35Gehlen writes that “in the blind, movements of the limbs are accompanied only by expectations of tactile sensations; in the sighted, these are also accompanied by images of the results of movements.” (Gehlen 1988, p. 171). In this context he refers to G. H. Mead (Mind, Self, and Society), who understands “‘imagery’…as the ‘filling out’ of perceptual things with the ‘contents of past experience.’ If there is any factual substance to the concept of the ‘reproductive synthesis of the power of imagination,’ from the first edition of the Critique of Pure Reason, then it must be this.” (Gehlen 1988, 171.)
