A set of preprints drawn from years of reading across psychology, philosophy, religion and physics, exploring what consciousness might be — and, more recently, how the structure of physical reality itself might emerge from the simplest possible measurement. Most papers remain in preprint form and are open for discussion.
1) A wave model of interaction between the psyche and environment
This paper proposes a wave model of interaction between the psyche or the subconscious of a human being and the environment over the course of a lifetime. It also shows how this wave model could be a roadmap with a final goal for a human life. By using the metaphors of waves, it compares different psychological processes of healing with the model. Finally, the connection of the model to religious traditions, philosophies and societal elements is also explored.

2) Qualia As Field: A Panpsychist Approach To The Hard Problem Of Consciousness
This paper explores an alternative metaphysical model for addressing the Hard Problem of Consciousness. Drawing on panpsychism, quantum metaphysics, and the notion of qualia as fundamental, this perspective suggests that consciousness emerges not solely from neural computation, but from dynamic interactions within an infinite, foundational field of pure experience — the qualia field. This model treats physical reality as a probabilistic expression of this field, with subjective experience arising through structured interference patterns. By situating this field within a framework inspired by quantum state space, the proposal offers a non-reductive, integrative path for understanding consciousness as ontologically primary rather than emergent.

3) The Big Reflect — the universe as a wave in a boundary, experiencing itself
This paper introduces "The Big Reflect," a multidisciplinary framework that proposes that the universe originates from a single, self-experiencing unified wave principle. Through self-reflection and interference within a static boundary of "nothingness," this wave creates all existence. The model synthesizes concepts from sacred geometry, religious cosmologies (e.g., Nada Brahma, Spanda, Logos), and modern physics theories (Wave Structure of Matter, CPT-Symmetry, Holographic Principle) into a cohesive structure. Conceptual wave-in-boundary simulations are explored to visually demonstrate how this interference naturally leads to a universe that is both fractal and holographic, suggesting a cyclic or toroidal structure. Furthermore, the framework posits consciousness as the fundamental nature of this nothingness-wave continuum, with all entities, including humans, arising as distinct harmonics. The resulting cosmology offers a perspective that is deterministic at the absolute level, yet compatibilist at the human level, where the experience of free will is a vital, local illusion within an interdependent cosmos.

4) The Nameless framework — three papers on the structure of physical reality
Three papers grown from a long experimental conversation with an AI (Claude, by Anthropic) on a single idea: that the geometry of the most basic quantum system — a single qubit — might already contain the structure of the physical world. Starting from two simple statements about measurement, the framework derives the strong nuclear force, the weak force, electromagnetism, three generations of matter, the geometry of spacetime, the Higgs mechanism, mass ratios and a candidate for dark matter — all matching experiment with no adjustable parameters. The decisive test is the JUNO neutrino experiment, expected to reach full precision around 2030.
Each paper is on Zenodo with a permanent DOI: Paper 1, Paper 2, Paper 3. The accompanying interactive artwork lives at Nameless.
These writings are based on years of explorations into psychology, philosophy, spiritual and religious traditions, and physics. Books and articles on panpsychism, cosmopsychism, compatibilism, emptiness concepts, mysticism, qualia, meditation and psychology have inspired this work.
