Alva Noë

Alva Noë is a philosopher who explores how we perceive and interact with the world. He emphasizes that perception isn't just a passive process in our brains but involves active engagement with our environment through our bodies. According to Noë, our consciousness and awareness arise from our ongoing interactions with the world around us, meaning perception is shaped by movement, context, and activity. His ideas challenge traditional views, suggesting that understanding perception requires considering the dynamic relationship between mind, body, and environment, rather than viewing sensory data as isolated or solely brain-based.
