Iron filings do a pretty good job of showing us "lines" in physical reality.
- colemannugent 9y agoThe iron filings actually concentrate the field, which leads to a bit of an avalanche effect as the concentrated field attracts more filings towards it that creates the lines. Those lines are entirely conceptual.
- mkempe 9y agoIf you see these lines in the iron filings, they are perceived, i.e. perceptual-level evidence not conceptual.
