LECTURE/DEMONSTRATION ON QUALIA IN MUSIC
WITH TALKING BY JOSEPH GOGUEN AND DEMONSTRATION BY RYOKO GOGUEN
Philosophers have generally taken a simplistic view of qualia, as
feeling tones associated with basic perceptions, such as a patch of
red. But much more complex qualia appear in music, involving
simultaneous perceptions, sequences of perceptions, emergent
properties of blended qualia, sensory and conceptual discrimination
limitations, both short and long term memory, and more. We will
discuss and demonstrate such phenomena, and also consider
improvisation, mentioning some challenges that it poses to the
philosophy of music. We will argue that certain problematic aspects
of both qualia and improvisation arise from failure to take full
account of the situatedness of human experience, especially its
social contextualization.
