Infinite Now, with Sean Crowley

What are the boundaries of Consciousness? Biologically, it's thought that we can identify a capacity for sentience or sapience simply by the structure of an animal's nervous system, but are the lines of consciousness that easily drawn? Join us as we explore the complexities and the implications of measuring consciousness.

From the hard problem of consciousness to integrated information theory, humanity has desperately tried to understand the bounds of consciousness. But can it be reduced to a numerical value? Join us as we explore the complexities and the implications of measuring consciousness.

What ties mind to matter? Does the self die during teleportation? Can the self be uploaded? Join us for our final chapter of Act 1, as we journey through the realms where science and philosophy meet.

Is Time fundamentally quanta? And if so, are the self and consciousness also fundamentally quanta? What is it for something to be considered quanta in the first place, and furthermore… what does it mean to be fundamental? In this chapter, we unpick these and try to understand our 21st-century concepts of self, mind, time and reality.  Act 1 - Chapter 12: The Digital & The Spaces Between http://linktr.ee/Infinitenow   #philosophy #metaphysics #hardproblem #consciousness #mindmatter #history #mind #science #physics #cosmos #cosmology #theology #deepthoughts #metaphysics of self

How does the self retain identity when it's in constant flux? In this episode, we conclude the second half of this investigation, discussing modern advancements in neuroscience that shape our understanding of this metaphysical Self and its ever-shifting nature.   In loving memory of Angelina Low.    Act 1 - Chapter 11: The Shifting Self (part 2) ht   #neurobiology #philosophy #metaphysics #hardproblem #consciousness #mindmatter #history #mind #science #physics #cosmos #cosmology #theology #deepthoughts #biology #brain anatomy #consciousness #neuroscience #cognative science #metaphysics of self

What happens when two minds govern the same brain? Do parasites dictate my identity? In this episode, we investigate the brain's influence over the metaphysical self and ask how it can be considered actual, given its ever-shifting nature.   Now Act 1 - Chapter 11: The Shifting Self http://linktr.ee/Infinitenow   #neurobiology #philosophy #metaphysics #hardproblem #consciousness #mindmatter #history #mind #science #physics #cosmos #cosmology #theology #deepthoughts #biology #brain anatomy #consciousness #neuroscience #cognative science #metaphysics of self

Chapter 10: In this episode, we investigate psychedelic research, neurobiology, meditation and its effects on the brain - all so that we can further unpick the fundamental nature of self and mortality. So, don the headphones, lay back, and take a pause in the crazy.  And be sure to check our weekly visualisations at: https://www.youtube.com/@InfiniteNow_withSeanCrowley http://linktr.ee/Infinitenow   #psychedelicresearch #nde #obe #dmt #psychedelicscience #buddhism #meditation #neurobiology #philosophy #metaphysics #hardproblem #consciousness #nuerobiology #mindmatter #history #mind #science #physics #cosmos #cosmology #theology #deepthoughts #biology #whatisdeath #meaningoflife #deepdive

Materialism or Idealism? What is reality's ultimate character? Matter, Mind or other? And perhaps more importantly, how should we be thinking about these questions and the answers we offer? Welcome to Unfoldings, a subseries designed to support our regular monthly 'Infinite Now' chapters. A chance to enable a deeper reflection upon some of the more nuanced philosophical and scientific concepts and also provides a place for our community to offer their thoughts, insights, and feedback.

Chapter 9: In this episode, we uncover the history behind mind-body dualism and ponder over the materialism of neuroscience.

Chapter 8: In this episode, we unfold the pillars of quantum mechanics—from superposition to wave-particle duality—and continue our ongoing inquiry into the physical self. So, don the headphones, lay back, and take that pause in the crazy while I meander through some of the many timeless riddles that have plagued humanity since we first looked up at the stars.  And be sure to check our weekly visualisations at: https://www.youtube.com/@InfiniteNow_withSeanCrowley http://linktr.ee/Infinitenow #quantum mechanics #quantum physics #physics #metaphysics #science #cosmos #cosmology #philosophy #physics #deepthoughts #theology #biology #whatisdeath #meaningoflife #deepdive #heisenberguncertainty #shroedingerscat
