Episode 13 - The Deficiencies of Phenomenology

Talk given at Parklands (Manchester, UK) on 23rd May 1976. 

What does it mean to describe an object as being ‘out there’? If I say that something is 'out there', it is only so in relation to my body. Instead, consider the object as an appearance within consciousness. To do this we need to get rid of the out there-ness, so that we merely deal with appearances. 

Eugene describes the steps involved in this process of phenomenological reduction...and its consequences.
