I think I haven't always been clear on our definitions of mechanism  
and materialism. But I can understand and accept definitions of those  
terms under which MGA 1 shows that it's logically necessary that Lucky  
Alice is conscious, and MGA 2 shows that it's logically necessary that  
"the projection of the movie makes Alice conscious" (your words from a  
previous email). I think we can proceed with that.

But can you clarify exactly what MECH+MAT is supposed to be saying  
about the movie? Does MECH+MAT say that something special is happening  
when we project the movie, or is the simple existence of the movie  
enough?
