  2. Binding problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binding_problem

    However, these do not generally include physical interpretations. Whitehead [40] proposed a fundamental ontological basis for a relation consistent with James's idea of co-consciousness, in which many causal elements are co-available or "compresent" in a single event or "occasion" that constitutes a unified experience. Whitehead did not give ...

  3. Quantum mind - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantum_mind

    The quantum mind or quantum consciousness is a group of hypotheses proposing that local physical laws and interactions from classical mechanics or connections between neurons alone cannot explain consciousness, [1] positing instead that quantum-mechanical phenomena, such as entanglement and superposition that cause nonlocalized quantum effects, interacting in smaller features of the brain than ...

  4. Orchestrated objective reduction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orchestrated_objective...

    Partially in response to Gödel's argument, the Penrose–Lucas argument leaves the question of the physical basis of non-computable behaviour open. Most physical laws are computable, and thus algorithmic. However, Penrose determined that wave function collapse was a prime candidate for a non-computable process.

  5. A Unified Theory of Consciousness Could Be on the Cusp - AOL

    After all, there‘s still an enormous amount we don’t know about consciousness or the physical structures of the brain. At the end of the day (or century!), just one theory will prove to be ...

  6. Hard problem of consciousness - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hard_problem_of_consciousness

    The difficulty is as follows: even if consciousness is physical, it is not clear which physical states correspond to which conscious states. The bridges between the two levels of description will be contingent, rather than necessary. This is significant because in most contexts, relating two scientific levels of descriptions (such as physics ...

  7. Electromagnetic theories of consciousness - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromagnetic_theories...

    The field theories of consciousness do not appear to have been as widely discussed as other quantum consciousness theories, such as those of Penrose, Stapp or Bohm. [18] However, David Chalmers [19] argues against quantum consciousness. He instead discusses how quantum mechanics may relate to dualistic consciousness. [20]

  8. Von Neumann–Wigner interpretation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Von_Neumann–Wigner...

    It has been argued that "[consciousness causes collapse] does not allow sensible discussion of Big Bang cosmology or biological evolution". [5] For example, Roger Penrose remarked: "[T]he evolution of conscious life on this planet is due to appropriate mutations having taken place at various times. These, presumably, are quantum events, so they ...

  9. Emergentism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emergentism

    Emergentism is the belief in emergence, particularly as it involves consciousness and the philosophy of mind.A property of a system is said to be emergent if it is a new outcome of some other properties of the system and their interaction, while it is itself different from them. [1]
