I argue inter alia that the enactive account falsely identifies an object’s apparent shape with its 2D perspectival shape; that it mistakenly assimilates visual shape perception and volumetric object recognition; and that it seriously misrepresents the constitutive role of bodily action in visual awareness. I argue further that noticing an object’s perspectival shape involves a hybrid experience combining both perceptual and imaginative elements – an act of what I call ‘make-perceive.’ date: 2008 date_type: published publication: Mind and Language publisher: Blackwell refereed: TRUE citation: Briscoe, Professor Robert (2008) Vision, Action, and Make-Perceive.
