I'm 18, and I thought as I grew older I'd find more people who think how I think. But I found this to be painful optimism. This is the first video I see on the internet that seems to encompass the nature of how my mind digests thoughts and the interconnections between everything real and imaginary (not yet proved to be real). Thank you for sharing your pondering.
I hope you'll follow my future videos, as well. Previously my channel has mostly been travel and adventure videos chronicling my life and the lives of my friends who do so many amazing things. Philosophy has always been a deep passion of mine and I am now writing a whole series of videos that are along the lines of this one. I think you will particularly find the next one very thought provoking. It goes many layers deeper than this one.
I have a similar thought, that everything the human mind observes is a wave - whether it's sound, light, or wave-like patterns of neurons firing. In turn, we use waves to communicate waves to communicate with each other. Music is a collection of simpler waves combining to form more complicated waves, and influencing our emotions, which are consciousness-waves. We even speak of two human being being "on the same frequency". I like your multiple-domain memory theory. It applies to archaeology, geology, and cosmology as well!
Thanks for the love! I've had similar intuitions which I am hard at work trying to fully articulate through a lot of in depth research. I've read over 100 philosophy, psychology, and physics books in the last year and am finally at a point that I am writing content and preparing presentations for videos. I hope you have subscribed so you can get notifications for those videos. This next one particularly I believe you will find very interesting. It's continues off from this video and goes into the role of language in memory formation and how that led to the formation of an inner monologue, the voice we all have in our heads heard only by the individual and how that inner voice is the hallmark of what we call consciousness and gives rise to our feeling of free will. I still have a lot of reading to do before I can properly get into the in depth physics required to explain wave dynamics, but it is definitely something I am working toward.
@@VagabondMorrison Just subbed. I look forward to that video! I think you're totally right about language being the "language of consciousness" - and in fact it also applies to the voice of our inner monologue, i.e. talking to ourselves. We also reason through stories, which are events that have been coded into a language. I'd also love to know your thoughts as to non-human types of consciousness.
This is really great! Do you have it in text form so it is easier to digest? (I personally got a bit distracted by the music). I would love to be able to read it somewhere. You're onto something, for sure.
I do, but I'm not sure how I could share it here where there are limitation of the length of characters I can leave in a comment. You can follow me on Facebook (@vagabondmorrison) where I always share transcriptions of my videos.
Loved the water analogy and the way nature has physical records of "the path of least resistance" so would this mean that our colective is the path of least resistance of psychology and if so what ultimately is the resistance in the system, what is the universe optimizing for?
The resistance in the system exists at many levels and cannot be defined by a single parameter. Everything that we can observe exists and is defined by its polarities: up vs down, hot vs cold, love vs hate, and so on. We can't even describe a thing without the poarity of its opposite. You can't describe what soft means without comparing it to something hard. So ultimately, within this framework of polarities all things atempt to find equilibrium. That is essentially the laws of thermodynamics; but, If there is too much love, peace and prosperity then there is no challenge to overcome and everything stops and becomes a steady state until some kind of conflict rises up to get things moving again.

Thank you, I'm flattered!

Even TH-cam has "channels".
Indeed!
