A brief, handy rebuttal to materialistic views of consciousness. I would go further, and say that information, even though it is immaterial in its conception, is still derived from the principles of object interaction. Even when forms and functions are divorced from any particular physical substance, they are still tethered to the third person omniscient view - artifacts of communication *about* rather *appreciation of*. Real experiences are not valued just because they inform us about something or other, they are valued because of their intrinsic aesthetic and semantic content. It’s not even content, it is the experience itself. Information must be made evident through sensory participation, or it is nothing at all. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Everything List" group.
