dc.description.abstractThe Michelson-Morley experiment of 1887 was the watershed in our coming to understand how differently waves propagate. As such, it ought also to have been the watershed in our coming to understand how hearing differs from seeing and how differently we encounter the world and ourselves within it when listening rather than looking. After amplifying these remarks, I suggest in conclusion that philosophers seeking for the 'self' would have been well-advised to listen rather than look for it.en_US
