When I am looking at an apple, I perceptually attribute certain properties to certain entities. Two questions arise: what are these entities (what is it that I perceptually represent as having properties) and what are these properties (what properties I perceive this entity as having)? This paper is about the former, less widely explored, question: what does our perceptual system attribute properties to? In other words, what are these ‘sensory individuals’. There have been important debates in philosophy of perception about what sensory individuals would be the most plausible candidates for which sense modalities. The aim of this paper is to ask a related question about picture perception: what is the sensory individual of picture perception? When we look at a picture and see an apple depicted in it, what kind of entity do we see? What do we perceptually attribute properties to? I argue that the most straightforward candidates (ordinary objects, sui generis sensory individuals, no sensory individuals) are all problematic and that the most plausible candidate for the sensory individuals of picture perception are spatiotemporal regions.

我们在图片中看到了什么?图像感知的感官个体

当我看着一个苹果时,我在感知上将某些属性归因于某些实体。出现两个问题:这些实体是什么(我在感知上将其表示为具有属性的是什么)以及这些属性是什么(我认为该实体具有哪些属性)?本文是关于前者的,但探索较少,问题是:我们的感知系统将属性归因于什么?换句话说,这些‘感官个体’是什么。关于哪些感觉个体最有可能成为哪些感觉形态的候选者,在知觉哲学中存在着重要的争论。本文旨在提出一个与图片感知相关的问题:图片感知的感官个体是什么?当我们看一幅画,看到里面描绘的是一个苹果时,我们看到什么样的实体?我们在感知上将属性归因于什么?我认为,最直接的候选者(普通物体、特殊感觉个体、无感觉个体)都​​是有问题的,并且图片感知的感觉个体最合理的候选者是时空区域。
