Every time we recall a story or tell it to others, we change small bits depending on whether our audience... See more

Before a tipping point in a complex system, there are early warning signals that may be detected.14 The most widely applicable of these early warning signals is “critical slowing down”—the phenomenon we are all familiar with before our computer crashes, and rather than heed the implications of this slower processing power, we jam at the keys in

If my hypothesis is right then consciousness exists in a broader quantum field-based system and biological death is only a transition point that we could potentially interrupt on a quantum level and transfer consciousness. Consciousness may not die in a classical sense but could exist in a temporally distributed state, hinting at the possibility of... See more

Given the large degree to which metaphors from digital technologies shape our understanding of memory, it’s surprising that our images of memory are so abstracted from how humans experience memory.
