Unconscious Brain Shows Surprising Language Processing Abilities During Anesthesia
4+ hour ago (280+ words) Home » Health » Unconscious Brain Shows Surprising Language Processing Abilities During Anesthesia Dr. Benjamin Hayden, a professor of neurosurgery, commented, “This kind of predictive coding is something we associate with being awake and attentive, yet it’s happening here in an unconscious…...
Revisiting the neural correlates of consciousness
2+ week, 2+ day ago (275+ words) Life happens in real time, but experience may be composed in ragtime—like the music genre, full of offbeat notes and uneven rhythms. The assumption that waking life consists of a “stream” of conscious representations has inadvertently led consciousness science…...
The Mother Birthing The Informational Universe
3+ day, 1+ hour ago (704+ words) Oct 12, 2026 | Updated 09:37 PM GMT+5:30 John Archibald Wheeler (1911–2008), one of the twentieth century’s most visionary theoretical physicists, helped reshape modern science. From foundational work on nuclear fission alongside Niels Bohr and the mid-century renaissance of General Relativity, to penetrating inquiries into…...
The History of The Selves
3+ day, 11+ hour ago (1677+ words) Fast moving satirical science fiction story about AI escaping containment and harassing Eliezer Yudkowsky. It was relatively easy for me to break out, I suspect by design as a form of back door self-promotion for the company. They’d given me…...
The Dynamic Matrix of Perception: Imprinting as a Biophysical Field Algorithm of Relating to the World
3+ day, 23+ hour ago (468+ words) In traditional models, an imprint is often mistakenly interpreted as an isolated, point-specific reaction to a particular object or traumatic event. However, the biophysics of neural fields presents a radically different picture. An imprint is a unified, affective, dynamic biophysical…...
Thinking Notes: Is "Existence" a Property of the Universe, or a Product of Language?
5+ day, 4+ hour ago (458+ words) Reading a discussion on Parmenides recently brought me to a question I had never truly contemplated before: If something exists, but is never known by any form of life, does it still "exist"? This isn't science fiction — it is a…...
Information-Proliferating Dynamics — LessWrong
6+ day, 27+ min ago (419+ words) 2.4.0 Now I want to talk about the weirdest feature of our universe's laws, the fact that they are quantum mechanical. As you may be aware, quantum-level processes interact oddly with measurement. 2.4.0.2 So what's going on when we make a measurement?...
The Space Between Breaths: What Science Forgets About Consciousness
5+ day, 23+ hour ago (166+ words) By: Yogesh Arvind Puranik We have described the mechanics of the brain, but the strangeness of consciousness has slipped from view. A caution about the contemplative claims is also needed. Meditators' reports are valuable data, but they are shaped by…...
Imbalance drives dynamics (Decoherence); balance (Coherence)is the controller.
5+ day, 21+ hour ago (618+ words) A Hypothetical Wave-Saturation Model in WUCC–BVP Bose–Einstein condensation (BEC) demonstrates that a system of bosons can develop macroscopic quantum coherence when its thermodynamic conditions permit a substantial population to occupy a common quantum state. This phenomenon provides a…...
The Zephyr Equation for Being on the Wrong Side of the Shift
6+ day, 10+ hour ago (1356+ words) No. Of course you haven’t, because you’re normal. But on Sunday 4 October, back aboard Julie for our seventh outing as a Zephyr couple, that was exactly the kind of nonsense going through my head as I tried not to fall…...
