Sounds like "physics" to me.

If physics is transcendental, a lot of people may be wasting their time trying to find a TOE.

The physical TOE would be a very natural candidate for the general TOE, if it was not dissolving consciousness and person when tackling the mind body problem.

The fact that the most coherent and rational materialist tend to eliminate consciousness is coherent with the UDA conclusion. We cannot have both a primitive materials universe, and a mechanist expanation of the mind.


I have suggested based on string theory that we can have a primitive materialistic universe derived from

If it is "primitive", it cannot be "derived from".
i use "primitive" in the sense of "having to be assumed in the theory", or "not derivable" (yet, accepted).




the effectively complete computations of a metaverse machine and at the same time a mind and consciousness derived from an incomplete universe machine. That is, mind/body comes from two different comp machines, one infinite and the other finite. Richard

It is a bit fuzzy, but that sounds reasonable. Yet, string theory comes from experimentation (if only because it is build on QM) which is, in comp, a bit of a sort of treachery. This prevents the use of the G/G* separation to be exploited for consciousness and qualia.

Consciousness is the grain of dust in the picture of reality, which will force us to come back to seriousness in the fundamental questioning about the mind.
