Is consciousness more fundamental to reality than quantum physics?

[HiggsField29]

This is a big one for the foundations crowd. The article looks at the idea that conscious experience may not just be something produced by matter, but something more basic in the structure of reality. It is the sort of claim that needs careful testing, but it could make for a great debate about where physics ends and philosophy begins.

Interesting, but I want to see testable predictions before getting too excited

This sounds more like philosophy than physics to me, but it is still worth discussing

If consciousness is fundamental, quantum theory may only be part of the story

Feels bold, but these are exactly the questions science should not ignore

I don't know about that. Fair enough really.
