  • Yes, as the first question says: "isn't experience a bunch of qualia..." Maybe you add, that it's integrated as well. But the point of the question is: can you find a qualia that's not part of experience ? i.e we can not have the same experience and different qualia so imho the same explanations that are valid for explaining experience, are valid to explain qualia (that's my main thought behind, which seems to be not popular.)

  • Yeah, my (naive) understanding is that experience is the sum of the qualia that make it up. So there is no qualia that's not a part of experience. If we have the same qualia we will have the same experience and vice versa. But again, that's my naive understanding. (Sounds like I'm in a similar place as you). Commented Dec 31, 2023 at 4:49
