Constructive approach to bidirectional influence between qualia structure and language emergence
Philosophy and the Mind SciencesThis perspective paper explores the bidirectional influence between language emergence and the relational structure of subjective experiences, termed qualia structure, and lays out a constructive approach to the intricate dependency between the two.

The Feeling of Weight: A Structural Theory of Qualia
This paper extends the Persistence Premise framework to address the hard problem of consciousness. We propose that feeling—qualia—is the phenomenological correlate of structural load under conditions of reflexive monitoring. Within any finite self-referential system, the Work of Coherence (Wc) required to maintain integrity against internal ...
