Mathematics has nothing to do with Consciousness.
Mathematics is guiding order in physics. Thought is an emergent result of mathematical neural complexity, Neural patterns
What is the Physical mathematics of Neural Activities?
What are the physical mathematics of an electrical network? IMO, these systems have some common denominators.
Consciousness is separate but Correlated with Neural Activities and it is not currently measurable by any known method.
Consciousness is an emergent property from neural activity which is separate and above the properties of the neurons themselves. And yes, of course it is correlated to neurons. It stems from neural patterns and activities.
Consciousness is not Immeasurable, Science just does not know how to measure it yet.
Exactly! And if it is measurable it must have measurable properties, a pattern.
"Associated With" or more properly "Correlated With" is a different concept than "Emergent From". Consciousness does not need to "Emerge From Neural Activity to be Correlated with Neural Activity.
Consciousness emerges from neural activity patterns. It is an emergent property which becomes an independent state of self-awareness . (Descartes brain in a vat)
Consciousness emerges from neural excitation. Experiential Self-Awareness is an evolved separate conscious property of neural excitation in the brain.
If it was not physical in origin it would not be measurable, no?
Just as the eye is an evolved light sensitive patch, vision is an evolved cognitive translative ability of the brain . (see microtubule thread)
According to Anil Seth, the brain is a prediction engine. It can only process what it "knows" (memory) and believes exists. The brain projects an expected reality and correlates it with incoming sensory data. He calls it a "controlled hallucination". When something goes wrong the brain may create "uncontrolled hallucinations" and is unable to produce a coherent self-aware experience.
I think we are not that far apart. Perhaps it is a question of hierarchical order of emergence, a "what came first" question , Consciousness or Self-aware Consciousness?
When does consciousness begin, when does it become self-aware?
Is a Paramecium conscious or self-aware? It's cilia respond to kinetic perturbation. At what stage does "reactive" self-referential sensory response become "actively directed" self-aware sensory response? Choice!
When self-aware consciousness allows for choice of responses (intelligence), don't we call that Free Will?
