Yes. The comp intelligible matter hypostases give the modal logic
corresponding to quantum logic, except that I loose the necessitation
rule.
The significance of this remains to be seen of course.
Ok I get it.

The things I am unclear about are:

what are these?
We assume comp ok? So for example, my current relative mind state can

Ok I get it. I will reread your papers :-) (too much new stuff in one
reading)

be associated with a computational state. By Church thesis, this state

Well, Bruno may be interested to know that I've finally come around to

I do now agree, everything emerges from mathematics. Nevertheless,
the mathematical world does *appear* to seperate into three different

To expand on Günther's question: If we equate computational states

Surely consciousness is both granular (much of what we are conscious of is
pre-processed by the brain and body, and not part of our direct experience.
This gives a huge amount of leeway for underlying ambiguity) and limiting
