I don't quite see why Kuhn said that ORCH OR doesn't articulate with Idealism?: If you define Idealism as "Consciousness causes the Cosmos and is Everything" then I dare say Penrose-Hameroff Theory is precisely Idealistic (it's just NOT subjective Idealism)! It's NO Deepak Chopra Woo Woo on the contrary it is just as physicalist and common sense as loophole Free Bell Tests allow us to believe. It is Idealism or may be articulated as Idealist creed it's just that because consciousness causes the Cosmos it DOESN'T mean that it's "human consciousness" that does it. And unlike in Donald Hoffmans philosophy it's not unreasonable if Objective Reduction is correct to suppose that the Laws of Physics are the same for all beings no matter how different from humans in the Universe. I don't quite understand people like Bernardo Kastrups followers: They are biting Sir Roger Penrose just as bad as Tegmark people. Why don't they understand that Orch Or is precisely what Kastrup teaches but just unlike his teachings gives you meaning in the world that can be explored independent of human consciousness and were are ways to objectively confirm that you are not Solitarily mind and that there are solid pieces of reality that no one questions! Not to mention that although I don't know why people came to associate Berkeley's Idealism with things like Telepathy or synchronicities... Copenhagen nor Relational QM that Kastrup proposed gives you no possibility of such things Unlike Objective Collapse with Wave Function being real physical object. At last not only does Penrose-Hameroff Theory if correct falsify Simulation on any conceivable device (Quantum or clasical alike), but if CCC is correct it also potentially may refute more sophisticated versions of "Simulation Hypothesis" such as Universe being created in a "Black Hole computer". 1 Indirect Discovery of Hawking Radiation in 2019 already undermined this possibility and 2 even before that observations of Back Holes didn't quite fit Lee Smolins predictions.. 3 Lee Smolins Cosmology assumes that Einsteins GR is an ultimate description of Black Holes with it's Singularity and White Hole reverse. But the very idea of Singularity pooping supposedy at Big Bang and in Black Holes mamy be just a coincidence and misunderstanding of some deeper Theory. Anyway Sir Roger Penrose is the greatest mind alive!

Consciousness is that which causes the initial collapse of the quantum wave function which causes the universe to manifest. It is pure subjectivity-Isness awareness, not subject to being seen, known, studied, or objectified in any way. The primordial “I.”

Roger Penrose is a unique personality. Thanks for the talk that stimulates our minds. One request (may be you consider me strange or sort of this, any way)- if someone here knows the address, email, where i could send some articles (links to them) of a russian scientist Gennadiy Shipov, who proposed s theory of physical vacuum in which method of NP-formalism is applied to find solution of equations. In the theory as the author states General Relativity theory and Quantum Mechanics are united in one.

Please - write his ideas to the stones! For the next generations.

Sir Roger predicts that a new kind physics will be required to explain consciousness. Seems to be that he is leaning towards a field of consciousness with the example of how animals working together to create a trap without any know language. Always enjoy listening to Sir Roget Penrose.

The equation that really bends spacetime is G, when G coherence goes sqrt(r_0 × 0.5 au) to just object, to G bending 2D.

Microtubules are about 25 nanometers in diameter and an atom is about .1 nanometers in diameter. So collapsing the wave function at that scale physically affects the microtubules, modifying it's structure or shape?

neurons have something that when combined with collapse or measurement of wave function produces consciousness? could neuron energy have a way of measuring quantum wave function?

Robert questions why the collapse of the wave function "causes" consciousness in biological systems whereas it does not in inorganic matter. Or, does it? If we have a layer of abstraction below the physical world, call it "awareness", we can imagine how such world emerges from awareness, not the other way around. This has been suggested and studied by Dean Radin and Don Hoffman in Closer to Truth, among others. In the cerebellum, I venture, awareness causes control of the human body, for instance in babies, which is then analyzed and understood (in the Penrose sense of the word), "maturing" into consciousness. If this process is keyed off gravity, as Sir Roger Penrose ventures, it must be tied to evolution, which requires, most of all, the existence of time. Physics needs to work seriously on time. It has plenty to say about space but reduces time as a unidirectional and linear pseudo dimension of space, and that's not it! Time is cyclical, as marked by the movements of the celestial bodies. Time and gravity cause evolution by generating diversity (Dyson's words), over the multiple "incantations" of our universe, following something akin to Penrose's Conformal Cyclic Cosmology.

We consider in particular various possible quantizations of twistor spaces that leave the underlying spacetime manifold classical, including the geometric quantization of twistor spaces originally constructed by the second author, as well as some variants based on noncommutative geometry. We discuss specific aspects of the gluing construction for these different quantization procedures.

I can tell you now from personal experience that consciousness IS "secondary" to the brain, namely, is non-local. I have experienced various Out of Body states, and lucid dream states, whereby my awareness was not in my physical body, so to speak. I was able to travel away from my body and witness things which I could not have known whilst 'unconscious'. My awareness during these moments was CONSIDERABLY more lucid than my current waking consciousness - in fact things felt more real during my OBE than what I feel at this moment. So my theory is that consciousness is some sort of energy field which is neither created nor destroyed. I certainly don't think neurons produce awareness. I think its considerably more complex than that and something to do with quantum entanglement. And I am not remotely religious.

The metaphor of a scaffold where a quantum system supports a conscious state which collapses though entails personal identity over time as a social construction.

Brain - Mind ----- Our brain works on a dualistic basis: usually consciousness and rarely subconsciousness. ------ 1 - Consciousness of the brain works on various electromagnetic energy fields (alpha, beta, . . . etc.) An electroencephalogram (EEG) can record this ''normal logical'' electrical activity of the brain (brain works as computer - "Turing Machine") 2 - Subconsciousness is process on micro-quantum-level (brain suddenly takes a new decision / action - "eureka") The reason of unconscious process is quantum particle . Suggestion: According to the Pauli Exclusion Principle, only one (1) electron can manage an atom, molecule, cell, brain. ----- a) Quantum process appears when all atoms of brain are in Bose-Einstein state (superfluidity). b) Then the electron gains strength to ''superconductivity'' and can change the old brain's program to a new decision - "eureka". New decision is result of - a "Self-quantum particle". c) After a short moment- "eureka" the brain again works like a computer. (but according to a new program) d) In the brain Quantum mechanics is connected with the unconscious process. =====. ''The laws of quantum mechanics itself cannot be formulated ... without recourse to the concept of consciousness.'' - Eugene Wigner # Book: ‘'The Holographic Universe’' ''Contrary to what everyone knows it is so, it may not be the brain that produce consciousness, but rather consciousness that creates the appearance of the brain'' / page 160, by Michael Talbot / # “… Indeed an understanding of psi phenomena and of consciousness must provide the basis of an improved understanding of quantum mechanics. ” / Evan Walker / ======.

Every discussion I see on "consciousness" starts by refusing to define the word, and then ends in confusion over why something that hasn't been defined can't be explained at all. You're not going to get any closer to understanding if you don't start with some strong, precise definitions first. You cannot understand a thing if you refuse to define it to the point that it can be analyzed. It also makes it impossible to have a meaningful conversation because for all you know the other person may be thinking of something completely different.

It would be surprising if human beings, who are capable of contemplating both the quantum and the cosmic, and whose life is lived almost exactly midway between these two, did not have a selfhood that also participated somehow in the entire spectrum of existence. It would be strange if our consciousness were entirely uninvolved in the quantum world. How do we "understand" the universe if not by feeling a resonance with it within our selves? Is not selfhood a prerequisite for consciousness? A computer cannot make an autonomous decision as to the "rightness" of a solution without a self-interested agent programming into it the criterion for success. A computer cannot direct the process of scientific research, because it has no autonomy, no self.

From the explanations provided by Prof penrose, a few other conclusions can be derived here,as the followings: Microtubial coherence effect could be originated by some kind of crystaline vibration ,to initiate the process,and also a new analogy in between the creation of a state of resonance,specialy once it is explained here there are active symmetrical elements working at two higher and lower levels of may be frequency and vibrations,what could be also associated with microscopic sw energy,having a direct role in the entire operation of creating a super position phenomena,in within the brain structure,which can also be incorporated with the existance and creation of tiny black holes,with holding vast amounts of informations and memories at their surfaces,which can be recalled and get access to via the selective method of taping into the archives of stored informations,and it all looks very much a alologeous to what could also explain the theory of everything,which its actual mechanism also most certainly not only envolves the application of sw as the main carrier and intermediate wave in action also justifying the mechanisms for the quantum mechanics entanglement ,also working as the spooky hidden variable in action as Prof Einstein put it,and the whole package seemingly anologeous and identical in basic principles of operations and mechanisms,in otherwords what happens in space in terms of action of eather,or interconnection of all different elements of informations and datas all taking place almost instantaneously and simultaneously,with sw is the main contrubuting factor being active and in operation ,a replica operation of the same mechanisms, could well be what actualy takes place in within the brain structure,in otherwords,the human consciousness and universal consciousness seemingly could have extremely similar mechanisms of action,and further details simply can follow by further studies into different hypothetical mechanisms of consciousness also associated with creation of an alternative dimensional media,where huge and unlimited amounts of datas and informations could be stored And also an empowered state of quantum superposition ,where physical muscles may come into action,and again the derivation of material from the fabric of dark matter and dark energy from within the emty space,these are the topic technologies in action which could be active to explain the ongoing mechanisms and also analogies In between the universal and human brain consciousness, as well as supper human brain qualities such as telekinitics, Or , resonance cooperated coherence operations of brain mucrotubilulars creating and magnifying the collapse of waveforms phenomenas,also in cooperated with actions of crystaline structures at the surface of the pinial gland once activated,decalsified and operational, Which again Could function having an active role to higher the levels of amplification and magnification needed for the collapse of waveforms. ,once applied to the pinial gland, Hence from the said above ,also the basic hypothesises for interconnection in between spirituality and materialism,as well as possible extraction of materials derivatives from empty space ,and the mechanisms for the universal and human brain consciousness basic principles have been hypothesised.

there is a direct knowledge or formless awareness that is fundamental time. This is what Penrose calls protoconsciousness - it creates the universe.

Isn’t consciousness, a.k.a. awareness just logical decisions, but intertwined with human emotions? Couldn’t consciousness be a fallacy or an illusion due to our addiction to emotions? Not to be-little the complexity of the physics of our body’s ability to make quick and accurate decisions, like discussed in this video. Amazing topic, and very interesting to ponder about.

The memories are what makes consciousness aswell? You gain memories by decisions based on emotions. In presence you use your experience from past. You make new decisions based on your experience and memory of emotions from past.

You didn't understand a thing... The point he is trying to make is that conciousness/soul/self aware/mind is different from simple computations like those in a PC, microchip, AI, electrons firing in a circuit, pure computing power, neural networks, etc. When you realise something that is beyond the scope of what a silicon can "understand" (it just follow complex algorithms, a rule of instructions that are in a close system of step by step logic preprogrammed of 0 and 1). For instance, when you want to make a computer have a trip how do you insert it the drug, mushrooms, acid, psychodelics through the ventilator or via electric waves, it is kind of weird to have computations like in a washing machine, fridge or tv have an experience apart from following the book with the guidelines, we are humans not robots, so don't reduce awareness to logical decisions cause then your smartphone will be more "aware" than you. If you are an illusion kill yourself and let the non fallacy/thinking individuals swim and enjoy life. For singularity, General AI fans, can your dream GOD dream or experience the world or just question itself, or have the will to do something or be critic about its purporse? Good night

Emotion is a meaningless term without a knower/experiencer of the emotions. Awareness and consciousness are not the same thing either. Advaita Vedanta covers Awareness, consciousness, self, reality, and god in tremendous detail. All physics does is educate stupidity into the studier. These doofs spend their whole life and career spending 5 minutes learning Advaita Vedanta and dismissed it immediately as it didn't fit into their conditioned belief system. Until one learns to UNLEARN their built-in stupidity, they'll get nowhere on consciousness

isn't it obvious what consciousness do? It gives meaning to the things. Attaching qualia to the things is just beginning of that process.

Consciousness, the present, and infinity, are 3 aspects of the same thing, the same trinity.

Whomsoever was here the longest has the computing all harnessing ability to manipulate the Environment would be sir GOD I presume😊

Consciousness, as I think about its purpose is that consciousness allows those that are, or become conscious, to own their minds, meaning that decision making is from within, instead of depending on others - such as mainstream "controlled" media, friends, or family. Discernment is rare these days. Consciousness is a bi-product of overcoming one's neurosis. I doubt those who are psychotic can become conscious, since there are perhaps organic reasons for their specific mental disturbances that are untreatable. My understanding is unproven and unscientific, obviously. However it is Experiential. My remarks seem simplistic in comparison to the sophisticated level of ideas presented by Closer to Truth and Roger Penrose. Why does no one else offer up their experiences and hypotheses? Could I be delusional? Possibly, but doubtful. I'm willing to be tested. Step up! Anyone? LOL...no takers yet!

Not to be contrary, really, but we still haven't defined Consciousness and we and they here use the word constantly.

These are all interesting views, but here’s my take. First off, let’s define consciousness. I view it as being unified subjective qualitative experience. It’s the awareness that “the lights are on” from the inner perspective of an agent. My view is that consciousness is fundamental, irreducible, and metaphysically simple for the following reasons. Consciousness cannot be an emergent property that arises intrinsically from neurons themselves or from the propagation of action potentials amongst the vastly complex neural networks in the brain. If it were an emergent property, than it would be rational to conclude that it would be ontologically epiphenomenal, thus being incongruent with the indisputable fact that we have knowledge of our consciousness and thus, are able to share its qualitative contents with other agents. We have epistemic access to our own consciousness and to imply that it is a phenomenal emergent property, would require top-down causation which we have no evidence for in the natural world. A simple analogy for epiphenomenalism is how an emergent property, the color red from an apple, has no causal influence over the chemical composition that gives rise to it. The color red is an “effect” of the atoms that the Apple is composed of. A higher level “effect” cannot “affect” lower levels of structure in any material quantity or process we observe in nature. Moving onwards, consciousness cannot be identical to brain states, or by extension, the neuronal correlates of consciousness. According to the Law of Identity, two quantities can be identical, if and only if, they share the exact same properties. To showcase how mental events are ontologically distinct from neuronal events, one can consider statements or beliefs that we view as being either true or false. If I think of something as being true, it’s correlated neuronal states are not representative of being “true” by themselves. If I subjectively experience the rich and sweet taste of vanilla ice cream, there is no associated brain state that can match up with the mental, qualitative experience of taste. It is a category error to equate mental states to neuronal states because the two are of separate ontologies. Material quantities cannot be representative of other qualities simply by themselves. A conscious mind is required to ascribe a relational, semantical meaning to a physical quantity. Despite a wealth of empirical evidence that showcases material causation on conscious perceptions such as color, sound, and tactility, it is hasty to rule out a causative role for consciousness on material quantities. We, and by extension, our brains have knowledge of the existence of consciousness, which should dispel any epiphenomenal claims that consciousness is an emergent property with no causal power. Moving onwards, consciousness is intrinsically intertwined with intentionality and semantics. The very relational aspect it ascribes towards certain subjects, forms the core of its ontology. Consciousness cannot be an intrinsic or emergent property of computation. Computation deals solely within the domain of algorithms. Put simply, a computation matches an input to an output in accordance to an algorithm. In other words, computation is involved with the manipulation of syntax, not semantics. Intellection, which can be described as the ability to comprehend abstract concepts such as mathematics, morality, and beauty, requires a distinct and separate ontology that is not congruent within the tenets of computation. Regardless of how complex an artificial intelligence program becomes, it will never possess the qualities of intellection as it can only deal with syntax, not semantics. A good philosophical thought experiment showcasing how computation is incompatible with intellection is John Searle’s “Chinese Room.” An individual who does not speak or understand a single word of Chinese is placed inside an isolated room with many filing cabinets labeled with foreign Chinese characters. The only connection between him and the external world is through a small slit which another person can use to deliver papers with various Chinese symbols written on it and instructions on which filing cabinet symbols to match them with. After several hours of matching corresponding Chinese symbols from the filing cabinets to the symbols inserted in the room from the slit, the person inside the room slides the finished arrangements outside through the slit and the people outside start becoming convinced that the person inside the room is gaining a true semantical understanding of Chinese. Despite several months of manipulating syntax through the form of Chinese symbols, the person inside the Chinese Room does not gain a true comprehension of the semantics underlying the Chinese language. Thus, computation, being the matching of an input (Chinese symbols from the slit) to an output (filing cabinet Chinese symbols) in accordance with an algorithm (instructions on how to match the symbols in a language the person inside the room has semantical understanding of) showcases how computation is not ontologically equipped for semantics. No matter how good the person inside the Chinese room gets at executing the instructions on matching Chinese symbols, he will never gain a semantical understanding of Chinese. This thought experiment can be applied to any biological or non-biological computational apparatus, such as neuronal circuits and silicon-based integrated circuits. Thus, it is rational to conclude that the attribution of a relational quality to a given object/subject requires a non-computational entity to do so. This is what I view as being the core function of consciousness. Assuming the existence of conscious agents beyond one’s own subjective experience and avoiding any solipsistic notions, humans and other animals could have been non-conscious biological automata carrying out virtually identically tasks to their conscious counterparts. There is no reasonable evolutionary advantage for a complex multicellular organism to be conscious and comprehend semantics, although it does not mean that there necessarily has to be. But, to state that consciousness itself evolved over the course of our evolutionary history seems to be at odds with its non-computational ontology. If consciousness is fundamental, irreducible, and metaphysically simple, it cannot be quantified, thus making its evolution over time seem rather implausible. Although you can increase or decrease the number of qualitative experiences being experienced by a conscious observer, such as through the evolution of new sensory organs, it does nothing to explain the ontological evolution of consciousness itself. In conclusion, I think that it is a category mistake to label consciousness as an emergent property of the brain, as doing so would lead to an incongruent notion of epiphenomenalism, which contradicts our common sense, subjective notion of having knowledge of its own existence. To claim phenomenal emergent consciousness, would indicate top-down causation which we have no evidence for existing in nature. In addition, equating conscious states with brain states is equally as fallacious, since it fails to address how neurons themselves equate to semantical states of intellection or how computation enacted within the substrates of biological neuronal networks is compatible with semantics. Computation itself is insufficient for explaining how abstract contents that possess relational attributes other than themselves ie. intentionality, can be encoded in individual neurons and their myriad of connections. As I’ve stated previously, computation involves the manipulation of syntax. It is not ontologically equipped for semantics. As preposterous as this may sound, I believe that there may exist a fundamental mental reality that is abundant with semantic attributes that cannot be reduced to physical attributes. It’s as if mental attributes such as qualia, and abstract concepts seem to “wrap themselves” around physical substrates, such as neurons in the case of humans and other animals in some incomprehensible, non-spatial manner, whenever we see correlated neural activity in the cerebral cortex. I acknowledge that the onus of proof falls upon me to be able to empirically validate this claim, in addition to addressing a bi-directional causal mechanism that can account for communication between the mental and the physical substrates, such as neurons. However, given my reasons for why consciousness is non-emergent, non-computational, and not equated with neurons and their connections, I remain unconvinced by materialist philosophical scenarios that can account for addressing the mind-body problem. I find myself at a cross roads between substance-dualism and idealism. Either the mental realm and the physical realm are two separate ontological entities that interact with each other in some way that we have not yet discovered, or it is the case that consciousness is fundamental and “physical reality” as we know it is derivative.

The consciousness need not be epiphenominal, in the sense that there are physical/behavioral outcomes that are only achievable by creating a physical state that entails a corresponding experience… But I agree we need to add some kind of fundamental mental variable to existing physical theory: I agree there’s no way to derive or “emerge” experience from non-mental physical variables like mass, charge, position and velocity. So I think we can still entertain a dual-aspect monism rather than resorting to the idea that the mind is not related to the brain, which is really not supportable. So far I haven’t addressed how these physical states with mental properties are “about” other things-I.e. intentionality. I think they appear to refer to outside things by referring to different aspects of their own internal representation; and because we ground our internal model on sensory inputs it usually agrees with others’ internal model enough that we can communicate and agree about empirical results and the ‘real’ world. I don’t think this pushes us all the way to idealism but may be consistent with it.

I'm curious about Penrose's statements of the collapse of the wave function and the cerebellum. In 2002 I had surgery for a brain bleed, or a brain aneurysm at Harborview Hospital. Using robotics (assumed) the "surgeon" nicked my cerebellum, at the time of instrument extraction, resulting in a surgical stroke (in the cerebellum, I assume. I lost the ability to walk, talk. It took 5-6 months to recover walking an d speech. In 2014, during sleep, my dream registered a shift (for lack of a better word.) Upon waking, I visited Eckhart Tolle's meditation channel and immediately knew that God is within, and I instantly began reading about Spirituality, understanding all that I read. (I turned away from Christianity in my early twenties, instead, learning about psychological thinking) (I read about Spirituality when in late teens and decided that I would pick Spirituality later in life!) Consciousness grew slowly over several years. It's difficult for me to judge hoew Conscious I am, now...85%?

I concede it's POSSIBLE that the collapse of the wave function has something to do with consciousness. It is in the nature of species to evolve ways to use the properties of physics to their advantage. Light, sound, odor are obviously all conditions of physics which species have evolved to use. .These conditions are, of course, understood, as are the sensory organs which gather their aspects. We see noses, so we are accustomed to having ready answers to the question of how odor, for example, is perceived.. We see no specific organ sensing wave function collapse. This does not mean we don't possess any. The immune system perceives risks and responds to them without an obvious sensory organ planted on someone's face. I guess I am, however, still skeptical at Penrose's claim that consciousnes is "not computational". This seems a tremendous leap given the fact we have not reached the limits of, for example, computer computation. We should, I think, have a fuller understanding of what computation alone can do before we declare what it cannot do.
