ABSTRACT
This chapter outlines some clarifications of the relevant intertwined issues and aims to develop a specific way of connecting experience and space. According to J. Schwenkler, L. Wittgenstein’s example of the moving hand on the face of a clock shows that “visual space involves something more than just the intrinsic spatial structure of a particular object. The key case in question is Balint’s syndrome, in particular a patient RM, who has been studied extensively by Lynn Robertson and colleagues. RM would constitute a genuine counterexample if it satisfies the antecedent but falsified the consequent, rendering it not only empirical but also empirically false. The key point from Schwenkler and Robertson is that what RM has is only implicit coding or unconscious representation of space. But this fits the Kantian formulation defended—namely, that the consequent of Visual Spatiality Thesis should be unconscious representation of space.
