Being at rest, or sleep, is an activity. While it is perceived as being in a state of inactivity, the mind, body, and soul are active in regeneration. There are physical and mental actions taking place that aren't readily observable.
As words (verbal) are only, what, 7 % of communcation, your non-verbal languages is highly appropriate and point to the things in themselves. In fact, your movements are uncovering the That which is Causing the arm to move -- at all! I can see! More philosophy teachers, especially Platonists, would be wise to speak on two level simultaneously. That great weakness of Western Philosophy, after the early Greeks, is that there is nothing immediately mystical. One must be at once poetic and exact in order to get anyway. Glory to you.
You are misrepresenting the non verbal study that you're referencing. The study focused on single words, not phrases or sentences. That being said, it is sad that philosophy has been used to distance people from magic.
Matter in Aristotle is not stuff at all. It's the opposite of stuff. What is potential is not stuff. What a gross misrepresentation. Matter is the activity of receptivity that makes form appear and also change.
Thank you for posting the video. I find the lecture very gripping and fun. It helps me a lot!
"Very gripping". Good phrase. Will use.
A french third year of philosophy student here, this helped ! Thanks

Insightful instruction, many good examples about concepts, thanks
Your lectures are great.
Matter is to form as potentiality is to actuality

The correct greek word for "form" is "eidos" not "morphe"
