| | [AI summary] This text is a comprehensive and detailed exploration of the intersection between consciousness, neuroscience, and philosophy, with a particular focus on the work of Steven Lehar and the Qualia Research Institute (QRI). The article introduces Lehar as a significant figure in the field of consciousness studies, emphasizing his harmonic resonance theory of neurocomputation and its implications for understanding the nature of perception, aesthetics, and the mind-body problem. The piece also highlights the importance of developmental milestones in cognitive understanding, referencing Scott Alexander's work on the 'map is not the territory' concept, and explores the role of psychedelic experiences and neuroimaging in understanding consciousness. The ...

| | [AI summary] The text presents a comprehensive overview of Steven Lehar's contributions to the field of consciousness and neurocomputation, emphasizing his harmonic resonance theory and its implications for understanding human perception, aesthetics, and the nature of reality. It highlights his work on the relationship between the mind and music, the psycho-aesthetic hypothesis, and the concept of frozen time as an alternative explanation for the nature of time and causality. The text also discusses the significance of developmental milestones, particularly the 'map is not the territory' concept from Korzybski's General Semantics, and its relevance to theory of mind. Additionally, it mentions various references and citations related to Lehar's work and other...

| | [AI summary] The text discusses Steven Lehar's harmonic resonance theory and its connection to brain function, particularly in relation to visual perception and neural computation. Lehar's theory suggests that the brain operates through resonant modes rather than individual neurons, and this idea is supported by connectome-specific harmonic wave theory, which links the brain's functional networks to its anatomical structure. The text also explores the implications of these theories, including potential applications in neuroscience and the study of consciousness, such as the possibility of directly manipulating brain harmonics to induce specific states of consciousness.
