still lies in the "information turn" that plays in physics today.(*it from 
qubit*, etc.) - a rejection pf materialism in favor of idealism.

It is more interesting to me to stick to the vocabulary of materialist* 
physics - particles, fields, interactions, forces - but to approach 
*consciousness 
as purely material* - adding a new force/interaction/particle/field as 
needed (like a sixth force/field).

etc.
