Introducing Carl

Carl has been working on the scientific problem of consciousness since he was a teenager, when he was impressed by some experiences with psychoactive substances.

He took the tack that seemed most sensible: study science - biology and chemistry in particular - and work with teachers who seemed to have knowledge of a satisfying sort.

That tack worked well and it led him to insights and conclusions that should be both of general interest and of interest to specialists.

The primary conclusion he’s reached is that conversation is probably the key to getting a positive (tested, verified) and perhaps definitive theory of consciousness.

The important (and astonishing) point to consider here is there exists as yet no positive theory of conversation. None of our sciences has one, but conversation is arguably the most pervasive and the most fundamental natural element in the whole of human experience.

What we want to do with this website is introduce what we think the right theory of conversation is and consider it with people intrigued by it.

The scope of the undertaking is broad. It will involve public relations of several sorts including this website and a YouTube channel, coordinated capital management, behaviorally-oriented scientific laboratories and the stepwise development and deployment of a superintelligent conversation engine.

Cooperating with us will require open-mindedness and persistence, but the outcomes promise to be important.
