10.5 A Theory of Consciousness

Many researchers assume that (a) the world (W) consists of the physical

world (P) and the mental world (M), (b) M emerged (E) from P, and (c) it

should be possible to discover the physicochemical processes and princi-

ples that cause the emergence of M from P:

W = P + M (10.11)

PM→E (10.12)

According to Petoukhov [158] and Ji [27] the Universe can be

viewed as a system of oscillators and a self-organizing musical instru-

ment. As is well known, all material particles in living systems (includ-

ing metabolites such as ATP, glucose, Pi, enzymes, cytoskeletons, DNA,

RNA, etc.) and nonliving systems are organized systems of oscillators

and resonators (i.e., two or more coupled oscillators) interacting with

one another throughout the Universe through electromagnetic, mechani-

cal, gravitational, and chemical concentration waves, obeying the

Fourier theorem.

It appears that the triadic models of the world proposed by Plato [37,

p. 58], Popper [37, p. 59], Penrose [37, p. 96], and Burgin [37, p. 60]

embody Peirce’s ITR discussed in Chapter 9. This idea can be represented

diagrammatically as shown in Figure 10.6.

f = natural science; g = human science; h = information flow to give rise to the innate

knowledge of the human mid (?).
