A mirror which is itself a physical object is an active condition for the situation of a patch of colour behind it, due to the reflection of light in it. Thus the origin of scientific knowledge is the endeavour to express in terms of physical objects the various rôles of events as active conditions in the ingression of sense-objects into nature.

Furthermore this concurrence in the situations of sense-objects has led to the body i.e. the percipient event so adapting itself that the perception of one sense-object in a certain situation leads to a subconscious sense-awareness of other sense-objects in the same situation. This interplay is especially the case between touch and sight.

Thus the fact that an event is a situation in the ingression of one set of sense-objects into nature is presumptive evidence that that event is an active condition in the ingression of other sense-objects into nature which may have other situations. This is a fundamental principle of science which it has derived from common sense. I now turn to perceptual objects.

There is a certain correlation between the ingressions of sense-objects of touch and sense-objects of sight into nature, and in a slighter degree between the ingressions of other pairs of sense-objects. I call this sort of correlation the 'conveyance' of one sense-object by another. When you see the blue flannel coat you subconsciously feel yourself wearing it or otherwise touching it.
