Phantom sensations: A neurophenomenological exploration of body memory. Breyer, T. Neuroethics. Paper doi abstract bibtex This paper brings neuroscientific experiments into relation with concepts from phenomenological phi- losophy to investigate phantom sensations from the per- spective of embodied subjectivity. Using a mirror device to create intersensory effects in subjects experiencing phantom sensations, one can create illusions aiming at alleviating phantom pain. Neuroplasticity as a general property ofthe brain and cortical remapping as a specific mechanism underlying the success of this procedure are interpreted with the phenomenological notions of body image, body schema, and body memory. It is argued that a phantom can be understood as an ambiguous unity of body-imagistic neglect and body-schematic remember- ing. This neurophenomenological approach highlights the significance of the polarity of subjective-objective embodied experience one the one hand, and the spatial and temporal horizons of the emergence ofphantoms on the other. Thereby, implicit and explicit forms ofremem- bering, habitual and reflective modes of behavioural and cognitive self-representation and -understanding can be compared according to how the body integrates its vari- ous sensations.
