That's so true; thank you for pointing it out, Ted! I will leave links: ruclips.net/video/GK-cvdz-isQ/видео.html ruclips.net/video/jBiUesa9m7s/видео.html
That was super interesting. I was mentally shouting epilepsy! right before you said it, and also thinking orgasm, and the sudden release from tension that some serial killers supposedly experience after doing what they do. This idea seems to be at least a piece of the puzzle.
Thank you so much for your kind words! The orgasm (as a sudden relief of tension) is a great examples that I didn't think of. It's like cathartic moments, "avalanche"- like cascade/relief. Made me think of figurative "phase transition" in one's emotional or physical state.
Look at it in terms of the distance information can have causal power. At the critical point not only is this a maxima but so is the unconstrained causal repertoire in the future direction.
@@dorkmattergirlyou have a neat channel, I hope you keep exploring. I really like the work of Peter Tse, Julio Tononi, Kristoff Koch, David Chalmers and Karl Friston. Though lately AI community seems to be recoiling, really over sensitive to feeling legitimacy, starts calling consciousness research pseudoscience.
@weirdsciencetv4999 thank you for the compliment. I really appreciate your sharing thoughts, resources, and our conversations here! I have similar interests, plus maybe Anil Seth, Stuart Hameroff, and Rodger Penrose (maybe?). I (personally) wouldn't call consciousness research pseudoscience, more like metaphysics, which might not fully fit within the framework of the scientific method, similar to questions like "What existed before the Big Bang?" But I still believe it's worth exploring! :)
@@dorkmattergirl I have a slightly different perspective. I think consciousness totally within the reach of science, but we need a science of the subjective. The questions aren’t moot like, “what happened before big bang” as you put it.
why do you assume matter, time and space are fundamental? to me it makes much more sense that the consciousness is fundamental and the matter, time and space arise from it. for example your direct experience when you go to sleep is that matter, time and space disappear, but you don't experience yourself disappearing. you just experience the absence of matter, time and space. and when you wake up matter, time and space reappear. i mean something must be prior to experience our experience and that's consciousness.
I said something like this on a previous video and got labeled a god-of-the-gaps proponent. The assumption that space/time is fundamental is clearly because that's all that science can measure, and I don't think a phenomenological approach can resolve the issue either. Fun, fun, fun.
The way this video is made is a breath of fresh air in a sea of highly editorialized, higly scripted videos, I love it
Thank you so much for saying this! (=^ ◡ ^=)
The tug-of-war between chaos and order reminds me of the Free Energy Principle we talked about!

Totally, that's another (I guess more academic?) way of expressing what I meant in the video.Thank you!
