So what exactly is conscioussness? Does meaning exist independently from it and I discover it or is it an attribute assigned by conscious entities? I think that meaning is independent from energy, entropy, or anything else. An arrangement of atoms can be selected with no change in entropy to maximize meaning to me that it energetically equivalent to many other arrangements.
Also what do you make of sub-conscious and super-conscious? It seems to me that the conscious experience is just an interface sitting between the physical world and the whole psyche and self. A lot of that psyche sits behind a veil and comes out in uncontrolled ways. Or maybe the whole psyche is controlling our conscioussness in ways we don't really perceive.
What if consciousness is not a byproduct of matter — instead matter is a manifestation within consciousness.
