hi edwin,

really appreciate your insights. yes different terminology: it took me a while to work past the word "agent" to the heart of what you are saying.

regarding being "embedded in" / borrowing / etc. the field of creative intelligence, i am reminded of the recent experiments to test if we are living in a simulation ("The Matrix"). that reminds me of two things: firstly, the film "Men in Black II", and secondly, some work on Friedmann-Robertson-Walker spacetime where it was postulated that black holes event horizons are simply *dividing-lines* between universes.

each "closed universe" would therefore be on the *INSIDE* of any given black hole within *ANOTHER* universe.

thus, hilariously, the answer to the question "are we inside a simulation" could well - potentially falsely if the tests are not carried out properly - be answered YES by accidentally interacting with the universe outside of the closed-bubble of our black-hole event horizon.

regarding the "field of intelligence"... if it exists, it should be possible to (a) quantify it (b) test for its existence (c) put it to good use (d) etc. etc.

more later

Luke,

Brilliant essay! You really need to read mine!

I agree with just about all you wrote so well, a most important part being that, for QM; "Occam's Razor tells us that there has to be a simpler way."

There is.

And it's hot off the press; 'Classic QM'. Yours is about to get a well earned top score and I'm pretty sure once you've read it you'll agree mine as worth that too. (but hurry for the deadline!) Then see the video too.

I am now quite uplifted. Must be M M Yogi!

Peter

    thanks peter, i'll take a look - even a title "classical quantum consciousness" is a good sign :)

    hi peter - turns out i already did read yours and rate it, some weeks back! :) i did a more comprehensive review just now.

    Dear Sirs!

    Physics of Descartes, which existed prior to the physics of Newton returned as the New Cartesian Physic and promises to be a theory of everything. To tell you this good news I use «spam».

    New Cartesian Physic based on the identity of space and matter. It showed that the formula of mass-energy equivalence comes from the pressure of the Universe, the flow of force which on the corpuscle is equal to the product of Planck's constant to the speed of light.

    New Cartesian Physic has great potential for understanding the world. To show it, I ventured to give "materialistic explanations of the paranormal and supernatural" is the title of my essay.

    Visit my essay, you will find there the New Cartesian Physic and make a short entry: "I believe that space is a matter" I will answer you in return. Can put me 1.

    Sincerely,

    Dizhechko Boris
