This is the tour de force of the Theaetetus definition when applied in

The corresponding logic (the modal logic of [1]p, with [1]p defined by
[]p & p), i.e. S4Grz is a formal logic describing a non formalisable
reality accessed by all (sound) machine. Yes, that is a (meta- tour de
force, made possible tanks to Gödel completeness and Incompleteness
theorem, together with Tarski un-definability of truth theorem (and
Scott-Montague un-definability of knowledge theorem).
Qualia are non physical and non numerical, yet phenomenologically real
and explained or “meta-explained”, like for consciousness.
But this is not at all convincing. Just because some things (reflective
relations) are not computable by the prefect logic machine does not show
they are models or instances of qualia. Qualia are perceptions for
example, which are partly shareable.
