 In what follows, “experiences” will be restricted to experiences in any of the five modalities or kinesthetic experience or some combination. In the analytic tradition, most of the questions discussed in this entry have been addressed with regard to visual experience and pain. In contrast, the phenomenological tradition explored similar questions with respect to other modalities. For instance, Husserl’s exploration of auditory experience of hearing a melody is central to his discussion of the experience of time (see the entries on  phenomenology,  auditory perception, and the  perception of time).  In principle, however, the questions addressed here could be raised with respect to any kind of experience.
