The Consciousness Revolution in Science
Jim Beichler ASCSI/SFF Conference Presentation 6 October 2018 The Consciousness Revolution in Science The inner workings of the primal cosmic mish-mash which yields our senses of spirit, consciousness and our interpretations of nature/physics James E. Beichler Abstract: It is no coincidence that the many theoretical physicists are ‘suggesting’ that our final physical reality could be time, bits, a hologram, a computer program, information, 1s and 0s, mathematics, or some other intangible quantity while many consciousness scientists and philosophers suggest that human consciousness might be time, bits, a hologram, a computer program, information, 1s and 0s, mathematics, or some other intangible quality. They are making these ridiculous claims independent of each other because each group is facing their own inabilities to move forward, and they are both grasping at straws, in this case the same straws. They are both facing conundrums of thought and do not realize that they are confusing the advance of science rather than advancing science. In the meantime, neuroscientists, technicians and engineers are developing machines that read peoples’ minds and developing brain/machine interfaces and advanced computer AI that seems to render the questions regarding human consciousness and spirituality either even more important or completely irrelevant. This is the mish-mash that is the present state of science, but a revolution, not only in physics and science, but in human thought and evolution itself, that will change all of this is on the offing.
