Evolutionary Game Theory

Case against reality
   39:53 - object permanence
   42:50 - space-time & physical objects = VR?
   realm of infinite conscious agents
   network information theory (graph theory)

simulation hypothesis
our user interfaces = portals into consciousness
hack our interfaces to create new portals in the realm of existing conscious agents or create new consciousnesses - possible?

1:16:15 - 1:21:00
Gödel's Incompleteness Theorem
"there are truths that can't be proven"
"consciousness is the fundamental reality"
math && consciousness are intertwined as a unit

1:23:47
"Dogmatism gets in the way. Assuming that you know the answers means that if you happen to be wrong, you're stuck. And so it's best to hold our beliefs very very loosely. Have enthusiasm, but be open to being wrong. The point about science is to be precise so that you can find out precisely why you're wrong."

Integrated Information Theory (physicalism)

holographic principle

panpsychism, dualism

Pandora's Box - consciousness, hypnosis, dreams, AI, perceived reality, mortality, multiverse, ET

Avi Loeb: Is life out there? And are we ready for it?

▼ Lyrics

Burn 
I'm burning in my skin 
Can't get them out of my head 
Words 
These words you said to me
Stopped my heart, barely beating 

Now I'm stuck on repeat 
I can't sleep through this madness 
It’s madness 
Tame the fire or suffer to live in the ashes 
In the ashes.. 

That's what happens 
When Gasoline plays with Matches 
That's what happens, happens, happens 
[x2] 

Water 
I need this like water 
Hurt 
Surround ourselves in self-destruction 
Self-worth 
Need someone to come reconstruct it 
You know it, you got it bad 
And I got it, I got it bad 
We got it bad 
And now we're back to that feeling we never had 
Just pretend 
Catalyze my catatonic mind, give it life 
Until it burns too bright
Consume what little's left inside 
Under cover of night, put the past out of sight 
We both knew it wasn't right 

That's what happens 
When Gasoline plays with Matches 
That's what happens, happens, happens 
[x2] 

When Gasoline plays with Matches 
You get burned 
And we must wanna be hurt 
We must wanna be 
Burned [x6] 
We must wanna be 
Burned [x6] 
We must wanna be

It's been so long since I created glitch hop, what better way to return than with Danyka Nadeau on vocals.

Label: Monstercat
Release Date: 24th April 2018

Lyrics:
Send my heart into the sound,
slowly drifting into your arms.
It blows away in new directions,
it's your turn to know something that is real.
The milky way I feel your splendour,
you're the weakness that I've found.
It melts away into forever,
lesson learned and I know that it was real.
*you mustn't be frightened*

WRLD - Rooms (Essenger Remix)

When making this song I didn’t know what I wanted it to be really or the direction; I had just opened up my DAW and started playing around with this beautiful sound on my piano and decided to just record what I play. No quantization or structure in mind at first I just played how I felt and wanted to make myself feel chills and nostalgia. Instead of doing crazy layering or a crazy bass drop I thought it’d be nice to have a stripped down song easy to get lost in and just enjoy without any crazy technical sound design. After I added the second part with the drums and finished the song I decided to leave it as is and like I said it’s very stripped down and simple but it still made me feel so much, and now I catch myself enjoying minimalism rather than over layering or compensating in every aspect of my life. Instead of having too much to focus on why not have stand out pieces in your home, or those few pieces of clothing in your closet that fit whatever the occasion. Same thing with this song; having something bare and very sounds allowed me to concentrate on the “feeling” and that’s why I called it minimalism.

Minimalism

Joscha Bach is one of those rare people whose primary motivation is unbound curiosity and inspiration. He clearly loves what he does and you can’t help but notice his radiating passion and youthful exuberance. Joscha has an impressively wide and deep knowledge in a variety of scientific, philosophical and artistic disciplines and I had to do my best just to keep up with Bach’s brilliant fast-paced mind and stream of consciousness. I enjoyed our conversation immensely and hope you love it too.

During our 130-minute interview with Joscha Bach, we cover a variety of interesting topics such as: the space between academia and professorship; if organisms are algorithms, philosophy, and ethics; growing up in East Germany; science, art, evolution and the meaning of life; mathematics, computing and the limits thereof; the usefulness of useless knowledge; climate change and “the demise of humanity;” artificial intelligence and consciousness; why we are stories in a movie that the brain is creating, the difference between scholars and scientists…

Just some of my favorite quotes from Joscha Bach are:

“If you take this as a computer game metaphor, this is like the best level for humanity to play. And this best level happens to be the last level for humanity to play, as it happens against the backdrop of a dying world. But it’s still the best level.”

“Intelligence is the ability to make models. What is a model? A model is something that explains information. Information is discernable differences at your systemic interface. And the meaning of information is the relationships you discover to changes in other information.”

“Some people think that a simulation can’t be conscious and only a physical system can. But they got it completely backward: a physical system cannot be conscious only a simulation can be conscious. Consciousness is a simulated property of the simulated self.”

“The practice of AI is in a way statistics on steroids. It’s experimental statistics. It’s identifying new functions to model reality.”

✏️ Lyrics
We had a rough start
But I guess that my heart
Couldn’t sway hers
She caught me off guard
Though I’ve always been 
Cautious of strangers
It was never my intention
But I should’ve known better
Than to fall in love, oh
I’ve learned my lesson
So I’ll serve my sentence
But is that enough

Oh, is that enough
I said is that enough

I know we don’t talk
But it hasn’t quite stopped
Me from dreaming
We didn’t get far
But I’m still hanging on
To the feeling
For a moment I was special
But I should’ve known better
Than to fall in love, oh
I’ve still got questions
But I’ve learned my lesson
Love, is that enough

Oh, is that enough
I said is that enough

Is that enough, oh no
I said is that enough, no
Is that enough, oh no
Oh, am I enough, no

Enough

Mr FijiWiji & Matt Van - Enough

Can AI open new portals into consciousness and create new awarenesses? Why does the universe seem to have limited resources? What happens when we die? ARE WE LIVING IN THE MATRIX?

We have no clue how consciousness emerges from 3 pounds of wet goo. Cognitive scientist Don Hoffman takes us deep into his research suggesting we're attacking the problem backwards. The implications of his theories just may change everything you think you know about reality and our place in it. Take the Red Pill and see how deep the rabbit hole goes...

In this extended interview we dive into the Interface Theory of Perception (how evolution hides the truth about reality in favor of a dumbed down user interface that only shows us "fitness" payoffs that help us survive), the "Hard Problem of Consciousness" and how we simply have no idea how consciousness could emerge from physical matter, the theory of Conscious Realism (how reality is really a social network of conscious "agents" and our perceptions are simply the interface by which we exchange experience with other agents), the math behind conscious agent theory, implications  for artificial intelligence (AI), psychedelics, spirituality, and much much more.
