Higher consciousness

to allow Tuvix to live as two in one, or to separate him back into the original state. I would advise the captain to separate him. This is because the mind/brain is a complex thing that contributes to our personal identity through consciousness as far as the consciousness can be extended back in time according to Locke. Though while it would be interesting to see the operation of two men as one it doesn’t seem to be the best idea. This is because Mr. Neelix has the memory of two men, which…

Envision a world where we couldn’t see anybody's physical appearance, no skin, bone or organ. What would we see internally beneath the barriers of flesh and cell? Would we see an ego different from ourselves or a substance exactly the same? How can we know the answer to this question when we can’t even assess the differences because we are so attached to our own egos. In Homer’s, The Odyssey, Odysseus embarks on a journey from the city of Troy, back to his home in Ithaca. Odysseus consistently…

The soul is an important issue present in the Platonic texts The Meno and Phaedrus; each one has similarities and differences from each other, which are going to be present in the following paper. I’ll develop the text by explaining how both texts have views on the conception of the soul, the conception of the soul seems to be based on the same foundation yet it differs in certain key ways. Looking at certain similarities, first I’m going to explain how in both texts the soul is immortal, then I…

Have individuals wondered what happen to the mind when doing various activities such as walking, sleeping or even watching a movie? And do individuals really aware of the surroundings while doing so? These questions can be answered by Freud’s Theory. Freud described the characteristics of mind’s structure and function using a topographical model. According to Freud, there are three stages of awareness in human mind such as conscious, subconscious and unconscious. The least region in Freud’s…

#1 - Introduction Artificial Intelligence In the present, are mind boggling and viable however no place close human knowledge. People utilize the information exhibit around them and the information gathered in the past to make sense of everything without exception. In any case, AIs don't have that capacity right now. AIs simply immense information dumps to clear their goals. This implies AIs require a colossal pool of information to accomplish something as straightforward as altering letters.…

Like the space Derrida speaks of in his notion of text, Quentin’s section draws us into a space where there are no boundaries between the real and the fictive, the present and the past, and the external world and the internal world of mind. Derrida’s reading of Blanchot’s “La folie du jour” reveals how the text eclipses the clear divisions between what comes before and what after and what is in the text and what outside, by the narrative’s self-repeating process. Incidentally, Derrida argues…

One can only access the viewpoint of another from within one’s own horizon. This relationship between ‘one’ and ‘the other’ which, in Gadamer’s philosophy makes understanding possible, is what has been examined by other philosophers as well. Emmanuel Levinas considered this relationship known by him as ‘the face-to-face’ relationship, as “the heart of life [that] is found not in knowing yourself but in your relation to the Other.” (Theory for Performance Studies, Philip Auslander, p. 129) The…

In order to understand the mechanical character of Descartes’ physiology it is necessary to establish, firstly, that he considers the human body as a material substance, different from the soul, though connected with it. This distinction has been called classically ‘dualism’. In his Meditations, Descartes argues that the meditator recognizes herself as a thinking substance: ‘But what am I? A thing that thinks. What is that? A thing that doubts, understands, affirms, denies, is willing, is…

The problem of scepticism comes to the conclusion that we do not know of our creation or existence, nor can we know. This assignment will dispute against scepticism in reference to the “Brain in a Vat” argument. This proposes that we are brains in vats which are connected up to an exceptionally sophisticated life force, in this case a computer, that somehow has the ability to counterfeit our experiences of the external world, deceiving us of what we thought to be reality. This argument…

Equilibrioception is the sense of balance and a process that takes place within the body. Balance is maintained by the human body during both normal posture and movements. Thus, equilibrioception is a continuous process that takes place unconsciously in the body for the most part. This procedure requires the input of information from the vestibular, visual and proprioceptive systems. Motor output is relayed through two separate pathways in response to the integration of the information. Thus,…
