About Julian Feitsma

“What we [...] call 'mind' penetrates so deeply into our 'reality' that the very enterprise of embarrassing ourselves as 'imageers' [...] is doomed from the start [...] an impracticable attempt to see the world from nowhere.“ Hilary Putnam (1926-2016)

Truth, as a philosophical aspect, is understood as true justified belief. Belief is determined by a certain view of the world, which is ultimately defined through experiences, memories, verification, conviction and fears. What is the actual „so-being“ of things, what defines truth and experience?
