A Question about the Brain Imaging

Really interesting. Are you bothered by the press-rel-ese ("Our natural visual experience is like watching a movie"...)?

I'm not sure. First of all, scientists can't be totally trusted to know exactly what they are doing or finding : )

Second of all, the “movie” part speaks to a certain Platonism that my OOO has little trouble with. I mean, every sensual interaction between any entity involves a distorted “translation.” So we can be wide awake, dreaming at the same time, in reality, not in some abstract box separated from it.

As far as I can see this result is very good for OOO.
