Teaching the Meat
on: December 20, 2015, 04:23:50 PM
We've no idea how even such a simple thing as guiding a fork full of food to our mouth is carried out let alone the complication of piano performance. All we can do is present to the 'meat' the thing we want carried out - in the most appropriate way for
its
grasping. Therein lies the art of learning. Ultimately the 'meat' is the brains of the matter - if you can't speak its language, hard luck.

That's what you call an equivocation fallacy. Haha
