This representation is just what spontaneous memory supplies. Habit memory is empty of representation. Spontaneous memory, if unchecked, would overload our consciousness with pictures of our past. The urge of spontaneous memory restrained by habit memory and its bodily mechanisms produces the concrete memory efficient for action. We have studied Bergson's theory in sections; we must now attempt a conspect. Can we piece the parts together? Pure perception, spontaneous memory, voluntary memory, h...ow do they combine in the concrete act of perception ? Does the theory throw any light upon the familiar facts of sight, hearing, smell, touch and taste? Let us take a concrete case of visual perception. I turn my eyes to the clock yonder. The dial connects with the retina. Electrons are liberated; the disturbance of the optic nerve is transmitted to the cerebrum and thence redirected to other parts of the body. Actions or nascent actions are set up. There is the physical substrate of vision, the pure perception.
