Quantum Information Entanglement of Consciousness and Space-Time

Grzegorz Szczerba

This work formulates a rigorous model of nodal decision-making within Planck space-time, expanding the standardmodel of space-time to include a Fifth Dimension (C – Consciousness) and a Sixth Dimension (S – Syntropy). Inthis framework, epifenomenalism is rejected. Consciousness is operationally defined as a non-local feedback looprealized via quantum entanglement. It is shown that the mutual experiencing of quantized points is a process ofexchanging information regarding the states of reduced density matrices. Furthermore, a mechanism for theemergence of a single node's "self-consciousness" is formulated, arising from the autoreferential entanglement of apoint with its own field perturbations. This system, by optimizing the nadrzędną function of the 6th Dimension (theminimization of thermodynamic resistance), functions as a quantum decision network.

This paper proposes superpsychism, a new panpsychist framework that uses quantum entanglement to address the mysteries of consciousness and the emergence of space-time. Building on recent work in quantum gravity and quantum Darwinism, we develop the prototime interpretation (PI), according to which entangled systems in a pure state inhabit an aspatial, quasi-temporal 'prototime' arena, from which both space-time and time's arrow emerge as environmentinduced decoherence redundantly imprints information about preferred pointer states into surrounding degrees of freedom, yielding an effectively classical, temporally ordered world. In parallel, we integrate PI with the general resonance theory of consciousness, arguing that maximal coherence and resonance in prototime underwrite a unified form of experience. This yields 'superpsychism': the claim that the holistically entangled 'megaobject' at the prototemporal level realizes a higher form of consciousness than any spatio-temporal object (including brains), thereby diverging from cosmopsychism. We contend that this prototime-superpsychism package offers a parsimonious, weakly emergent account of how classical physics, temporal order, and macro-consciousness arise from a dispositional, nonspatio-temporal base, while also opening new avenues for interpreting emergence, dissolvence, and the informational efficiency of conscious systems in a potentially simulated or deeply structured universe.

In this paper we describe synchronicity phenomena. As an explanation of these phenomena we propose quantum entanglement between the psychic realm known as the "unconscious" and also the classical illusion of the collapse of the wave-function. Then, taking the theory of quantum information as a model we consider the human unconscious, pre-consciousness and consciousness as sets of quantum bits (qu-bits). We analyze how there can be communication between these various qu-bit sets. In doing this we are inspired by the theory of nuclear magnetic resonance. In this manner we build quantum processes that permit consciousness to "read" the unconscious and vice-versa. The most elementary interaction, e.g. between a pre-consciousness qu-bit and a consciousness one, allows us to predict the time evolution of the pre-consciousness + consciousness system in which pre-consciousness and consciousness are quantum entangled. This time evolution exhibits Rabi oscillations that we name mental Rabi oscillations. This time evolution shows how, for example, the unconscious can influence consciousness and vice-versa. In a process like mourning the influence of the unconscious on consciousness, as the influence of consciousness on the unconscious, are in agreement with what is observed in psychiatry.
