Abstract

FINDING: Panpsychism debates center on whether consciousness is fundamental physics, but no quantitative mathematical formalism or empirical constant emerges from these sources. | MATH: None extracted — no equations, constants, or ratios appear in the cited material; only qualitative philosophical arguments (e.g., Goff's "phenomenology has a scientific dimension," Faggin's quantum-information proposal). | CONNECTION: No geometric harmony, base-60, or crystallographic symmetry is present; the only implicit structure is the binary opposition (materialism vs. panpsychism) — not a mathematical symmetry. | DEPTH: 2 — The sources are philosophical advocacy and interviews, not mathematical derivations; they offer no testable equations or constants, and the quantum-information claim by Faggin/D'Ariano is not formalized in the provided excerpts. Author: Andrew Stewart Caldin, Independent Researcher, UK. Part of the E8 Intelligence Research series. Platform: e8intelligence.com
