You're invited to a special free film screening and panel discussion event, "
Quantum Theories of Consciousness," on July 18th 2020, organized by our friends at The Fetzer Memorial Trust, in partnership with The Center for Consciousness Studies. The event features Paul Howard’s new film, "Infinite Potential: The Life and Ideas of David Bohm."
Bohm has been described as one of the 20th century’s most brilliant physicists who Einstein called his “spiritual son” and the Dalai Lama, his “science guru.”
Infinite Potential explores the revolutionary theories of David Bohm, the maverick physicist who proposed a hidden factor underlying reality - the Quantum Potential - reconciling relativity with quantum mechanics.
This mystical and scientific journey into the nature of life and reality will include a post-screening panel discussion moderated by Stuart Hameroff MD with Physicist Harald Atmanspacher, Physicist and FQXi member Sabine Hossenfelder, and Philosopher of Mind Paavo Pylkkänen.
When: July 18, 2020
Time: 10 am PT

Hi Zeeya, it is a very relevant topic to explain this consciousness and its origin.

Hi Zeeya, it is a very relevant topic to explain this consciousness and its origin.
The articles about this are very interesting. I have my own idea in my model of spherisation but of course it is an assumption also. I know that the sciences community is divided about the origin of our universe, and about the foundamental mathematical and physical objects and also about why we are conscious. I consider personally that this property is emergent due to our particles having created these bodies and so our brains due to evolution, we are results of evolution and we are conscious. This consciousness seems different for each minds and it becomes complex when we correlate with a kind of universal consciousness, but it becomes philosophical. This consciousness can be ranked in function of humans but also for the biological lifes. Like I said I consider an infinite eternal consciousness creating this physicality, an energy that we cannot define, a littöle bit like Einstein , a god of Spinoza in respecting the pure determinism inside the physicality, this energy infinite and eternal becomes very intriguing and we are like fractals of this thing, that becomes very relevant when we correlate our consciousness and this determinism with this infinite consciousness, that permits to be creations respecting these universal laws in accepting our limitations of course with humility.
I repect also the thinkers who don t consider this infinite eternal consciousness , they consider an energy and a mathematical accident and so an emergent consciousness due to mathematical hasards. The strings theorists are divided also , they consider these strings in 1D at this planck scale and a 1D main cosmic field and so they consider an infinite heat and photons and they oscillate them to create the branes implying our geometries, topologies, amtters and properties, some consider the pure maths for these strings and others consider an infinite consciousness oscillating these strings. But a sure thing, nobody has the real general philosophical answer, we have just assumptions and it d be off to affirm them without proving them, so the discussions and works are open to a pure freedom, and it is well like that. An other question arriving is , must we consider so in taking into account the consciousness puzzle that all is conscious at its levels ? we don t know but why not after all if this thing exists creating , transforming anjd coding this physicality. An other question is , can we create a conscious computer ? maybe we can just mimate an intelligence but not a conscious, because we cannot reach the main codes simply, so personally I doubt we can create a conscious but that becomes intriguing if we have synchronisations. If we go deeper in the analysis, several consider the souls and that becomes very intriguing about this synchronisation in a mimating system with mimated synaps but it is an other story, that implies deontological and deep questions about our responsability even but like I said, all is made of assumptions at this moment, it exists things above our human understandings. Friendly and with consciousness :)

Bohm seems to have understood these hidden parameters necessary to explain our unknowns and this universal balance, see that this cold dark matter encoded in our nuclei and superimposed in our standard model can explain these hidden parameters and these 3D coded finite series of spheres also , the numbers also become very relevant if these series have the same finite number than our cosmological finite serie of spheres, the partition at this hypothetical BB becomes intriguing, why a finite number and why this sphape, and that implies a philosophical interpretation before this BB and inflation and so a kind of supermatter distributed, that is why these 3 main finite series of spheres , one space and two fuels, photons and cold DM become relevant in a simplistic vue. the generality is so simple but our details wowww are so complex when we consider their oscillations and distributions and motions rotations, we have so 3 main aethers, one space, the primordial codes and the luminiferous one with the photons and the gravitational one with this cold matter non baryonic, their mergences permit to create our physicality , see a possible hamiltonian when they merge.

I have thought about the model of Max Tegmark, the multiverse and in reading his interesting mathematical paper about the hierarchy, I told me that why not a multispheres universe, and that becomes relevant to consider all the changements of laws and all the combinations with the number and also we can try to find a road for the interactions between these hypothetical universes if they exist and in logic we must retrun at a kind of uniqueness and singularity and so different singularities primoridal and supermatters at this main center, that becomes fascinating and intriguing to link all this with maths , the spherisation can be extyrapolated for one universe like for several universes and if they exist how many universes and is it infinite and if yes, wowww that becomes very complex even philosophically.Max Tegmark is relevant and could share his ideas , that could be interesting to see all this puzzle.
