Shaun Gallagher "Self-consciousness and interoception: From Avicenna to contemporary embodied neuroscience"
Abstract: Body self-awareness is included in the concept of minimal self-consciousness or what phenomenologists call first-person, pre-reflective self-awareness, a concept related to phenomenal experience (qualia) and sentience. Despite its relevance to a variety of complex issues a number of theorists have recently pointed out that the concept is not well defined. In order to provide some clarification about the role of the body and sensory processes in minimal self-consciousness I'll consider a well-known 11th century thought experiment: Avicenna’s Flying Man argument. I'll propose an updated version -- the super flying man -- that takes into consideration our contemporary neuroscientific understanding of interoception.
