Untangling the Worldknot of Consciousness #2 with Gregg Henriques - The Cognitive Science Show

This is the second in a series of dialogues between myself and Gregg Henriques about the problem of consciousness, as part of The Cognitive Science Show. Here we lay out the beginnings of how to formulate the problem. The problem of consciousness is actually made up of three problems: 1) The function problem: what does consciousness do? 2) The nature/generation problem: how something like consciousness fit into the scientific worldview? 3) The integration problem: what is the relationship between the answers to questions (1) and (2)? Gregg and I are going to spend a lot of time in formulating these problems clearly through historical, phenomenological, and functional analysis before responding to them.
