Daniel Dennett and 'Eternal sunshine of the spotless mind'

Click here to go to video.

Daniel Dennett throws some interesting questions about mind and solipsism.

My prime interest is philosophy of mind, and naturally I've been drawn into reading Daniel Dennett who is a proponent of presenting physicalist picture of mind. This audio was taken from "Kinds of Minds: Towards an Understanding of Consciousness".

Is it really love if the other boy or a girl you love has no way to conceive that you love him or her? Since there is no known mechanism of actualize our thoughts other than through physical medium, in order for the love you try to complete must be conveyed physically. Your prayers won't work. Dreaming about it won't work. Thinking about it won't work. You have to talk to that person.
