    Challenges→The Discrete Block model of the specious present fails to account for all experienced transitions between successive tones, and therefore cannot fully explain experienced temporal succession.

    This gap at every boundary between successive specious presents means every inter-present transition fails to be experienced as a succession.

    PT-realists are agreed that change and succession feature in our immediate experience. To be viable on the phenomenological level, a realist account of how this is possible must not just capture some of the change that it is plausible to suppose we directly experience, it must capture all of it. Let us suppose that C-D-E-F in Figure 7 are brief tones that are heard in succession. Given that this sequence is a typical one – with no sudden or massive disruptions in the listener’s consciousness ove
