Sorry, but the ‘hard problem’ of consciousness is solved. It’s taken me a year and a half to figure out how to explain it but once you understand it, like many things, it’s not a hard problem at all – it’s rather simple and obvious. (Philosophers look like idiots in retrospect.) Funny, but computational irreducibility (the inability to provide a mathematical description for some phenomena), isn’t any different from the impossibility of introspection. However, once you know the function (operations) you can describe all of human experience. We can’t talk about consciousness – aritifical or not – without agreement on terms:

The Hard Problem Was But Isn’t Any Longer. 😉

I found a video by Max Tegmark (MIT) that explains the math behind the Grammars. Not that I’ll get anywhere by showing formulae. But his slides explain what I’m trying to get across: that the pattern (grammar) is the same at every scale of the universe – including language.

I built a guitar, speakers, a computer (back when that was saying something), and designed houses, paintings, sculptures, and wrote computer games, and all sorts of things. Just creative curiosity. Not so much for the end result as much as to learn and understand.

(I built a guitar when I was in college just ’cause. Today I guess it’s cool given all the kits on the market. Back then I was the only person I knew to have a custom one. Mahogany stain. Loved it. No idea what happened to it across moves and marriages.)

Mass numbers are due to the Harvard/MIT/Other Colleges effect and the systematic retention of graduates in the region. Plus we (people like me) from all over New England migrate to Boston instead of (ick) new york. I left Boston for Seattle (Bellevue) when tech moved west.

John Mark created a nascent movement. It was partly based on my work. And more so his leadership. It was the hope he gave people. But in the end, very few people understood that it was him, not my work that gave them hope. They had no understanding of it – just of him.

No public figures will ever knowingly advance or associate with P-Law until they can obtain influence and power because enough of some faction of the people advance P-Law. Yet P-law is the only non-violent solution to ending the second abrahamic dark ages.

It’s notoriously difficult to produce movies in the Lovecraftian tradition.The subject matter is suitable for a written appeal to the subconscious by indirect reference to experience, but not direct reference by vision. SCP-Overlord, and Darabont’s The Myst, Annihilation succeed.
