I define consciousness as “the inflection of the potential of existential being.” As my original comment suggests, I claim consciousness as the echo chamber of the quantum domain.
Before you call it “quantum magic” understand that the “potential of existence” is the foundation of existential reality and we are “just inflecting” upon this through the electrochemical biotechnology of our brains.
I propose all life and living systems are “of consciousness” however primitive, and memory, temporal awareness, even sense of self are holographic renderings within this domain.
- estearum 3mo agoGood luck drawing a line between life/living systems and otherwise. The panpsychist answer is (unfortunately) the only one that even remotely passes the sniff test.
- d00d0ff000 3mo agoNo need. In another comment I mentioned a stone has dormant potential of consciousness, and life systems merely animate it. Someone else posted a decent link to the relationship of “holographic” memory and consciousness. I do not speak with that as my source though it is a relevant idea.
