Low and behold the number posted on your video matches my formula exactly. What gives? The formula uses the collective unconscious constant..mod37=.891891.... 10^((144/37)-7)=7.79636...*10^-7=x, 10^-7=erg. The formula uses the special number 864.

Brain is so cool!

Ok Dr. Greene! I am driven to tears by the awesomeness of this! Can I make a comment: Maybe consciousness comes from our senses yet the interpretation of those senses, is intelligence. And morality, comes from the senses, in what hurts us and does not hurt us. Fear comes from what hurts us. Is there an electron charge to the feeling of hurtness? Or is the feeling of hurtness, a quantum mechanics response of one impulse which effects another entity, which is our senses in our body? We thus apply those feelings of safety on a broader scale in society. This is morality. And, in time, for example, a child of 2, does not cross over, a plate of glass at a high level. The child's innate depth perception, is to keep the child safe. But with interpretation, and experiences over time and growth, we interpret that piece of glass from our ability to perceive safety, and interpret that information through reasoning. So what are the basic elements in morality: safety and not safety? So if the number 5 is safe to me, then its moral, its a moral entity. Its just all our perceptions and interpretations. Is there a mathematical model to the colour brown of the bark of a tree? Or a mathematical model to the concept of perception? The colour brown is a perception. I dont understand the discussion on morality, without a neuropsychologist on your panel.

Thank you for this most inspiring conversation, which made me want to think. Since I went ahead and wrote some of my thoughts down, I decided to share what I wrote. The way I see it is: there cannot be a count without a counter. And “counting” is the starting point of mathematics, in my view. Put differently: I cannot see counting without a consciousness of some sort. Between a rock which does not itself count, yet still follows a geometric path around the sun within its gravitational field, and us humans, there is a threshold to consciousness which, I believe to be marked by the ability to count. Our intelligence/consciousness as humans has brought us to the point where we keep on projecting our “counting” onto the universe in attempts of grogging it. With the help of mathematics ( counting ), we were and are able to model aspects of the universe evermore closely, yet not fully. Take the Gregorian Calendar for example, which has to deal with 365 earth rotations and a fraction around the sun, mapping this on a duodecimal and base seven system in turn… what a mess! While the truth of the matter is that the earth follows a helical path around the sun as it move around the galactic center, where our galaxy is moving within the local group, and so on and so forth. In the end all what we achieved are approximations, arrived at through models which we have come up with through conciseness observation and iteration. If one would submit to the concept that the universe is ruled by qualities rather than quantities, one might have a better chance at describing the universe more fully. The universe is innocent of our interpretation of it. As long as we are counted out of the universe, that is. And yet, we emerged from the universe with consciousness and are on our way of becoming evermore conscious of where we live. P.S.: I like the production of this video.

You folks put together the most compelling environment with graphics folded seamlessly into the intellect of the discussion. The panel was fantastic! At some points I wanted to slap either David or Max. Loved it! Congrats, again, Dr. Greene, on another touchdown.

Not all knowing requires logic. Intuition is every bit as valid when it comes to knowing something. Not proving it to other people, which is surely secondary in importance, but knowing. If someone is approaching me and I get a weird feeling and know something isn’t right about them, no logical steps were involved in knowing this. There isn’t time for logical analysis, forming a hypothesis, testing a theory. Oops! I’m dead. We CAN know things without being able to prove them. Shall I prove that? I don’t have to. Like I said, knowing is primary, proving secondary. And besides, I’m just some dude on the internet (presumably) that has an opinion. I did not just state that all hunches are correct. The most important aspect of being a mathematician is not logic, but creativity. Breakthroughs don’t usually happen until you give up. You might remember someone’s name, for example, only after you stop trying to think of it. In our culture, of course, we value logic and dismiss intuition as “women’s intuition”. Humans don’t make logical decisions. Oh, we can justify our decisions alright, but every decision we ever make is an emotional decision. There may be a light dusting of logic for color, but come on, primate. Who you trying to fool? I am you. 🙂

Does the following quantum model agree with the Spinor Theory of Roger Penrose? Quantum Entangled Twisted Tubules: "A theory that you can't explain to a bartender is probably no damn good." Ernest Rutherford When we draw a sine wave on a blackboard, we are representing spatial curvature. Does a photon transfer spatial curvature from one location to another? Wrap a piece of wire around a pencil and it can produce a 3D coil of wire, much like a spring. When viewed from the side it can look like a two-dimensional sine wave. You could coil the wire with either a right-hand twist, or with a left-hand twist. Could Planck's Constant be proportional to the twist cycles. A photon with a higher frequency has more energy. (More spatial curvature). What if gluons are actually made up of these twisted tubes which become entangled with other tubes to produce quarks. (In the same way twisted electrical extension cords can become entangled.) Therefore, the gluons are actually a part of the quarks. Mesons are made up of two entangled tubes (Quarks/Gluons), while protons and neutrons would be made up of three entangled tubes. (Quarks/Gluons) The "Color Force" would be related to the XYZ coordinates (orientation) of entanglement. "Asymptotic Freedom", and "flux tubes" make sense based on this concept. Neutrinos would be made up of a twisted torus (like a twisted donut) within this model. Gravity is a result of a very small curvature imbalance within atoms. (This is why the force of gravity is so small.) Instead of attempting to explain matter as "particles", this concept attempts to explain matter more in the manner of our current understanding of the space-time curvature of gravity. If an electron has qualities of both a particle and a wave, it cannot be either one. It must be something else. Therefore, a "particle" is actually a structure which stores spatial curvature. Can an electron-positron pair (which are made up of opposite directions of twist) annihilate each other by unwinding into each other producing Gamma Ray photons. Does an electron travel through space like a threaded nut traveling down a threaded rod, with each twist cycle proportional to Planck’s Constant? Does it wind up on one end, while unwinding on the other end? Is this related to the Higgs field? Does this help explain the strange ½ spin of many subatomic particles? Does the 720 degree rotation of a 1/2 spin particle require at least one extra dimension? Alpha decay occurs when the two protons and two neutrons (which are bound together by entangled tubes), become un-entangled from the rest of the nucleons . Beta decay occurs when the tube of a down quark/gluon in a neutron becomes overtwisted and breaks producing a twisted torus (neutrino) and an up quark, and the ejected electron. The phenomenon of Supercoiling involving twist and writhe cycles may reveal how overtwisted quarks can produce these new particles. The conversion of twists into writhes, and vice-versa, is an interesting process. Gamma photons are produced when a tube unwinds producing electromagnetic waves. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Within this model a black hole could represent a quantum of gravity, because it is one cycle of spatial gravitational curvature. Therefore, instead of a graviton being a subatomic particle it could be considered to be a black hole. The overall gravitational attraction would be caused by a very tiny curvature imbalance within atoms. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> In this model Alpha equals the compactification ratio within the twistor cone. 1/137 1= Hypertubule diameter at 4D interface 137= Cone’s larger end diameter at 3D interface A Hypertubule gets longer or shorter as twisting occurs. 720 degrees per twist cycle. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> How many neutrinos are left over from the Big Bang? They have a small mass, but they could be very large in number. Could this help explain Dark Matter?

THIS is the inward facing intuition for Banach-Tarski. Also fusion as a math model IN US. I did it in the heat map of the Earth as well. I will do the standard model over right in math, but it ain't what you think. With the Observer Effect mathematically corrected, now what you are observing matters. EVERYTHING is best described as a time stamped decay-accretion of radiation packets, hard light, into EM, and into solids, which are themselves a matter of decay from perfection with time. e(c), sq2 and Pi, and WITH coherence to "irrational" algorithmic expansion. The solution is in Fibonacci palindromes in the decimals. e(c) = .0577*21, sq2 = 1.414*21, Pi = 3,141. . . .*--211 at the 95th decimal place.

Nice talk! As a software engineer I often see a similarity between consciousness and a computer when it's turned on. In a computer there is a flow of electricity that makes it "alive" - processing information, reacting to different inputs, storing or retrieving data, all according to an existing program. The brain can be seen as a computer with a memory, inputs and a program (that is being constantly developed during our life). Then consciousness is when some kind of energy flows through the brain, directed by the program and inputs (senses), creating chemical impulses when passing through specific memories and those impulses are in a loop affecting the flow of the energy and directing it further. I would agree with miss Jonas, if we want to mathematically describe consciousness, we first need to understand what exactly do we want to describe. Math can describe things that can be quantified. How do we quantify consciousness?

No. I don't think my input would be relevant to you or others. Nevertheless, I do believe it could. I see a space here and when I'm compelled to write then, so I do, the rest, is up to each one's mind and heart. This is as well, with all due respect: You are so correct when you relate the creation and functions of a computer device, with the creation and function of mankind. To me, the mystery resides in the way we set our minds. Us humans, tend to focus in the form of things, thus creating abstractness in everything we think we cannot understand, we need to understand in order to do. Instead of focusing on the function of things, to do in order to understand thus, we can relate to the concreteness of reality. We want to own it all...but, in reality, we do not own nothing, but the power of decision. If you think abt it "Ready or not, some day it will all come to an end. There will be no more sunrises, no minutes, hours, or days. All the things you collected, whether treasured or forgotten, will pass to someone else." Having said aaaall that, conscience comes from con-with / science- knowledge. How much or many consciousness? Or, to quantify it...just remember knowledge and wisdom are not the same thing, wisdom is how knowledge is applied. 8? 9? 100000000? What will give you understanding is not the quantity, but the quality. We were all conceived with knowledge. Conscious beings. What people lack is God, and men can go on, and on, and on, but will never find the answers, without God. Computers can work without its creator being present, but can never work without a source of electricity, without a man manipulating its buttons and a program with instructions. Computers are automatons. What would be the antonym of automaton? Person, human...the difference? We cannot create freedom, liberty, free will, we just exercise it... but we don't own it, it was given to us. I'm not the wisest woman alive, but I know one thing, and that is, that we own nothing. 😁 We were Created. Our con-science is just a bit of His knowledge implanted in us. We were turned on, and we will be turned off. That much, is for sure. God, the Creator, is outside of His Creation, He is above it, beyond it, in it, through it, remains unaffected.. Same way the creator of today's computers, is not inside the monitor... Our bodies are His devices, and His Word, is our instructive. Our body will perish, but our con-science won't.

It's not at all surprising when you realize the fact that consciousness happens as a result of the most complex structure we know about: The brain. You could just as well say life "doesn't exist at all" in physics, yet now we know it's a just a very high level emergent phenomenon, and the fact it doesn't *appear* in physics is a mere consequence of the fact that physics is focused on the lowest hierarchical levels of complexity. Life's lack of appearance within physics was never a sufficient reason to say it doesn't "exist" within it, it certainly does in a sense, since it arises from it. Now consciousness, that's on an even higher level than life, why would you expect to see it appear in physics? And likewise, its lack of appearance is most definitely not a proof that it can't arise from it, as your comment seems to imply. -Additional notes: I'm also curious as to why you think you can assert that it's "irrelevant to cause and effect", because everything points to the fact that it certainly is. When you're driving, if your attention is on your phone, and what's in front of the road is in your peripheral vision yet you're not conscious of it, the "cause and effect relevance" is pretty damn real. Without consciousness, the best we can do is unconscious reflexes, yet that clearly isn't sufficient for most of the dangers we face, most particularly middle and long term ones. You could assert that a "zombie (unconscious)" AI could conceivably calculate and have the same behavior as a human, but in fact there's no reason to think it could do it as effectively and adaptively. In fact, the most complex and adaptive AI models are converging towards neural networks that mimic the brain neural networks, and it's quite conceivable that if we actually do create a general AI, that's as effective as a human brain in terms of the volume/energy/mass it requires, it *also* will have consciousness. Hence the practical benefits for behavior of consciousness also make it very relevant to cause and effect. Not only that, but "the cause and effect relevance" in the other direction is already well established. In the sense that if you're given an anesthetic, your consciousness disappears, we're even starting to have better and better knowledge of exactly what kind of neural firings lead to someone being conscious or not. Basically, there's a million different ways, in both direction, in which consciousness is causally related to everything else, so it very much puzzles me that you'd make such an out of the blue assumption that all of a sudden it isn't.

@@titchman9097 Thank you haha! And I very much agree with your beautiful assessment. Consciousness amplifies intelligence to a higher level, a computer program might be able to recognize a face as well as a human, but its lack of awareness of it does translate to a lower intelligence in a real sense. The awareness of a face creates an emergent additional information that the brain can then try and connect with other information in the form of unconscious or conscious thoughts. Its resemblances to certain geographical shapes, maybe the facial expression reminds you of a past painful experience, or some other creative thoughts, etc. It generates a dynamic of information processing centered on the object of awareness, which adds an additional dynamic in terms of which next object will take place at the center of awareness. You see a tree and think of how green it looks and suddenly realize you didn't water your plant this morning, allowing you to link seemingly random things together. On the other hand, an unaware computer program would only generate a single bit of information: face or not, tree or not, green or not. The ability to generate additional information and link it with past information from and centered around one current piece of information requires to "know" what the current information is, and ideally not only know it but have a concept and a sens of what it is, hence be aware of it. I don't how exactly it does arise, but awareness seems to me an inevitable and crucial part of an adaptive information processing system, so it makes all the sense in the world that evolution would naturally develop it if it's possible.

Thank you for another fascinating discussion about physics and reality. Your WSF is one of my favorite channels. In this one, I kept thinking of the computer science guy 'Donald Hoffman' and his view that our shared sense of reality is analogous to a user interface similar to the reality (mind set) that has developed in regards to our computers. Would he be taking the position that math is a tool that allows minute distinctions and keeps building on itself? It seems a large part of human nature is to 'divide and conquer'. We find ways to do that, and the development of a system that includes formalizing its successful experiences so they can be applied to future problems in a systematic and flexible way is that. I love math and it is so nicely abstract and clean you can project it upon anything you want. That pure math discoveries were later found to apply to things that actually exist in our physical world is enchanting. Isn't math really one of our primary interfaces between abstract mental principles and the concrete physical world we are working within? Scientists and philosophers postulate and test out their ideas in the physical world, and math is the language that has developed to solve many of our infinite problems. And On the subject of consciousness; a guy named Mark Solms (Psychiatrist and Neuropsychologist from Cape Town, South Africa) has written a book called 'the Hidden Spring' and he nicely explains a theory on its development within humans, but theoretically also possible within any system that has a few particular characteristics. The 'Markov blanket', which is effectively like a little statistical sac your living within that is your immediate contact with the exterior reality, (think Hoffmans explanation of our functioning model of reality is similar to a statistical sac), and the 'Periaqueductal Grey' an area within the brain where the Lateral Geniculate Nucleus, the Occipital Cortex and the Superior Colliculi all share interactions, that can have many differing outcomes. Kind of a 'decision point'. It isn't a simple theory and I can't do it justice, but when he put it all together , his mind was changed regarding the question of whether Artificial Intelligence was capable of achieving consciousness. He had previously thought 'Not". He is postulating 'consciousness' as an organic biologic development , that will likely be synthesized . This new guy 'David Albert' is pretty interesting. Your programs are ALWAYS interesting. You do a wonderful job introducing a controversy and provide enough background material to ease listeners into the discussion that follows. Thank you for sharing and sparking so many great ideas.

This suggests that anything without a brain, anything that can't "think", has no consciousness, so trees, flowers, particles... "It is a quality which emerges from complex self reflective thinking that is the product of eons of evolution" suggests that eons of evolution ago, people with the exact same physiological brains as we do today, had no or at least less consciousness than we do. Is it really complex self reflective thinking that one implements in order to be aware of, to be conscious of, let's say, ones own fart?

Agreed, I think the "high level information processing" part is particularly important, and in some sense is why I'm not convinced that simply increasing the number of neurons an artificial neural network has will replicate the human experience of consciousness. The human experience is part of our brain structure and how it evolved. The "high level information processing" section, being the frontal lobe, evolved _last._ This means our brains have a sort of "sectionality" to it (called "functional specialization"). It doesn't interpret information everywhere at once, but parts of our brains are dedicated to processing visual input, to processing tactile input, to processing auditory input, etc, and all these things are processed by our primitive brain _subconsciously._ After this subconscious processing is done, only _then_ does this information stream to the frontal lobe for high level information processing. I think this is why we experience qualia as such a magical and mysterious thing. Because were are completely unconscious of how our brain actually produced the image that we experience. The consciousness is not the _entire_ brain but only the frontal lobe with the high level information processing, and so it receives information from lower level processing which it has no information on how it was actually processed. There feels like there is a huge disconnection between the experience of green in our consciousness and green in reality. Because we don't experience how our brain actually produced that. It makes consciousness feel magical and disconnected, but there is a connection, we're just unaware of it. Hence, that's why I say simply scaling up the number of neurons might not replicate human consciousness. If the AI does not have this sort of "sectionality" in its brain that humans have evolved, then it might be conscious of how it processes its sensory inputs. If it is conscious of how it processes these, then it would likely not experience qualia, and would not find consciousness to be so mystical. Although, a side point, there is a paper currently in preprint (not yet peer reviewed) published literally last month that argues for evidence that the sectionality of the brain actually arises spontaneously as a part of neural network optimization, demonstrated through artificial neural networks. If this paper is true, then the experience of qualia might arise spontaneously as well with sufficient intelligence. But, again, this is still in preprint, but it's interesting nonetheless.

An important question that I have been curious about for the last couple of years. This was an excellent presentation of this complex topic. I hope you will do another program on it and that you might also consider offering it as a course or at least posting some suggested readings so we could continue our learning. I think Mathematics is discovered rather than invented. The things we have learned through mathematical exploration describes real objects and dynamic interactions. Max Tegmark is right that we are living in a mathematical structure; we are a small part of something bigger but how does one describe that structure. The math we have discovered thus far is also our tool to continue to discover even more about our universe. What is that process of discovery? How is it that some people can perceive the hidden mathematics and that other people cannot? We will eventually discover even more advanced math that will be necessary to continue our exploration and understanding.

You are right it is more so a pure discovery, like we do not so much invent (from nothing anyway not) as we as mankind do discover how a stone being cut is useful as a knife (tool). Same as we invented language by giving us acoustical signals to express a certain motivation or aim. It's more like language, being developed to express quantitative relationships between objects of any kind. Or geometry relations being translated into algebraic terms. But maths is eternal like ideas, they do not need time. This extra dimension is already becoming transcendent and imaginary numbers are needed to describe complex equations for description of processes that include "time". Exactly as you assume that imagination is needed for finding new "qualitative" beyond the purely quantitative relations. Like Einstein did his ""thought experiments" to find new relations between mass, energy, time, space, forces and topological structures (including Minkowski instead of Riemann or Euklidian geometry as base). Hidden structures are also hidden dimensions of reality therefore another maths or logic instead of the atistotelean (yes/no) duality is needed to unlock other dimensions like the fifth ot 6th dimension to explain "qualities" like consciousness and life (as such) that our maths of today cannot describe (!) or why there is apparently a teleological development of the cosmos and world we live in. We are not machines nor just ultra complex computer androids or whatever transhumanistic fiction is "inventing" we are something else and live in a world with laws beyond our mathematical language can describe! But that needs and involves a more complex and multidimensional logic than our today's geometry and math. Aliens would demonstrate it to us if we could listen or grasp it without dieing from fear before as we die of fear from a tiny virus!

I think consciousness is pattern identification. Sometimes, there are loose connections among neurons that discover new creative patterns that brain sees "aha! It makes sense." For example, at night during REM sleep, brain runs multiple simulations randomly that connect the dots. Modern math is a math of patterns like coding. String theory is awesome! With high energy, strings vibrate to the point of massless, and the knots of strings form definitive packs of energy. If strings stop vibrate, these packs of energy exert the feeling of mass, and they are called particles.

These are like in a dream, and the products are not real until we use our hands to move the Lego or to build the building. In order to successfully move all the same color squares to the same plan or to make a stable building, we have to use the laws of the nature that govern the Lego ( the way the Lego cubes are kept together and move together) or that govern the building ( the forces of gravity, earthquake, and winds).

I see each neuron as similar to a computer processor which can connect to up to 10,000 other neurons and only fires after it receives certain inputs at certain levels from some of these connections. So, I think we're pretty far from a conscious computer. I think (not sure) that current supercomputers have only about 700,000 processors max and the number of connections to each processor is far less than 10,000. I don't think computer memory (bytes) compares at all to brain function. Also, you're right that brains can create new connections or strengthen connections so they grow and dynamically change.

I wanted to use this forum to announce a pretty simple scientific fact which has alluded mankind for it's entire existence. I have always heard and read in scientific discussions that mathematics is nature's language and that mathematics describe in detail the nature of our universe. Well here it goes:. In nature there is no perfect circle. In fact the perfect circle is a man made contrivance. In nature all circular, spherical, and ovular shapes are either in an ascending or descending orbit or are manifesting or decaying and technically will never reach it's starting point which is necessary in order to be considered a perfect circle. In closing, nature's language would not provide a formula to find the area of something that does not exist. For the π proponents, I'm afraid to say, you may never find the end of it for it does not exist. Thank you for your time.

Consciousness and reality and things beyond i am ready to explore... Thanks for this amazing discussion event

I think mathematics is just the language humanity uses to define the nature of the world around us from an individual and collective perception.

The graphics and editing on this are fantastic

Great selection of panel and discussion. A few days ago I saw a picture of an elephant with a lion cub on its trunk and the cubs mother was walking beside the elephant and apparently the cub was too weak to walk to the watering hole so when the elephant realized this it carried it to go drink water. well I said this in trying to find out how math's apparently explain everything can explain that to add to math's not being able to figure out the formula of consciousness

And how would you explain it with gluons, quarks and electrons? All of which are themselves frequency densities in fields... Explaining big things with small things is always difficult. Complexity is difficult. But it's still made from smaller parts.

This is really a great discussion to everyone on earth and i really hope everyone can partake in getting to know that what is behind and beyond mathematics is magnificent. Thank you everyone what is happening now and ever might be a significant key to the new world.

This was an absolutely captivating discussion. I enjoyed it thoroughly

What happens when math breaks down at the singularity or the plank length? At those points(sic) there's no more math, but some kind of reality remains. And if math is discovered and not a purely human construct, there must be a reality beyond that doesn't require math.

Mathematics does not break at Planck length. Our models do. There need not be any "reality" at Planck length. Stay humble to win.

What happens when the science is incorrect or incomplete? You’d be too dumb too get if the solutions were correct and get pp’d on by the government. "The numbers say we have to cut your wages and make you move out of your moms basement into a production line and house you in a Tesla tin shed! Yay!

Buenas noches, gracias por la forma de presentar "la clase". La humanidad ha tomado a las matemáticas cómo una herramienta indispensable, es nuestra mejor regla y señalador, estoy seguro de que la naturaleza terrenal también sensa las posibilidades; por ejemplo, los individuos dentro de una colonia de avispas están atados al ambiente, el esfuerzo que debe logar cada individuo para trascender en un esfuerzo colectivo en el crecimiento de la colonia y encontrar cada vez mejores probabilidades armoniosas. Pero quedan muchas preguntas, ¿cuál es la pregunta más importante que debe formular y hacer el deber de responder la humanidad?, ¿cuál será el destino de las diferentes formas de vida, ...?, gracias.

Love the science, and I think reality is a form of time and existence, where time is the moment and the existence …, is the discovery in thought or where is presents itself, so mathematics is a short hand to which we use to understand the invisibility and therefore becomes reality. The descriptive symbolic of mathematics will always change when we discover the parts reality that is constant, only the discovery of the information in reality changes or revealed that are described in mathematic. Hope i made sense, thank you Brian.

4:10 that experiment can easily be deceptive because before doing the experiment you assume earth is a ball. Yes the math is correct, but using the same formula you can also conclude the earth is flat with a small local sun. We don’t live in a math equation, we live in the real world. And when you assume something like a ball, you can make it look like a ball.

33:19 I also see what Greene is getting at. It does make mathematics appear like a translation tool, akin to transcription, that allows for compatibility between how the brain processes and understands things and how the universe actually works.

I would check out the video of Brian and Max that came out recently. They dive deeper into this discussion and Brian pushes back on Max’s opinion a little more. It was a satisfying follow up to this discussion and it sharpened their points on the subject a little more. Both of them are great.

First time ive really thought about this and glad Max was there to give his analysis, i believe it is a tool which great minds over the millenia have developed to be able to explain our physical world. Glad they did ,it is applied to our development on a physical level , which is essential for our development , to give an example Elon and his many teams use it to exceed even NASA's speed of development . Grenne thank goodness asked the team about if E T's arrived they would pat us on the back and show us ,if they want, a totally dfferent analysis of time and matter within the Universe i believe our minds would be blown away , they may have advanced for millions of years and our advanced computers would seem like a plastic toy to them .

1:25:30 I empathize with the guy who is in a mental prison, a material/physical worldview that worships his own intellect...he is in love with his own ideas...yet he has no idea that he is not his gathered information, he is the thing that is understanding. A fractal patterns underlies our human experience...a symbolic worldview allows you to see that Plato's divided line is the structure onto which the Allegory of the Cave is built on.

Brilliant thought provoking conversation. Thank you.

At 13:25 the flying text 'ENTRORY' quite loudly misspells 'entropy'. Still an amazing video and speaker(s)!

This talk changed my mind. I see what they're getting at from a mathematical perspective, that I was seeing from a biological perspective (being an organism that can be described by the mathematics of evolutionary processes, at that level). Math isn't just a human invention, its definitely a human discovery. I'm just getting into math, and this was a nice talk that really brought in multiple disciplines in the most perfect way, in that its about the fundamentals of reality, like the physics of it, only math is also a fundamental quality. I was on the fence, but yep, I see it. Its a mathematical universe, and you're a mathematical object like Greene says in the end. The quality of conscious experience and mental representations doesn't stump me. Whether all of the mathematics that's invented is just as real as the real stuff, IDK... As mentioned in the following talk, Does nature need, for example, infinities to do its thang?

Thank you WSF for feeding my brain such a healthy dose of awesomeness.

Mathematics is about patterns/sequences. The set of possible different patterns that can be expressed with mathematical points/no points is 2^Aleph1 = Aleph2; the third level of infinity (uncountable). However, the set of different pictures that a given digital camera can take is finite but acts like infinity (I call it pseudo-infinity a general library of babel); which includes all books that any human could read etc., etc.). Looking at the number of possible sequences in the above gives mega-fractal sequences, as well as non fractal sequence's. Adding physics properties/relationships/biological-senses etc., allows one to build worlds, and VR subjective worlds.

Wonderfull...more of this please...we need this!
