Reflexivity (Popper): Subject and object are coupled systems, so that any subject’s influence on the object creates a feedback loop that influences the subject, which in turn changes the relationship with the object. Subject and object are not independent of one another. (Also relevant to uncertainty principle)
During early childhood development,
The “external world reality” constructs our brain’s predictive mental models.
As we mature, and brain conditioning occurs,
Our brain’s predictive mental models construct external world reality
This is loosely what the Bayesian Brain represents,
in that our brain’s use predictive [statistical] models to perceive information inputs.
The external world reality does not project onto the mind.
Our mind projects onto the external world reality.
Perception is a controlled hallucination
Culture is shared illusion.
