Which is just your idiosyncratic way of saying that we have to apply a projection operator.

No, we have to recover the "projection operator" from the computationalist quantization. It is a math problem.

So do it.

That has been the subject of the PhD thesis. I can explain all the detail, but you will need to invest more time in computer science/ mathematical logic. It is not a simple problem. UDA took a flash in my childhood, AUDA took 30 years of works (in part because some people makes me doubt of some results or conjecture I made for years, until I saw them solved and published by others, to which I refer. The problem now is that those interested in metaphysics seem to be not enough patient to do the math. Philosophy attracts often people who dislike a lot math and "exact" science. My whole main point is that with computationalism, the mind body problem is translated into a problem in math.
And the solution is given by the
[i]<i>p, p sigma_1, with i = 1, 2, 3, and [1]p = []p & p, [2]p = []p & <>t, and [3]p = [2]p & p (and [] is Gödel's beweisbar, and <>t = ~[]~t = ~[]f).

The solution to what?  And what does it mean "given by".

The solution of the problem of recovering a projection operator in the mechanist context, and here in the quantum logic that you obtain by inverting Goldblatt modal quantum logic from the sigma_1 arithmetical proposition. Roughly speaking, you recover an arithmetical interpretation of some quantum logic by interpreting the atomic p by []<>p in a modal logic obeying the axioms of the modal logic B (normal modal logic + the axiom p -> []<>p, + []p -> p), by a result by Goldblatt. The [i]<i>p obeys to a similar logic than B (B without the necessitation rule + a "Löbian" corresponding axioms, derived by Vandenbusch for [3]<3>p), so we get a quantum logic on the sigma_1 sentences (which play the role of the finite pieces of computations) with "[]<>p" playing the role of the "projection operator", which plays the role of the "yes-no" experiences in the UD measure problem.
