Aesthetic Holos Analogy
What I mean when I talk about the eternal totality of conscious experience (or Aesthetic Holos):
Instead of thinking of imagination as a capacity to create images, I propose that imagination is simply the fact that there is a way to selectively access infinite images that are always repeating and changing.
Imagination isn’t a separate thing from that. It’s only a capacity or capability if we assume there is something else that could exist instead – some eternal void where images don’t exist. I’m just refraining from making that assumption and suggesting instead that such a void is itself an image within the ever growing totality of images.
There was never a formless potential or essence or sourceness-of-images, images have always been actual and they always will be.
Now instead of images, substitute conscious experience in general. Our individualized conscious experience is like ‘experiencination’ because it is an experience that accesses the totally of experience in a relatively limited and *partially* selectable way.
The end of our mortal experience is just a return to the totality of experience, because there is no nothingness or experience of nothingness to take its place.
Emergent properties can only exist within conscious experience.
…
Neither matter nor information can ‘seem to be’ anything. They are what they are.
It makes more sense that existence itself is an irreducibly sensory-motive phenomenon – an aesthetic presentation with scale-dependent anesthetic appearances rather than a mass-energetic structure or information processing function. Instead of consciousness (c) arising as an unexplained addition to an unconscious, non-experienced universe (u) of matter and information (mi), material and informative appearances arise as from the spatiotemporal nesting (dt) of conscious experiences that make up the universe.
Materialism: c = u(mdt) + c
Computationalism: c = u(idt) + c
Multisense Realism: u(midt) = c(c)/~!c.
