Hi John,



I’m having troubles integrating what you are saying into my view of the
world.  Things like “all matter has that Cosmic blueprint baked in to it”
doesn’t seem to fit.  For me, the big problem is that people tend to think
of “Consciousness” (or consciousness?) as a singular thing.  Pan-psychism,
at best talks about elemental matter having “proto-psychism” or something.



To me, Consciousness, free will, self-awareness, intentionality, love...
(and consciousness?) are all composite things composed of lots of stuff.
To me, qualia or physical qualities are elemental things out of which all
these composite things are constructed.  When we are consciously aware of a
strawberry, we have knowledge represented by elemental redness and
greenness physical qualities, representing the strawberry.  Physical
qualities are elemental standalone things, which can be computationally
bound together to become our composite knowledge of the strawberry.  The
computational binding which provides “situational awareness” of what we
need to do to pick the red things, while avoiding the green things is also
something additional.  Would I be correct in thinking that matter which has
a redness quality, has a “Cosmological blueprint” baked into it?



You also said: “all matter has that Cosmic blueprint baked in to it, we
just happen to take that blueprint and animate it (like Chalmer’s ‘hard
problem’…)".  I also can’t find a way to integrate statements like that
into the way I see the world.  To me, Chalmers struggles defining what is
and isn’t part of the hard problem.  But to me, it is only what Joseph
Levine calls the “explanatory gap”.  The normal scientific methods is
constructing models of various parts of reality that appear to have
utility, then working to falsify them.  If you can do that, then it is part
of the easy problem.  It seems we can conceive of how we might test such
models as animating cosmic blueprints, but perhaps this is just more
evidence that I don’t know what you mean by that.  Whatever it is, if we
can conceive of ways to verify or falsify such, it is, to me, just an easy
problem.



Even Joseph Levine has troubles defining exactly what he means by the
“explanatory gap”.  To me, it becomes clear if you provide an example.  If
you could make a statement like: “my redness is like your greenness” this
would be an example of bridging the explanatory gap.  The reason this is
“hard”, is because we don’t really know what qualia are, and everyone
considers qualia to be ineffable.  We have no idea how would could falsify
a statement like: “My redness is like your greenness” This lack of any
ideas of how such might be falsified is the ONLY so-called hard problem.
To me, everything else is easy, and we know how to approach it,
scientifically.



If you google for solutions to the hard problem, there is an unending
supply that will show up.  But, to me, all these so-called solutions are
all easily falsifiable, and hence easy problems – having nothing to do with
the real “hard problem” – the qualitative nature of consciousness.  To me,
this is a clear symptom of the failure to clearly state what is and isn’t a
hard problem and why.



If a redness quale is simply a physical quality of some particular matter,
we can be directly aware of, you can now finally falsify a “My redness is
like your greenness” statement, by discovering which matter has a redness
quality, and which matter does not.  No more “hard” problems.  At least
that is the way I think about the world.
