The Architecture of Consciousness: Molecular Mechanisms and Systemic Integration

This paper proposes a model of consciousness formation based on the principles of molecular biology and evolutionary economy. Since direct in vivo observation of synaptic fixation processes is limited by technical and ethical constraints, a method of extrapolating known mechanisms of chemical recording is applied. The hypothesis asserts that sensory experience, interaction with the external environment, and primary reflexes are fixed in the nervous system according to a universal principle of protein synthesis, analogous to immune response mechanisms. The model describes the formation of consciousness from primary chemical records to self- referentiality without introducing additional entities, and offers a deterministic interpretation of behavior.

Abstract

This paper proposes a model of consciousness formation based on the principles of molecular biology and evolutionary economy. Since direct in vivo observation of synaptic fixation processes is limited by technical and ethical constraints, a method of extrapolating known mechanisms of chemical recording is applied. The hypothesis asserts that sensory experience, interaction with the external environment, and primary reflexes are fixed in the nervous system according to a universal principle of protein synthesis, analogous to immune response mechanisms. The model describes the formation of consciousness from primary chemical records to self- referentiality without introducing additional entities, and offers a deterministic interpretation of behavior.
