What I'm saying though is that cells are as much a product of electromagnetic fields as electromagnetic fields are a product of cells. In fact, I can see that they are not products of each other so much as cells are the exterior view of electromagnetism, and that electromagnetism is nothing more or less than sensorimotive phenomenology. > > http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bioelectromagnetism > > What does it mean? > It means there isn’t biological cell without electromagnetic fields. > It means that in the cell we have two ( 2 ) substances: > matter and electromagnetic fields. > And in 1985 Richard P.

Once we understand that the universe has an exterior which seems public, generic, a-signifying, and mechanical and an interior which seems private, proprietary, signifying, and teleological then nature makes perfect sense. > # > Once again: > 1. > Cells and electromagnetic field - they are you. > 2. > We cannot understand their interaction and therefore > we don’t know the answer to the question: ‘ who am I ?’ > ===. > Socratus. We can't understand their interaction because we are looking it from the outside-in. Here is how an alien quantum physicist would see the phenomenon of an Earthling seeing a TV commercial for pizza and ordering a pizza: 1. A two dimensional virtual anti-pizza appears out of the vacuum potential. 2. The anti-pizza is absorbed by the stomach/mouth-couch ensemble. 3. The ensemble initiates a telephone transcriptase code which charges the house with a Papa John field. 4. The transcription decoheres and becomes non-local. 5. A Papa John ensemble collapses the transcription and releases a t- pizza. 6. The t-pizza collides with the PJ+ charged house, producing a three dimensional pizza. 7. The pizza becomes entangled with the stomach/mouth-couch ensemble, neutralizing the anti pizza. It is technically correct. It can be proved. But it misses the semantic realism. Hunger. Flavor. Sense. Qualia. These are the whole point of ordering a pizza. I consider this era to be the Dark Ages of understanding consciousness. We have not even begun to guess what we are missing and are trying hard to go the other direction and explain the universe without any sense at all. The result is absurd, but through the amazing properties of sensemaking, works in a sense also.
