This paper proposes that selfhood is constituted by a global resonance pattern among a defined set of existential-layer functional modules. We advance this as a constitutive claim—not merely a correlational or necessary-condition claim—and we invite empirical falsification on this basis. Drawing on converging evidence from meditation neuroscience and synchronization physics, we decompose the...
This paper develops an interdisciplinary theoretical framework arguing that a deep structural correspondence obtains between carbon-based neural systems (biological brains) and silicon-based computational systems (artificial neural networks), and derives from this correspondence the structural conditions under which silicon-based systems could give rise to self-consciousness. The term...
