I'm sure you're as capable of intellectual discussion on the topic as anyone. I'm no expert and have zero formal training in any field. Like many of us, what I do have is the motivation to perpetually learn.
Michael Levin is great! Thanks for sharing all these great resources.
When I find some time, I want to put together a Python model/visualization that simulates some examples. Either way though, the part that makes this "fun" is just exploring the bounds of the universe and consciousness from the confines of my own mind. I have a feeling such activities are on some level what the universe 'wants itself' (us) to do. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
