A Relativistic Theory of Consciousness

1 post in this topic

For anyone with the time and the energy to read it, here's a very long paper published back in May which makes some very interesting points.

If I'm understanding them correctly, they seem to be suggesting that ALL consciousness is objective and physical, and that it isn't actually "consciousness" in the way that we're accustomed to thinking about it. They suggest that subjectivity is an illusion and it is merely an impersonal relativistic viewpoint, NOT an internal experience.  Sounds incoherent? Take a read. Would be interested in hearing the thoughts of the smarties here.

Apparently.
