Referring to the PNAS article "Do not go gently into that good night: The dying brain and its paradoxically heightened electrical activity". https://www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pnas.2305985120?utm_source=nautilus-newsletter&utm_medium=email&he=fa35e05376126a72b9c703cec5c60eee
Could it be that, at a scale billions of times less than the size of a subatomic particle, the brain and the rest of the universe (including space and time themselves) are composed of nanoscale electric impulses? Their presence and absence - their "on" and "off" states – would account for the brain/universe being composed of the binary digits of 1 and 0 used in electronics. Then the end-of-life EEG surges might be the brain's reaction to discovering that death is merely transition from the Earthly life we're familiar with to another phase of existence. This continuation of consciousness wouldn't be restricted to an individual brain but would be of a universal nature. If physicists' hoped-for Theory of Everything eventuates, this post-death consciousness would be linked to everything in both space and time.
In March last year, I posted a preprint on the science website Zenodo which goes into detail about the above paragraph. The preprint’s called “New Perspectives On Life, Death, Cancer and Covid-19 Arising From An Artificially Intelligent, Non-probabilistic Universe” and is located at https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.6342474 Present science might instantly dismiss notions of a cosmos that possesses AI and modifies the Uncertainty Principle of quantum mechanics – whatever happened to the idea that everything should be able to be questioned?
