Course Description:
An examination of philosophical issues surrounding attempts to naturalize aesthetic experience by integrating research in aesthetics and cognitive science. In this context naturalizing refers to attempts to explain aesthetic experiences by reference to the natural psychological processes underlying perception and cognition. The aim of the course is to introduce students to the interdisciplinary field of cognitive science, and to investigate the role psychology and cognitive neuroscience can play in explanations of art and aesthetic experience. The first part of the course introduces issues in aesthetics. The second part examines the role an understanding of the perceptual relationship between viewers and works of visual art can play in an explanation of the aesthetic experiences we associate with art in general. This section investigates the general methodology underlying the interdisciplinary study of aesthetics and cognitive science, and the application of current theories of perception to an understanding of aesthetic experiences.
Course Goals:
1. Provide a general understanding of the objectives and interdisciplinary methods of cognitive science via their application in explanations of art and aesthetic experience.
2. Evaluate how aesthetic experiences are differentiated from ordinary perceptual experiences in traditional and contemporary philosophical literature.
3. Naturalizing aesthetics is an instance of a more general philosophical project. The goal of this project is to investigate, and if possible explain or resolve, traditional philosophical problems in terms natural psychological processes. This course will provide students with the philosophical background to evaluate attempts to naturalize aesthetics.
Requirements:
Students will be required to write two papers: a short paper (6-8 pages) on an assigned topic due at the midterm; and a term paper (12-14 pages) on a topic of their own choice due at the end of the reading period. Students must see me to discuss the topic of their term papers no later than Session 10.

2. Syllabus and Lecture Overview:
A. Aesthetics and The Constructivist
Hypothesis:
Session 1. Introductory Lecture:
The goal of this session is to introduce students to the key concepts and basic model for the interdisciplinary study of cognitive science and aesthetics:
a) the philosophical definition of aesthetics: the study of sensory cognition and the phenomenal character of the experiences associated with artworks.
b) the definition of an interpretation: the application of background art historical and cultural knowledge in the identification of the content of a work of art.
c) a basic philosophical conflict between the role of interpretation and the philosophical definition of aesthetics: it has been argued that what differentiates aesthetic from ordinary perceptual experiences is not their phenomenal content, but rather how viewers interpret them relative to background art historical and cultural knowledge, e.g. conceptual art like the "readymades" of Marcel Duchamp.
d) the definition of a constructivist theory of vision and its implications for the field of aesthetics:
i. expectations and background knowledge concerning the structure and function of scenes and objects play an integral role in the construction of visual appearances;
ii. therefore the conceptual contributions of background art historical and cultural knowledge cannot be so easily separated from the phenomenal content of aesthetic experiences.
e) a solution suggested by a constructivist theory of vision to the conflict between the idea of an interpretation and the philosophical definition of aesthetics: background art historical and cultural knowledge plays a role in the construction of the phenomenal content of aesthetic experiences.
Session 2. Some Background in Aesthetics: Aesthetic Experience and Interpretation:
The goal of this session is to examine in detail: a) the central notion of a theory of aesthetics, i.e. that what individuates artworks from ordinary objects is the unique phenomenal character of aesthetic experiences, and b) a standard objection to theories of aesthetics, i.e. that they cannot adequately account for the role of interpretation in aesthetic experiences.
Session 3. The Fry-Ruskin Thesis:
The Fry-Ruskin Thesis consists of three claims: a) visual artists derive the content of their works from a careful examination of the underlying structure of natural appearances, b)viewers reconstruct the representational content of these works from visual cues derived from this examination, and c) as a result an intuitive understanding of the structure of appearances plays a key role in the production of aesthetic experiences. The goal of this session is to evaluate a) the Fry-Ruskin Thesis as a theory of aesthetics, and b) Gombrich's criticism that it rests on a naive view of vision built upon the impossible notion of an "innocent," or unbiased, eye.
Session 4. The Constructivist Hypothesis:
The goal of this session is to:
a) introduce the idea that the structure of appearances is actively constructed by the visual system, b)introduce a general constructivist model for the study of
cognitive science and aesthetics which suggests that artists' close examination
of the structure of appearances is in fact a close examination of the way the
visual system constructs visual representations, and c) discuss a solution this
strategy suggests for the problem of
interpretation.
B. Bottom-Up
Approaches:
Bottom-up approaches
to aesthetics and cognitive science fix on the neurophysiological structure of
early visual processes. The focus of these theories is on the way artists'
exploit shallow visual effects that are the products of these processes.
Session 5. A Bottom-Up Approach: The Neurophysiology of Aesthetic Experience:
The goal of this session is to: a) introduce Semir Zeki's claim that artists are intuitive neurophysiologists whose works reveal an understanding of the role of the early visual brain in the construction of the structure of appearances, and b) discuss Zeki's thesis within the context of Fry and Ruskin's formalist conception of the practice of painting as a rigorous examination of the structure of appearances.
Session 6. Calder's Mobiles and the Mona Lisa:
The goal of this session is to evaluate a case study which exemplify the bottom-up approach: Semir Zeki's claim that Alexander Calder's sculpture consciously exploits the receptive field properties of motion sensitive neurons.
Session 7. Discussion of Zeki's Thesis:
Zeki's theory does not address
the issue of interpretation. The goal of this discussion is to evaluate two
potential difficulties for Zeki's theory: a) Jennifer McMahon's claim that
Zeki's theory is limited by the fact that it can only explain the perceptual
content of highly abstract works which exploit formal visual elements in
relative isolation, e.g. Calder's use of motion, and b) the claim discussed in
Sessions 2 and 3 that the value of the formal structure of an artwork is
derived from an interpretation.
C. Top-Down Approaches:
Constructivist
theories of vision argue that form perception involves top down processes which
match sensory data to perceptual schema containing prior knowledge about the
shapes and relative sizes of particular types of objects. Top-down approaches
focus on the way artists exploit these processes in the construction of their
works.
Session 8. A Top-Down Approach: A Theory of Perceptual Beauty:
The goal of this session is to examine McMahon's claim that the phenomenal character of the experience of beautiful artworks, objects, and natural scenes involves an intuitive awareness of the role of perceptual schema in the top-down processes subserving form perception.
Session 9. A Top Down Approach: Form Perception:
The goal of this session is to examine evidence supporting McMahon's central claim that viewers can be intuitively aware of key aspects of the perceptual form of a scene or object without being able to appropriately identify them. The goal of this session is to examine evidence supporting McMahon's central claim that viewers can be intuitively aware of key aspects of the perceptual form of a scene or object without being able to appropriately identify them.
Session 10. Discussion: McMahon's Theory of Beauty:
The goal of this session is to
a)discuss McMahon's theory in the context of the Fry-Ruskin Thesis, b) evaluate
her application of the theory to Cubism, and c) evaluate an objection that
whereas the theory can help explain the phenomenal content traditionally
associated with aesthetic experience, it cannot account for the role of
interpretation in the experiences associated with art.
D. Art and the Imagination:
Stephen Kosslyn
argues that visual mental imagery, the act of visualizing something in your
imagination, is an internal, non-perceptual visual experience caused either by
recollecting or conceptualizing something. Gregory Currie suggests a role for
the imagination in the production of aesthetic experiences which exploits the
processes responsible for visual mental imagery.
Session 11. Art and the Imagination:
The goal of this session is to a)introduce Gregory Currie's general model for the role of the imagination in the production of aesthetic experiences, b) introduce Currie's claim that viewing a work of visual art involves a "simulated" act of seeing, and c)discuss the relationship between this model and the constructivist hypothesis.
Session 12. What is Mental Imagery?:
Currie appeals to Stephen Kosslyn's model of visual mental imagery to explain the idea of a "simulated act of seeing." The goal of this session is to discuss a) the top down role of memory and background knowledge in Stephen Kosslyn's model for mental imagery, b)behavioral, neuropsychological, and neurophysiological evidence that supports the claim that mental imagery is in fact a type of visual experience, and c) the resolution that this model suggests to the problem of interpretation.
Session 13. Discussion: Art, Imagination, Mental Imagery, and the
Problem of Interpretation:
The goal of this session is to a)discuss the role of mental imagery in Currie's theory of art and the imagination, and b) evaluate the theory as a resolution to the problem of interpretation that provides complimentary roles for the phenomenal content of aesthetic experience and background art historical and cultural knowledge.
