Consciousness as memory encoder

[boomly]

Ah, ok.
Like dark matter. The only way we know how to uncover insights into matter is to subject it to experiments and close observation. How are we going to figure out dark matter if we're unsure if it's even a particle, let alone get it into a lab and subject it to experiments? If our brains were different, we might be able to immediately grasp what it was with a few observations?

On holarchy. All identification systems must need be holarchical (?)
All organizational systems must need be identification systems (?)
Therefore, all organizational systems are, at some level, holarchical (?)
When we look at an organizational system, like the mind, or brain, we can uncover insights into it's organization by determining how it identifies things.
But, of course, that's not the only way to gain insights into organizational systems (?)

See the system; do with the system; be the system; own the system; dissolve the system.

Lost in territory with nothing to identify or organize. As if the maps speak for themselves within the universal telos.

Hey, some actual scientists came up with a similar idea.

Even used some of the same language.
"If consciousness is a system for memory encoding and retrieval" (pg 26)
