1000 Followers, Thank You! Giving Away 3 Books on Consciousness

Feeling Grateful

To celebrate I will give away 3 copies of Tononi’s PHI book to the best comments on Consciousness! It’s my favorite book and I hope to share that with someone.

Tononi’s book is a beautiful exposition on The Nature of Consciousness, and includes his Integrated Information Theory of Consciousness (IIT). The IIT respects pre-theoretical intuitions about consciousness, such as its subjective informativeness and unity (identity).

It also aspires to mathematical maturity, through a quantitative and qualitative measure of consciousness Tononi calls “Φ” (“phi”). The circle in ‘Φ’ is represents the diversity of experience, while the line represents the unity in that diversity (reminiscent of the ‘yinyang’ symbol).

To get a chance to get one of the three books just give a comment on what consciousness means to you, and I will select three winners in a week who get the book sent home!

Consciousness is just existence to me, becoming increasingly more complex and sophisticated.

Consciousness is the state of being aware of and in sync with the intangible. When you advance your consciousness, you are in tuned with the universe. It's a beautiful thing.

Great article, thank you for sharing. Love spirituality, and just got into crypto recently myself. Followed and upvoted!

Consciousness is life. Life without consciousness is not life. Simple.

I have never read these books but lets give it a try
and congrats on 1000 followers @clains

For me consciousness is allowed to improve every day because thanks to it we can judge the actions that we commit.

Just curious, since you are also in bitcoin blockchain and you discussed about consciousness. In the future, do you think uploading our mind (conciousness) into a blockchain technology is a possibility?

In this case we know that there is only one consciousness moving in the blocklist network.

By the way @clains I watched most of Youtube videos, I'm still learning.

Deserve my vote up and followed you too.

Follow me @yehey
Thank you.

Congrats! Thanks for doing this. Consciousness is the ability to magnify your self understanding to gain universal perspective.
