Consciousness Through the Resolution of Infinities

Ron Cottam, Nils Langloh, Willy Ranson & Roger Vounckx

Is consciousness an inherent aspect of nature, independent of the progress of evolution, or is it the unpredictably emergent child of evolution itself, independent of nature's precursors? We argue that neither of these simplifications tells the, or tells a, whole story, and that consciousness is neither a monolithic phenomenon nor a fragmented accident. We propose that our environment as we observe it is associated in all its characteristics with the inability of nature to self-consistently stabilize either locally or globally without first resolving its infinite recursions of self-representation. We accept the probable validity of Robert Rosen's explanations of both Newton's and life itself's successes through the short-circuiting of infinite creational nestings, and extend this view back to a rationalization of the 'Big Bang' proposition and forwards to the ultimate emergence of consciousness 'as we know it'. In doing so, we establish the ubiquity of a scalar multiplication of points of view and the importance of hyper-scalarity in defining the nature of intelligence, sapience and causality.
