Individuating Experiences
Arnold, I'm embarrassed.  I think you did catch me out.  Obviously, you can get from the experience some knowledge of what you are experiencing. 

In fact, I was thinking of a talk given by a vision group at Univ of Houston, and I think the point was that you couldn't get an experience of the whole thing if you couldn't put it togther before or during; the contrast was with an array of dots which couldn't or wasn't seen as a pattern.  Perhaps, though, I should confess that it is this talk I'm relying on - along with a bunch of their articles - and my memory is faulty.
