Richard Feynman on hungry philosophers (or do we see objects or only their light)
Zero
A one-minute clip from Richard Feynman's 1979 Auckland lecture in which he answers whether you see an object or only its light. It is a short, playful take on perception and on the use of philosophy.
HN uses it to illustrate Feynman's wry view of philosophical questions and perception.
