EV - 92 The Mind’s Void with Dr. Keith Frankish pt.1

As far as I can tell, I'm having the phenomenal sensation of joy at finally getting to have this conversation with Dr. Keith Frankish. Keith is a brilliant proponent of the theory of Illusionism with regard to the existence of phenomenal state. I've read many of his papers and think they're excellent, and while Keith and I come from "different churches" when it comes to philosophy of mind, we agree on a lot, especially what's at stake in all of this, so it's really fun working through these arguments with him. We wen't long so there's a part two. Apologies for any terminology we didn't define sufficiently.
