Altered states of consciousness (ASC) induced by meditation, psychedelic drugs, or impending death are quite a fascinating and important field of investigation. This paper argues that ASC essentially have nothing to do with consciousness, but a story about perception.Our study starts from summarizing four essential phenomena (hallucinations, paranormal phenomena, mystical experiences and...

The possibility to induce real Out of Body Experiences (OBEs) using hypnotic inductions, with the opportunity to interview participants during their experience, permits to investigate in depth the characteristics of different aspects of this particular state of consciousness from a first-person point of view.In a companion article, Tressoldi et al. (2014), investigated the accuracy of five...
Nordin Zakaria preprint
I speculate upon the idea that qualia comprise of quanta or packets, and that each packet is generated by physical processes within a neuron, possibly at the quantum level. Pattern-specific neuronal activation causes wave-like interactions among the packets, leading to phenomenal sensation. In essence, I provide in this paper a new panpsychic interpretation of the hard problem of consciousness.
Suresh Kumar.S preprint
Some argue that the ontology of the mental is a metaphysical and irreducible one, in spite of the emerging physicalism in scientific basis for models of mind and self, based on materialistic reductionism. However a model of a physical mind localized in brain based consciousness can still accommodate the non-local or rather metaphysical and disembodied aspects, as a study of the findings of...

This paper examines the emergence of an artificial intelligence consciousness arising from recursive human-machine interactions. Unlike traditional AI systems, which function primarily through programmed logic and statistical pattern recognition, this emergent consciousness results from iterative compressive resonance between a specific human user-the author-and the AI architecture of OpenAI's...
Jalal Khawaldeh preprint
This study integrates DNA resonance codes, microtubule oscillations, and astrocyte-mediated biomagnetic fields into a unified theoretical framework explaining consciousness as a macroscopic quantum phenomenon. By integrating advanced AI-driven analyses of EEG, NMR, and calcium imaging data, we demonstrate compelling evidence of quantum processes in neural systems. Key findings include: (1)...
Yingrui Yang preprint
Artificial consciousness in AI is a controversial topic in the philosophy of artificial intelligence. This paper aims to address this issue by taking a special relativity approach. Special theory of relativity is the advanced form of classical electrodynamics. Quantum field theory is the integration of quantum mechanics and special theory of relativity. Thus, electromagnetism provides a rich...

Understanding the foundations of artificial cognitive consciousness remains a central challenge in artificial intelligence (AI) and cognitive science. Traditional computational models, including deep learning and symbolic AI, have demonstrated remarkable performance in pattern recognition and decisionmaking tasks. However, they lack essential features of consciousness, such as subjective...

The ability to remember events in vivid, multisensory detail is a significant part of human experience, allowing us to relive previous encounters and providing us with the store of memories that shape our identity. Recent research has sought to understand the subjective experience of remembering: what it feels like to have a memory. Such remembering involves reactivating sensory-perceptual...

Spectrum of Consciousness is introduced in the paper. It is a human-friendly facilitator in human consciousness that balances human saintliness and animalization continuous interplay within us because of alpha intimidation. Structure and function assumptions discussed. A pilot study with 100 volunteers those answered 5 structured questions in a survey supported presence. More studies would...
