99Out of sight but not out of mind: Isomorphism and absent qualiaBehavioral and Brain Sciences 22 (6): 974-974. 1999.The isomorphism constraint places plausible limits on the use of third-person evidence to explain color experience but poses no difficulty for functionalists; they themselves argue for just such limits. Palmer's absent qualia claim is supported by neither the Color Machine nor Color Room examples. The nature of color experience depends on relations external to the color space, as well as internal to it.

35Vehicles, processes, and neo-classical revivalBehavioral and Brain Sciences 22 (1): 170-171. 1999.O'Brien & Opie unfairly restrict the classicist's range of options for explaining phenomenal consciousness. Alternative approaches that rely upon differences among representation types offer better prospects of success. The authors rely upon two distinctions: one between symbol processing and connectionist models, the other between process and vehicle models. In this context, neither distinction may be as clear as they assume.
