Consider TDVP (Triadic Distinction Vortical Paradigm) from Ed Close (erclosetphysics.com) and Vernon Neppe (vernonneppe.org), based on the work of George Spencer Brown, who invented the Calculus of Indications which encapsulates boolean logic but does so in a profoundly elegant visual grammar. One that dramatically shortens calculation visually.
Distinction: to distinguish anything from anything else.
Consciousness: the distinction of self from other. Also has further distinctions of inside the self and the other organized into patterns, and distinctions drawn for negative entropy and spiritual evolution, the basis of all change.
Distinctions have three parts, that which is distinguished, that from which it is distinguished, and the consciousness drawing the distinction. This has reality differntiation along the lines of the Perceptual, Conceptual and Existential, and distinctions themselves have variables of Intent, Content and Extent.
Imagine a idealist, unified monism 9-D model of reality that has three main prongs. Other unstable particles teased into existence temporarily by LHC are not very useful whereas normalization based on the characteristics of the free electron when it comes to Space/Time/Consciousness are relevant.
For symbolic representation of Extent: this is Space that has three dimensions and is represented using integers. And then there is Time, which are image events of cause and effect on a timeline, that are represented like a plane, a volume, or that of more other people, and this represented with imaginary numbers. And then there is Consciousness-awareness, complex numbers, the awareness of being, or the distinction of Self from Other as spiritual awareness or life trace, and it too is a plane, a volume, and that of more other people.
For the symmetric resonance of Content we have Mass (subatomic, atomic and the universe), Energy (photonic, electric, magnetic) and also Consciousness-meaningfulness (individual, group and cosmic) aka gimmel, the third form of reality which is not mass or energy.
Primary Consciousness is one thing, but then gimmel, the organizer, is second and mass/energy is third.
For Intent or meaningful information: existential, conceptual and imaginary.
In this model we are all moving towards experiences like what is termed Cosmic Consciousness (omnipresence) in Yoga, especially along the lines of Kriya Yoga as brought forward into the West by Yogananda. Anyway, perhaps a start towards mathematizing consciousness that is compatible with ancient wisdom and modern mathematics.
