Event overview
How Unique Motions in Biology Fit into the Physical Sciences.
To be complete, biophysics must include the unique effect of our senses and mind. Our sensations and thoughts produce motions that defy simple physics. To support these motions I propose a novel basis of experience, one equal in status to gravitation and light.
In a fluid environment, this biophysical basis allows a holomorphic shaping upon the surface of flexible closed structure (cells and membranes) allowing the formation of sense/response hyperfunctors. This approach enables the mathematization of sense, thought, and memory, with covariant response potentials.
A particular shape in the biophysical structure is a particular sensation, thought, or memory that covaries with the response.
Physical law is algebraically covariant and so we may extend from this mathematical view of biology, including sensation and thought, to a unified cosmology, successfully including biology in the physical sciences.
In the twentieth-century, physical science has not allowed for these deliberate or automatic motions in biophysics. It has explicitly excluded the motion between a simple sensation or considered intention and response.
If we look at physiology in terms of conventional physics we can only account for some motions but not broad allosteric motions that lead to complex behavior. We are coming to understand biochemistry, but there is nothing in known physical science that allows an exact account of these unique motions, motions that are the consequence of sensation or the mind.
Taking such an approach also suggests a new model of computation, one that leads to the engineering of machines-that-experience.
