&#160;

Bertrand Russell on limitations of science

&#160;

it only describes the REALTIONSHIPS of objects and

NOT THEIR INTRINSIC NATURE ir INTRINSIC properties.

&#160;

So, &#160;on this view &#160;CONSC may be part of that INTRINSIC nature of physical objects

and we experience it directly in the mind.

&#160;

On this view, &#160;the Universe may have &#160;pan proto consc &#160;(a la &#160;Chalmers) but

not detailed images, experience, detailed qualia, etc. &#160;&#160;which require finely articulated brains.

&#160;

He &#160;really recommends &#160;Herb Feigel's 1950's book on &#160;Mind to me.
