Salvia, like Ketamine, (but quite less dangerous, and anti-

"Galois connection" between 1p-mind (consciousness) and its 3p
local handlings (the 3p-brains). By making a peculiar dissociation
at some place in the brain, one are left with the feeling that we
are *less* than we are used to think, and that we are consequently
in front of *more* possibilities. That "Galois connection" occurs
in many place in math: less equations = more solutions, or less
axioms = more interpretations/models. Somehow less brain = more
experience, or more intense and richer feeling of experience. This
would make the brain being more a filter of consciousness than a
producer of consciousness.
Hmmmmmmm……"less is more". Another of my favourite expressions.
Please explain the "Gallic connection" (connection galoise à
laquelle tu pointe). I am currently convinced that the brain
"receives" the mind, much as a radio receiver receives signal, so
this makes INTUITIVE sense to me.
I assume he was referring to
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Galois_connection
Not bad article. I was alluding to the syntax/semantics (Galois)
connection, and its generalization into machine and machine's
behavior, or machine and machine's mind, when the brain becomes a
filter of consciousness instead of "producer" of consciousness, but
all this are open problems (in arithmetic/computer science).
