Slide 28: Sensing As ‘Identifying Identifieds’: Ergative Model Diagram



So our “to boldly go” claim is that the Senser emerges as the Medium through which the process of ‘identifying Identifieds’ unfolds; and therefore that the process of sensing — of perception at least — is the process of ‘identifying Identifieds’.

[By the way, if anyone is interested in the origin of other types of sensing, on this model, we can come back to it in Question Time.]

And with the emergence of this “Meta-Medium”, the Senser, and “Meta-Process”, sensing, the valeur of the additional participant, Agent or Range, changes from Identifier of the identifying process to the Phenomenon of the sensing process.
