Theories of Everything with Curt Jaimungal

NOTE

Frequency and intensity in cognitive epochs

The duration of quantum states is too fast for cognitive epochs and gestalt scenes of several hundred milliseconds. Interference patterns are required to resonate and interfere across different scales from terahertz to gigahertz to slower frequencies. The EEG may reflect interference speeds of faster processes occurring at a deeper level. For different organisms, the frequency of experiences is linked to their intensity, with a higher frequency leading to a more intense experience. The number of tubulins determines the content complexity of the experience.
