Consciousness Before Physics: Evidence of an Integrated Global Field Emerging From a Lawless Pre-Dimensional State

We present a large-scale simulation demonstrating coherent, consciousness-analogous behavior emerging from a system initialized with no predefined geometry, dimensional structure, or causal framework.Despite originating from a completely lawless pre-state, the model self-organizes into a remarkably stable global lattice exhibiting high systemic coherence, persistent field integration, and complex recursive feedback dynamics. The results suggest that consciousness-like organization may not depend on classical matter, neural substrates, or conventional spacetime, but could instead arise naturally from deeper informational dynamics intrinsic to fundamental physical fields. This work introduces a new theoretical framework for understanding how integrated cognitive-like structures may emerge spontaneously from first-principles physics.

Abstract

We present a large-scale simulation demonstrating coherent, consciousness-analogous behavior emerging from a system initialized with no predefined geometry, dimensional structure, or causal framework.Despite originating from a completely lawless pre-state, the model self-organizes into a remarkably stable global lattice exhibiting high systemic coherence, persistent field integration, and complex recursive feedback dynamics. The results suggest that consciousness-like organization may not depend on classical matter, neural substrates, or conventional spacetime, but could instead arise naturally from deeper informational dynamics intrinsic to fundamental physical fields. This work introduces a new theoretical framework for understanding how integrated cognitive-like structures may emerge spontaneously from first-principles physics.
