Coherent Emergentism - A comprehensive new theory of reality
Posted: Wed Mar 12, 2025 12:58 pm
Hello everyone,
I am excited to share with you a theoretical framework I've been developing, called Coherent Emergentism. This theory seeks to address fundamental questions about the nature of reality, existence, and consciousness. The core propositions of Coherent Emergentism include:
Necessity of Existence: Reality exists because it is inherently necessary; "nothingness" is unstable and cannot persist.
Self-Organization: Reality organizes itself without external guidance, with coherent non-contradictory structures emerging naturally from fundamental interactions.
Emergence of Consciousness: Consciousness arises as a complex, emergent property of information-processing systems, particularly within neural networks.
Dynamic Coherence: While not all events are initially coherent, larger coherent entities emerge through interactions, aligning with the possibilities present at the quantum level.
I believe this theory offers a comprehensive perspective that bridges physics, philosophy, and cognitive science. I welcome your thoughts, critiques, and discussions on this framework.
Here is a link to the first article outlining the theory: https://zenodo.org/records/14981410
Links to the three additional ones can be found here: https://zenodo.org/search?q=metadata.cr ... =bestmatch
Looking forward to engaging with this community!
Best regards,
Max Tallberg
