boring, I'm happy to discuss the #phenomenological #analysis of the #ontology of #literature. At your own risk!
