| | | | | [AI summary] The text describes three computational simulations designed to model cessation experiences, which are states of reduced phenomenological content. These simulations are based on the concepts of recursive mappings between sensory fields, coupled oscillators, and gestalt detection. The first simulation, the Gestalt Detector, explores how different perspectives interact with our ability to detect patterns in the environment. The second, Standing Wave Pattern Across Multiple Fields, investigates how waves in different fields can be synchronized by using either 3D or 2D distance functions. The third, Fractal Recursive Coherence, models how recursive projections can lead to a state of zero phenomenality by collapsing all projections into a single point... | |

| | | | | [AI summary] The article discusses the modeling of psychedelic tracers using QRI's Psychophysics Toolkit, focusing on the Tracer Replication Tool. It explores how these tracers relate to brain rhythms, self-organized activity, and the concept of connectome harmonics. The text references various studies and theories, including the work of Selen Atasoy, Andrés Gómez-Emilsson, and others, to explain how brain activity patterns can be decomposed and analyzed. The article also mentions the importance of understanding brain states, both under the influence of psychoactive substances and in meditative practices, and how these states might reflect different forms of consciousness. Additionally, it outlines the purpose and usage of the Tracer Replication Tool for col... | |

| | | Update (Dec. 17): Some of you might enjoy a 3-hour podcast I recently did with Lawrence Krauss, which was uploaded to YouTube just yesterday. The first hour is about my life and especially childhood (!); the second hour's about quantum computing; the third hour's about computational complexity, computability, and AI safety. I'm being attacked on... | ||
