Quanta and Qualia [PDF]

open access: yesFoundations of Physics, 2018

open access: yesSystems Research and Behavioral Science, Volume 43, Issue 1, Page 78-82, January/February 2026.
ABSTRACT The short essay makes a case that a post biological world will be a devolution.

The voiceless need to be protected by extending solidarity on the basis of sentience—a normative plea, but also on the basis of ...

Why Cognitive Science Needs Phenomenology: Rethinking the Epistemology of Consciousness Through Intuitive Dualism

open access: yesJournal for the Theory of Social Behaviour, Volume 55, Issue 4, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Cognitive science needs phenomenology, not despite, but because of the epistemic challenges posed by consciousness. This article argues that the pervasive presence of intuitive dualism, the empirical cognitive tendency to distinguish the mental from physical, is a widespread and entrenched feature of human experience.

I outline and develop a particular physicalist perspective on qualia, and suggest that it may be the basis of a correct account of the relationship of mental states to the physical world.\ud \ud Assume that a quale is a perspective on a physical state in
