Mediated Experience

created by Ahab

Mediated experience is a psychological/philosophical term. Everyone uses filters in their lives to sort things out, such as expectation or routine. Through these filters daily life is easier to take. If a poor man has the expectation that life will improve, then the bleakness of his current situation can be mitigated. Unmediated experience, or the real reality disputes this, but honestly, what would life be like if we couldn't dream?
