That's because it's insane ...the moon is a quantum sphere that rotates the earths axis, you can't prove it. Or something like that, it's not just a rock. It's some abstract theory on transcdental spacetime as temporary and the satellite physics of the moon in relation to earth. Time is set to reverse itself in the year 4000, it's an actual thing, like how we use to be BC, now we are in AD. This is just his watered down social science.

Here are some videos about projective geometry, universal hyperbolic geometry:- kzread.info/dash/bejne/ma6VzsSHfMbdd6w.html "All geometries are projective geometries" -- Arthur Cayley. Projective points (lines) are dual to projective lines (planes) -- the principle of duality in projective geometry. Points (poles) are dual to lines (polars). Quadrance is dual to spread. There is a pattern of duality hardwired into physics, mathematics & philosophy. The word "projective" implies at least two, an origin or projector and a screen to be projected onto -- it is therefore dual. The observed is dual to the observer -- David Bohm. "Always two there are" -- Yoda.

An alternative way to understand the phrase "Copernican Revolution", is that before Copernicus, people believed the Earth was stationary. It sat there passively as the rest of the universe moved around it. And Copernicus revealed that it is the Earth which moves. It is an active element in the universe. In the same way, people before Kant believe that the mind passively receives impressions from the world which acts on it. But Kant showed that the mind actively constructs those impressions. It is an active element in perception.

Dr. B for the win as always! Astoundingly clear explanation for my undergrad ears.. So many thanks!!

I think a key component to Kant's theory that has been lost to modernity due to science and now postmodernism veiling its existence, is Noumenon. It's his unchanging realm around the world of phenomenon. It's the realm beyond Hegel's geist. I find that in presentations like this one and most contemporary writers on the subject seem to downplay his emphasis on "metaphysics", giving it the position of a kind of broad psychology. But I think of it as a true metaphysics--a physics which includes transcendent realities, those objective AND numinous elements of the noumenon. The realm of phenomenon is all we accept today and thus, using Hegel's dialectic magic, have had to alchemize our language and theory to create a kind of synthetic noumenon. I've heard a lot of talk about a return of the logos, which I think has been encaged by Hegel's geist. But I think of this less in Greek or gnostic terms as much as in Kantian terms (with some Otto and Jung and others), in that we have lost our connection to Noumenon while chasing the synthetic. While Kant argued we can only know things subjectively, he argued for the existence of an unchanging realm. Maybe I'm not understanding this well and drawing connections where they shouldn't be

Thanks professor! Greetings from Sweden. I enjoy following your lectures while doing part-time jobs, to boost my philosophical work and studies in the rest of the day. My school even use some of your books for a few smaller courses. To anyone watching and/or reading this, I can highly recommend Roger Scruton's introductory book on Kant (Oxford University Press). Also, at least reading Prolegomena (a few times) will greatly help you to understand Kant. I think professor Bonevac does a brilliant job of laying out all the important stuff here, but would like to stress, that one ought to resist any relativist/subjectivist/strong antirealist notions misleading one to construe Kant as meaning that we somehow construct the world willfully and that that construction would be infinitely malleable (like the intersectionalists/constructivists believe). To a very small degree, in some circumstances we may play some part, and we may be able to affect things through our attitudes, add or modify our beliefs, either willfully, or by negligence/ignorance, and so on, but it's one thing to speak of the world as a product of our minds (for us as humans, human condition, pre-sets, possible experience, essentially still retaining objectivity within our collective human framework etc.) and something entirely different to claim that the world fundamentally is, ontologically speaking, merely a case of constructivism. Sadly, many believe and actively promote that line of thinking (especially within sociology, while having zero grasp of philosophy, let alone metaphysics, even of their own subject). This difference we can see in the contemporary political battles. I think anyone clever and sharp enough knows what I mean. I love Kant and Wittgenstein, properly understood (the resolute reading), is a great continuation of the Kantian project of a synthesis between modest realism and modest antirealism.

Well, Prof Bonevac did stress that point. He said something like "obviously this (the fact that reality is mentally constructed) doesn't mean that we don't need to go to school and learn stuff about reality; "the world conforming to our experience" doesn't mean that we can shape reality with our minds as we wish" ... and then he spent basically the rest of the video explaining how we can know the objects of our experience by knowing the fundamental structures of our 'projectors', which implicitly conveys, imo quite clearly, that those structures are what they are and not the product of whatever we want them to be. I ofc agree with what you said (cuz it's correct), but I just think that anyone who actually paid attention to the video would understand it.

Kant was absolutely right in the transcendental aesthetic. The two-capacitor paradox proves it in time, Gabriel's horn proves it in space - you cannot have enough paint to paint the surface area but can have enough to fill its internal volume, so you could pour out the paint and have half the surface area covered. It doesn't have the implications people believe and is widely misunderstood. It doesn't make Kant a solipsist. He proves the Berklian view as absurd and apparently does the same thing with Leibniz, I don't quite understand the proof against Leibniz, but the case is clear but not conclusive IMO. Reading Allison clarifies Kant, although many books on the deduction are excellent. I wonder if there is anything post-Kantian on the philosophy of mind that is as good?. I wonder if there is such a thing as an honest academic - Kant has enemies and is hated. The category of quality has been a hard point for me. Comments?

Oh, interesting, Kant's view sounds like a view in neuroscience I've been hearing about called predictive coding or predictive processing. From what I understand it's the view that perception is the result of negotiation between top down understandings of the world (priors) and raw sense data (evidence). There was an experiment done where participants were shown anomalous playing cards such as a black four of hearts. Given a brief exposure, they usually identified the cards without noticing anything was wrong. The black four of hearts was sometimes identified as a four of hearts or a four of spades; it was automatically fit into one of some predefined perceptual categories. Perhaps you could even say that logic was responsible for mediating between the different possible perceptions, since I don't believe it would have been identified as a four of diamonds. Maybe the brain was running some kind of deductive process starting with card color (resulting in a perception of a spade) or starting with suit (resulting in a perception of hearts).

"critique critiquing itself" or as Ramana Maharshi used to say "is using a thorn to remove a thorn".

Bruh, this was a sick ass explanation of some dppe ass concepts. On the real though, I appreciate kants willingness to say "absolute truth is out of humans scope." I think in some ways mans awareness of the gap between phenomena and the minds constructed interpretation of an object has driven so much of what we call progress. Whenever we find a phenomenena that does not conform to our existing priori were driven AF to create a better interpretation. I also think its a trip how humanity as an entity has created tools of observations which in themselves interpert natural phenomena into an observable constructions ala the projector. So a simple example would be infa red or radio waves. These phenomena exist, but are unobservable by human "Intuition." So obvi humans can't TRULY see or hear these phenomena, but we observe a constructed interpretation. And once you can see some shit, you can use it, in some instances manipulate it. E.g.. we make radio signals. Whats got me hyped recently is out ability to see gravity. Look that shit up if you haven't heard about it. But we've begun detecting gravitational waves through their minute distortion of space time. Think about what we'll be able to do with that!

The last half of his 3rd belongs at the end of his 1st.

Isn’t the question that Kant hasn’t maybe asked, how can he know this? His experience is one of growing in a place where he had these concepts given to him as he grew up. They were implanted in him, albeit unknowingly, as he developed. Outside input was teaching him things that he assumes are a priori. To then think that this knowledge is a priori he would need to study someone who hadn’t ever had human contact or any external feeding of information. Our experience conforms to the objects and our a priori knowledge isn’t a priori, it’s learnt. Instinct is a different value to understanding

What happens when the categories of the mind are applied to the categories of the mind? Is that what gives rise to our sense of metaphysical reality in constview or in any other philosophers view?

How did Helen Keller’s synthetic apriori intuition inform her about the objects of experience?

Hi Daniel. I would appreciate any help with understanding Immanuel Kant’s philosophy of space and time and would appreciate some clarification on the metaphysical implications of Kant’s view of space and time, especially as someone who isn’t familiar with Kant’s ideas (even though I am interested). From what I know, Kant claims that both space and time only exist in the mind. As far as I understand, space and time wouldn’t exist for Kant if it was not for the human mind - it has no external mind-independent/objective reality. Am I right or wrong about this? (Is Kant only making an epistemological claim and not an ontological one? If this is the case, space and time would be incoherent without our mind, but space and time would still have some type of existence independent of our mind - maybe it would be chaotic?) If my assessment of Kant’s doctrine on space and time are valid, I was wondering then is there no objective reality that exists for Kant? If so, what is it, if it does not include space or time? Also, is Kant’s doctrine on time compatible with the growing block metaphysical theory of time (the past and present exist, but the future doesn’t exist) in contrast to both presentism (the present is real but the past and future are not real) and eternalism (past, present and future all equally coexist with one another)? Thanks for any response with these questions! 😃 I also apologise for my ignorance regarding Kant

For Kant time and space only exists in mind as universal necessities which are functions of mind that help in structuring our experience and they don’t exist in reality. I would say he got it wrong ( time and space exist even before humans). For your second question Kant is saying world cannot be known. He doesn’t say it exists or doesn’t exist. But for practical reasons world, God etc. becomes a necessary precondition in Kants philosophy. So in theoretical sense he says he can’t say they actually exist or not but says they are preconditions for practical reasons.

Is saying an object will reflect light, or vibrations, sound waves etc a kind of a-priori knowledge of the thing itself?

He said something along the lines of "Reality doesn’t look like anything because ‘looking like something’ is a property of the internal models that the various conscious agents have of the outside world. Only internal models look like something. There’s no clear naked direct way to perceive reality; any perceiving (by its very definition) happens indirectly through a representation". Off course i have problems getting used to this, it brakes our naive but enchanted view of the world.

This reminds me somehow of the way stereotypes shape how we perceive others. But it is weird to think we come into this world preequipped with concepts without which we couldn't make sense of the world. Let's take a chair. I know what a chair is because I was repeatedly exposed to chairs in my life and soon developed an understanding of what it is used for. This would be a realist's view. Kant would say I identify the chair and know everything about it (?) because I have a priori knowledge of it. When I see a chair for the first time in my life I will naturally sit down on it. But why do cultures without chairs not immediately understand the use of a chair? For example Aborigines before European contact. If the fixed (?) inventory of concepts is culture-specific, then is it impossible for Aborigines to acquire knowledge about the use and design of a chair? Clearly not, but how does Kant explain creative processes that make necessary the acquisition of new concepts?

Immanuel Kant had a mind duality and this is completely consistent with these new laws of physics! "I have awoken from my dogmatic slumbers" -- Immanuel Kant. Absolute truth is dual to relative truth -- Hume's fork.

@@Impaled_Onion-thatsmine Being is dual to non-being creates becoming -- Plato's cat. Alive is dual to not alive -- the Schrodinger's cat superposition. Thesis (alive, being) is dual to anti-thesis (not alive, non-being) creates the converging thesis or synthesis -- the time independent Hegelian dialectic or Hegel's cat. Schrodinger's cat is based upon Hegel's cat and he stole it from Plato. Plato was a student of Socrates so the dialectic comes from the Socratic method or dialectic. Dyads, dialectic = duality. Antinomy (duality) is two truths that contradict each other (paradox) -- Immanuel Kant. Duality is two sides of the same coin (heads, tails) -- two differing perspectives of the same thing. In physics null vectors (photons, light) are perpendicular to themselves from our perspective and perpendicularity requires at least two. Electro is dual to magnetic -- electro-magnetic energy (light) is therefore dual. The Christian cross is built from perpendicularity -- duality. I am not too sure what you are saying so I will ignore it. Nothing wrong with my brain as once you have a deep understanding of duality you can create new laws of physics:- Syntropy (prediction, projection) is dual to increasing entropy -- the 4th law of thermodynamics! The conservation of duality (energy) will be known as the 5th law of thermodynamics! Energy is duality, duality is energy -- Generalized duality. "Always two there are" -- Yoda. Concepts are dual to percepts -- the mind duality of Immanuel Kant. Transcendental logic (concepts) is dual to transcendental aesthetic (sensory perception) -- Immanuel Kant. The intellectual mind/soul (concepts) is dual to the sensory mind/soul (percepts) -- the mind duality of Thomas Aquinas. The philosophy of Kant et al. just reinforces the physics.

This lecture convinces me much philosophy is mytifying speculation. Tricks played by language, rhetoric, metaphor. Of course, some philosphy is sometimes a demystification; but way too little of it.

And yet he presupposes regularity in order to apply scientific hypotheses. Obviously the universe doesn’t have obligations, that doesn’t mean that you can just throw out fun anti-intellectual quotes that can only be meaningfully applied to the end of ceasing the quest for knowledge.

The problem with this guy is that he has his own philosophical vocabulary. He doesn’t take the text as it presents itself. Instead he has a style of argument that he imposes in the text. So if you try to read the texts he’s talking about, you would have no idea. Because this guy thinks he’s smart, and he is, but he won’t help you learn about all the philosophers he’s talking about.

All do respect, you can always just read Kant’s work, or read along with a readers guide. Professor Bonevac is lecturing us (for free, mind you) as he would his students. But its not as if he’s assigning us homework and is free to contact to clear up questions in person or by email. If you want to learn this material you’ll have to grapple with it (as you do in the classroom, through homework, outside reading , etc.) I’d say this is a great primer on Kant, and again, it’s free! And considering any ole’ schmuck can upload a KZread video, and Professor Bonevac has actually been teaching this material for years, I’d say it’s one of the better primers you’re going to get.

He’s an incredibly well-respected college professor who’s letting you watch his lectures for free. He’s made this easily digestible and he’s not assuming you’re completely ignorant since this probably comes at the midpoint of the semester, so don’t complain about your own ignorance going in.

Kant is a bad philosophy.
