Conscious vision: Why wait?

Joost de Jong

Abstract

Fleming and Michel convincingly argue that the water-to-land transition put evolutionary pressure on the temporal structure of conscious vision. But their interpretation of postdictive effects, which leads them to conclude that conscious vision is slow, suffers from conceptual issues and inadvertently leads them to an overly discrete and serial model of temporal consciousness.
