Some Thoughts on Quantum Mechanics and Consciousness — SNOWDROP
The curious fact that human consciousness seems to be a way for the universe to observe itself ties in closely to developments in science over the past century, most notably in the field of quantum physics – the field of science concerned with phenomena at the microscopic scale (atoms and sub-atomic elements). The enigma that emerges at the quantum

Of course, there is still a great debate about what we mean by an “act of observation”, in that all acts of observation are, in effect, a measurement. Traditional physicists argue that by simply being “measured” – that is, by being in contact with already collapsed matter – any wave function becomes a solid object. Others argue that an act of measu

Copenhagen Interpretation. Reality, they said to those present, does not exist as something separate from the act of observation. A quantum object has no intrinsic properties. An electron is not in any fixed place until it is measured; it is only in that instant that it appears. Before being measured, it has no attributes; prior to observation, it
