What does Kant have to say about this?

this is not mind blowing or crazy in any way. If you heard an instrument you have never heard before, you are not going to know what it looks like until you see it. Mods, clean this one up.

This has nothing to do with Kant, but Plato addressed a similar idea in his Allegory of the Cave

One prisoner is freed and dragged outside the cave.
At first, the light (truth) is blinding.
Gradually, he sees reflections, then objects, and finally the sun – representing ultimate truth or the Form of the Good.

Why do you engage with things on such a surface level? The question isnt about what is literally possible. The question is what smarter minds than you have to say about human perception and experience. Kant's project was essenitially expressing things people already subconsciously know in more complicated and proper ways.

This is one of the dumbest comparisons I've ever seen.

You can feel there being four sides on an object. You can't hear there being four sides on a four sided instrument. Are you fucking retarded?

Not a terrible question.

I and others made the mistake of thinking that geometry for instance was essentially constitutive of the world-as-experienced for Kant. But it turns out it isn't - we don't behold circular objects on the basis of a preexisting platonic form as it were. Geometry, while being a priori - is just one system among others, which informs our perception of the world but doesn't have to. Different humans can build a different system of concepts to interpret the world by.

I don't know a lot about this but Strawson goes into it in "The Bounds of Sense" I think. The relationship of the senses to the Kantian system of perception.

This is actually really interesting. Its stuff like this that makes me so interested in philosophy, because only philosophy can really answer "problems" like this.
