  • When Erwin Schrödinger in 1944 investigated the
    question What is Life? little was known about
    collective behavior of individuals and particles
    at the small and at the large scale.
  • Schrödinger believed that knowing the smallest
    part will give information on the whole.
  • This method, used by traditional science, is
    called reductionism.

4
  • During the twentieth century new insights into
    the behavior of complex dynamical systems
    propelled scientists to develop whole new
    branches of science. Science began to study
    emergent properties.
  • General Theory of Relativity
  • Quantum Mechanics
  • Chaos Theory

5
  • Today we have
  • Holism
  • System Theory,
  • Cybernetics
  • Science of Complexity
  • Interdisciplinary Research became popular

6
  • Holism assumed that the whole had more to offer
    than the sum of its parts,
  • System theory proposed to investigate the nature
    of systems
  • Emergentism took aim at the emergent properties
    of a system on its way to greater complexity.
  • Theory of Complexity dealt with emergent
    properties of a dynamical system.
  • Downward Causation tried to account for
    restraints put on individuals by the whole.

7
  • Today we should have a better understanding of
    how complexity might be the source of
    sophisticated new and dynamic properties such as
    consciousness or life. But do we?

8
  • One can only wonder why the physics of
    cooperative phenomena and self-organization in
    open, non-equilibrium systems is ignored.
  • 1 J. A. Scott Kelso and Hermann Haken,
    Synergetics of brain and behavior, in What is
    Life? The next fifty years. 1995 Pgs 137 160.

9
  • I first learned of Wholeness as an aesthetic
    function
  • Theodore W. Adorno described the transition of a
    piece of art from the level of disconnectedness
    to the level of wholeness as a qualitative
    transition. (qualitativer Umschlag)
  • The dialectical triad for instance produces such
    a qualitative transition.

10
  • The dialectical model was a first
    conceptualization of a collective process that
    today is called phase transition by physicists
    and bifurcation by system theorists.
  • a bifurcation occurs when a small change made to
    a system causes a sudden 'qualitative' change in
    its long-term dynamical behavior.

11
  • This model might be useful as an explanation or a
    visualization of qualitative advance of natural
    systems.
  • When a certain critical mass or threshold is
    reached the system changes rapidly. (for example
    water turns to ice)

12
  • The biologist Stuart Kauffman emphasized the
    importance of collective dynamics in the
    emergence of life.
  • The ultimate source of order and
    self-reproduction may lie in the emergence of
    collectively ordered dynamics in complex chemical
    reaction systems.

13
  • . . . development and evolution, while requiring
    the stability of organic molecules, may also
    require emergent ordered properties in the
    collective behavior of complex, non-equilibrium
    chemical reaction systems.
  • Kauffman

14
  • Such complex reaction systems can spontaneously
    cross a threshold, or phase transition, beyond
    which they become capable of collective
    self-reproduction, evolution, and exquisitely
    ordered dynamical behavior. The ultimate sources
    of the order requisite for lifes emergence and
    evolution may rest on new principles of
    collective emergent behavior in far from
    equilibrium reaction systems. Kauffman, What is
    Life? Was Schrödinger right? pg. 84.

15
  • Today scientists everywhere are looking for some
    universal principles, fundamental rules that
    shape all complex adaptive systems. Roger Lewin,
    Complexity at the Edge of Chaos (New York,
    McMillan 1992)
  • Could such collective behavior also be behind the
    as of now insufficiently explained phenomenon of
    Macro evolution?

16
  • I call such collective emergent behavior
    Collective Orchestration
  • Collective orchestration describes a system of
    evolutionary advance that as of now has not been
    fully explored.

17
Hypothesis Collective Orchestration
  • Collective Orchestration is synchronized behavior
    of otherwise independently existing individuals
    for the purpose of achieving tasks that are not
    achievable by each individual in separation.
  • Through Collective Orchestration individuals
    collaborate to achieve a qualitatively higher
    state of existence.

18
Question Would this be purposeful behavior or
intent?
  • Fact Living things, even as low as bacteria, do
    collaborate

19
  • Recent studies of microorganisms have revealed
    diverse complex social behaviors, including
    cooperation in foraging, building, reproducing,
    dispersing and communicating. These
    microorganisms should provide novel, tractable
    systems for the analysis of social evolution.

    Behavior in Microorganisms in trends Ecol.Evo.

20
For Example the dictyostelium a one-cell organism
  • when a qualified number of dictyostelia
    experience a deficiency in food and space they
    collectively form one large multi-celled organism
    with head, tail, and digestive system.
  • Each cell takes over a specific function within
    the new organism. They group together to achieve
    certain goals that they could not achieve by
    themselves.

22
  • Some of these bacteria have been observed to
    undergo programmed death or suicide in an
    attempt to provide food for the remaining
    bacteria or to build the outer layer of the new
    structure.
  • What is the source of such social behavior ?
  • No observable DNA in the original units. They are
    identical.
  • Yet, at the moment of unification they seem to
    know and perhaps even choose their places.

23
  • These one-cell creatures even seem to know when
    they have reached the right number before they go
    into action.
  • Knowing this critical number is called quorum
    sensing.

24
  • Cooperative behavior and synchronicity is also
    found in the molecular and even in the quantum
    world.

25
  • Traditional explanations are unable to fully
    account for these cooperative phenomena
    especially when they occur in the inorganic
    world.

26
  • In their descriptions of the quantum world
    physicists often use terms such as choosing or
    being excited.
  • Generally they are quick to assure that their
    descriptive terms are just that language

27
  • The Science of Synergetics has developed models
    of collective behavior among non-sentient
    particles.
  • In the world of dead things order develops
    seemingly out of nowhere, as J. A. Scott Kelso
    and Hermann Haken observed.
  • In the language of Synergetics these ordering
    principles in open dynamical systems are called
    control parameters.

28
  • Says Kelso and Haken As this control parameter
    increases, an amazing event called an instability
    occurs. The liquid begins to move microscopically
    in an orderly rolling motion. The system is no
    longer a haphazard collection of randomly moving
    molecules billions of molecules cooperate to
    create macroscopic patterns evolving in space and
    time.
  • 1 J. A. Scott Kelso and Hermann Haken,
    Synergetics of brain and behavior, in What is
    Life? The next fifty years. Pgs 137 160.

29
  • The system is no longer random.
  • Instead it is now governed by a set of control
    parameters.
  • Synergetics sees this as a loss of freedom.

30
  • According to the rules of thermodynamics, a
    random system allows a higher degree of freedom,
    or unpredictability, than a more ordered system.
  • Haken therefore calls this emerging order the
    slaving principle.

31
  • But within the same paragraph Haken contradicts
    himself and speaks of that rich behavioral
    complexity resulting from it. pg. 143.
  • The ordered system is capable to achieve
    completely new tasks.

32
  • What Haken calls a decrease in freedom, is
    actually an increase in degrees of freedom when
    seen from a different perspective.
  • Hakens description of this occurrence as a
    slaving principle is wrong.

33
  • Compare a fascist military that moves in lockstep
    with a democratically operating spiritual
    community where individuals freely cooperate to
    achieve some tasks.
  • From the outside both may appear working like a
    machine, but while one experiences a loss of
    freedom, the other finds in their cooperation new
    spiritual heights.

34
  • The difference here is self-organization.
  • The fascist army is by definition directed from
    the top down,
  • the spiritual community may be a self-organizing
    group.
  • In the top down mode the slaving principle is
    self evident.

35
  • According to traditional science, the non- living
    universe is random, intention-less, accidental.
  • Particles follow the laws of nature, foremost the
    Second Law of Thermodynamics, blindly.
  • One could say that laws enslave them.
    Traditionally the only other option is an outside
    force, a dictator, or god. This is why
    philosophers have called nature the realm of
    necessity. (das Reich der Notwendigkeit.)

36
  • But in dynamical systems, the emergence of
    pattern and pattern switching arises solely as a
    result of the cooperative dynamics of the system
    with no specific ordering influence from the
    outside and no homunculus-like agent or program
    inside.
  • The control parameter is non-specific, that is,
    it does not prescribe or contain the code for the
    emergent pattern which is said to be a product of
    self-organization.

37
  • To illustrate this emerging synergistic order
    Kelso and Haken give the following examples
  • vortex formation in a Taylor Couette system,
  • the onset of coherent laser light,
  • the formation of concentration patterns in
    certain chemical reactions such as the
    Belousev-Zhabotinski reaction,
  • and the so-called Turing instability which has
    served, with limited success, as a model for
    morphogenesis. (the study of biological shapes
    and forms)

38
  • All these systems and many more are the result of
  • self-organization.

39
  • Says Kelso and Haken In self-organizing
    systems, there is no deus ex machina, no ghost in
    the machine ordering the parts. No self in
    fact.
  • The same is true for most chemical systems.

40
  • Kauffman compares the phenomenon of
    self-organizing sets of molecules with the
    formation of crystals. Selforganizing phase
    transition happens everywhere.

41
  • Kauffman asserts
  • The phase transition theory I have outlined
    suggests that sufficiently complex systems of
    catalytic polymers should crystallize
    connected, collectively autocatalytic webs of
    reactions as an emergent, spontaneous property,
    without the chemists intelligent design of the
    web structure. Kauffman, pg. 96

42
  • An autocatalytic system is a self-organizing
    system in which all parts communicate with each
    other.
  • The pages of a book or a garbage pile are often
    called system, but they are not autocatalytic.

43
Proposal Panpsychism
44
Panpsychism
  • I propose to adopt the philosophy of Panpsychism

45
(No Transcript)
46
  • Panpsychism solves the phenomenon of
    self-organization in the inanimate world

47
  • Panpsychism is the accepted view of all primal
    people and most non-Western traditions.

48
  • Panpsychism is the view that the whole world,
    including the inanimate world, is permeated with
    some level of mind or consciousness.
  • This view has alternately been called
    panpsychism, panexperientialism, or quantum
    animism.

49
  • According to pan-psychism, awareness and life do
    not start at the level of one-cell organisms,
    animals, or even only with human beings, but a
    rudimentary level of awareness exists at the
    deepest level of the material world.

50
All things have mind
  • . . . the view that all things have a mind, or a
    mind-like quality has been held by a
    surprisingly large number of the greatest
    thinkers in the history of western civilization.
    ..virtually throughout the whole of the past 2500
    years. Even in the modern era of philosophy
    (since 1500 CE), one finds nearly three dozen
    major philosophers advocating some variation on
    the panpsychist theme. . . Clearly these
    individuals found something compelling about
    panpsychism. David Skrbina in JCS

51
Panpsychism hallmark of anti-mechanistic
worldview.
  • . . . panpsychism has much to offer even beyond
    the confines of academic philosophy. It is not
    only a viable alternative conception of mind, but
    it promises to realign our thinking toward a more
    compassionate and ecological outlook on nature.

52
  • Certainly one of the contributing factors to our
    present environmental (and some would add,
    spiritual) crisis is an entrenched system of
    mechanistic values Skrbina Panpsychism in the
    West, (Cambridge, MAS. MIT Press, 2005)

53
Panpsychism A solution to Spiritual Crisis
  • A panpsychic world view can serve as the
    conceptual framework for a new system of
    sympathetic and ecological values, one that may
    form a new basis for action. Scrbina

54
  • In regard to Collective Orchestration
  • Panpsychism allows evolutionary principles to be
    applied to the inanimate world.
  • It allows us to see the Cosmos alive and
    receptive.
  • It explains the phenomenon of Self-organization
    in the Inanimate world.

55
What is Self-organization?
  • Self-organization was first used as a technical
    term to describe the behavior of automatic
    systems in cybernetics and artificial
    intelligence. It was not until the late seventies
    and eighties that the idea of self-organization
    became more widely used, as scientists began to
    apply it in describing the self-generating and
    autocatalytic behavior of complex systems, both
    living and nonliving, in nature.
  • Its popularization is mostly due to the rapid
    spread of another new science, the theory of
    chaotic or non-linear systems, in short the
    Theory of Chaos.

56
  • An autocatalytic system is a complex system in
    which all members are connected with each other
    by communication.
  • A living system is self-maintaining,
    self-renewing and self-transcending.
  • When accepting Panpsychism we can now say that
    all systems are self-maintaining, self-renewing
    and self-transcending

57
  • All natural systems have the inherent tendency to
    go beyond themselves in unpredictable, creative
    ways. They are self-transcending.
  • The universe, far from being mostly dead stuff,
    is continuously communicating, creatively
    connecting, and renewing itself.

58
  • Panpsychism makes the phenomenon of
    self-organization at all levels of the organic
    and inorganic world plausible.
  • Self-organization makes immediate, intuitive
    sense.

59
  • The biologist Stuart Kauffman said about the
    power of self-organization, which he boldly calls
    order for free an unexpected and profound order
    can emerge spontaneously. I believe this order is
    so powerful that it may account for much of the
    dynamical order in organisms.

60
  • Kauffman emphasized the importance of collective
    dynamics in the emergence of life.
  • The ultimate source of order and
    self-reproduction may lie in the emergence of
    collectively ordered dynamics in complex chemical
    reaction systems.

61
  • Organisms, we have come to believe, are tinkered
    together contraptions, ad hoc marriages of design
    principles, chance, and necessity. I think this
    view is inadequate.
  • Darwin did not know the power of
    self-organization. Indeed, we hardly glimpse that
    power ourselves.
  • Such self-organization, from the origin of life
    to its coherent dynamics, must play an essential
    role in this history of life, indeed, I would
    argue, in any history of life.

62
  • But Darwin was also correct. Natural selection is
    always acting.
  • Thus, we must rethink evolutionary theory. The
    natural history of life is some form of marriage
    between self-organization and selection. We must
    see life anew and fathom new laws for its
    unfolding. Stuart Kauffman

63
  • Such complex reaction systems. . . can
    spontaneously cross a threshold, or phase
    transition, beyond which they become capable of
    collective self-reproduction, evolution, and
    exquisitely ordered dynamical behavior.
  • The ultimate sources of the order requisite for
    lifes emergence and evolution may rest on new
    principles of collective emergent behavior in far
    from equilibrium reaction systems. Kauffman,
    What is Life? Was Schrödinger right? pg. 84.

64
  • I suggest that Collective Orchestration is the
    universal principle that allows self-organization
    to co-exist with natural selection in the process
    of creating ever more complex systems- in
    physics, chemistry, and biology.

65
  • Collective Orchestration provides an
    organizational principle that seamlessly connects
    the so-called inorganic world with the world of
    living things.

66
  • Collective Orchestration is based on the
    principle of synchronization

67
  • The mathematician Strogatz observed that
    synchronized behavior patterns occur in nature on
    many levels. Technically such synchronized
    behavior is made possible through so-called
    oscillators. An oscillator is a pulsating device
    mostly used for the purpose of generating a
    signal. Stephen Strogatz, Sync The Emerging
    Science of Spontaneous Order, (2003)

68
  • Coupled oscillators are systems of such devices
    with two or more members that are communicating
    with each other. Often their communication
    results in synchronized behavior. Strogatz, pg 3.

69
Oscillation Communication
  • Groups of fireflies, planets, or pacemaker cells
    are all collections of oscillators-entities that
    cycle automatically, that repeat themselves over
    and over again at more or less regular time
    intervals.
  • . . nature uses every available channel to allow
    these oscillators to talk to one another.
  • And the result of those conversations is often
    synchrony, in which all the oscillators begin to
    move as one. Strogatz,

70
  • When sync occurs among unconscious entities like
    electrons or cells, it seems almost miraculous.
  • It's surprising enough to see animals cooperating
    - thousands of crickets chirping in unison on a
    summer night the graceful undulating of schools
    of fish-
  • but it's even more shocking to see mobs of
    mindless things falling into step by themselves.
    Strogatz

71
  • These occurrences of synchronized behavior all
    follow the same mathematical pattern described by
    oscillators. They are also perfect examples of
    how natural systems, animate and inanimate,
    self-organize into more complex systems. Strogatz

72
  • Strogatz concludes
  • . . . fireflies organize themselves. No Maestro
    is required, and it doesn't matter what the
    weather is like. Sync occurs through mutual
    cuing, in the same way that an orchestra can keep
    perfect time without a conductor. Strogatz

73
  • These phenomena are so incredible that
    commentators have been led to deny their
    existence, attributing them to illusions,
    accidents, or perceptual errors. Other observers
    have soared into mysticism, attributing sync to
    supernatural forces in the cosmos. Strogatz

74
  • What's counterintuitive here is that the insects
    don't need to be intelligent. They have all the
    ingredients they need Each firefly contains an
    oscillator, a little metronome, whose timing
    adjusts automatically in response to the flashes
    of others. That's it. Strogatz

75
  • . . . at a deeper level, there is a connection,
    one that transcends the details of any particular
    mechanism.
  • That connection is mathematics.
  • All the examples are variations on the same
    mathematical theme self-organization, the
    spontaneous emergence of order out of chaos.
  • Strogatz

76
  • Strogatz For reasons we don't yet understand,
    the tendency to synchronize is one of the most
    pervasive drives in the universe, extending from
    atoms to animals, from people to planets.

77
  • The new scientific paradigm that includes
    Panpsychism allows us to speculate which forces
    of nature are behind such persistent
    synchronization. What could cause this
    unexpected and profound order that can emerge
    spontaneously. An order that is so powerful
    that it may account for much of the dynamical
    order in organisms. Kaufman

78
  • Contrary to Strogatz we suggest that individuals
    do not synchronize automatically, but that they
    experience a sense of pleasure
  • in collaboration.

79
  • Individuals at all levels prefer to be on rather
    than off, and they prefer to be with others
    rather than alone. These are the only innate
    rules they follow. The rest is chance and
    selection.

80
  • Consider John Conways Game of Life
  • On a two dimensional board, based on a few
    mathematical rules, individual cells can live,
    die, or multiply.
  • The patterns this cellular automaton produces are
    the result of a programmers intelligent design.
  • The game lacks a vital ingredient
    Self-Organization.

81
  • What if we conceive of these cells as alive,
    performing these steps because they like to do
    so. The cells prefer to be alive, rather than
    dead. They like to cooperate and multiply.
  • Now the game is self-sufficient, autocatalytic,
    self creating. in the process it creates the most
    interesting structures.

82
  • But one ingredient is still missing Complexity.
  • The Game of Life is played on a two dimensional
    board.
  • Nature creates complexity by climbing a
    dimensional ladder.
  • We begin at zero dimension

83
  • With the inclusion of the panpsychist view we are
    allowed to assume that at the basis of the
    material world logical units operate and relate
    to each other without needing an outside impulse.

84
  • At Zero Dimension
  • Pointless, mass-less, dimensionless objects,
    which the philosopher Alfred North Whitehead
    called Occasions of Experience, populate the
    base.
  • Their only actuality is relational. They relate
    to each other.

85
  • As these individual Occasions of Experience
    relate to each other they build a network or
    field of relationships.
  • Collectively they gain a degree of freedom and
    move to the next higher dimension, which is the
    first dimension.

86
Elementary Domains
  • Hideki Yukawa, a Nobel laureate for his discovery
    of meson theory, sought the yet unknown reality
    behind quantum theory.
  • Yukawa looked for this reality in the
    discontinuous structure of space on the extremely
    fine sub-microscopic scale. He initiated a
    revolutionary school of thought in his theory of
    elementary domains.

87
1. Dimension One dimensional strings
  • Yukawas Elementary Domains are the same as
    Whiteheads Occasions of Experience.
  • They collectively create a field and build
    objects in the next dimension.

88
What is a field?
  • A Field is a collection of individuals
    collaborating to create a single individual but
    in the next higher dimension.
  • When two individual objects relate to each other
    they create the inner awareness of a new degree
    of freedom, or a new dimension.

89
  • One dimensional strings are the objects at the
    first dimension.

90
2 dimension Higgs Field
  • These one-dimensional strings cooperate, and
    again they build a field.
  • This possibly is the speculative Higgs field.
  • Two dimensional Higgs particles are the basic
    quanta of discontinuous space/time.

91
3 Dimensional Space/Time
  • Space/time quanta cooperate and build a
    continuous field which we experience as our three
    dimensional world.

92
Examples, cont.
  • Continuous space is the result of Collective
    Orchestration of Higgs bosons

93
4. Dimension
  • The result of vibrating and cooperating
    space/time quanta in the third dimension is the
    creation of material objects in the fourth
    dimension.
  • We now have reached the level of elementary
    particles, which populate the 4th and 5th
    dimension.

94
What is Gravity?
  • Space/time quanta self organize and form quarks.
  • This is the secret of gravity.

95
  • What appears as an attractive force is the
    self-organizing drift of space/time quanta. Large
    objects take in the quanta around them (as food
    if you will). This creates the illusion of
    attraction.
  • Space itself moves toward large objects. Free
    fall in a vacuum feels like standing still.

96
  • Collective Orchestration presents an exiting new
    insight into the complex interplay of
    individuals, fields, and new individuals at a
    higher dimension.
  • This will yield a new approach to the
    understanding of quantum field theory and
    electromagnetic fields.

97
  • In the light of Collective Orchestration, these
    coherent fields of quanta are organized systems,
    which in their higher order are capable to
    perform functions that were impossible for the
    lower order individuals.

98
For Example Bose Einstein Condensate
  • Einstein generalized Bose's theory to an ideal
    gas of identical atoms or molecules for which the
    number of particles is conserved and predicted
    that at sufficiently low temperatures the
    particles would become locked together in the
    lowest quantum state of the system.
  • The Bose Einstein condensate has many unusual
    properties

99
Bose-Einstein
100
  • Bose-condensed atoms are "laser-like" - in other
    words, the matter waves of the atoms are
    coherent.
  • In these experiments we have succeeded in
    observing coherence directly, and have
    demonstrated a rudimentary "atom laser" that
    generates a beam of coherent atoms. MIT

101
.
  • Each photon is the result of Collective
    Orchestration of Space/Time quanta.
  • Light is an excitation of empty space proper, of
    the vacuum. It is no more and no less. henning
    gentz, Nothingness, the science of empty space
    pg. 180

102
Under the right conditions photons self-organize
The result is a laser beam

103
Mari Jibu and Kunio Yasue in Quantum Brain
Dynamics and Consciousness1
  • A laser is a device that can emit a specific
    form of light in which numerous photons with a
    definite wave number display the same wave motion
    as that of the electro magnetic field. This is
    accomplished by a collective motion of the
    electrons, called the collective mode, in a large
    number of atoms interacting with the
    electromagnetic field. A global harmony or order
    emerges in the matter field and the
    electromagnetic field, that is, electrons and
    photons. ..This is a laser beam.

Examples from Chemistry
  • Under favorable conditions molecules
    self-organize
  • Result crystals, ice, plasma etc. viruses and
    one cell organism

105
  • . . . trillions of water molecules spontaneously
    lock themselves into a rigid, symmetrical crystal
    of ice.

106
Examples from Biology
  • 5. At the level of one cell organisms cells
    cooperate
  • Result multi cell organisms with internal
    structure and distinguishable organs, plants and
    simple animals, such as worms and snails

107
Examples, cont.
  • 6. at the level of multi-cell organisms
  • Result complex animals with higher developed
    intelligence, insects

108
Examples, cont.
  • 7. At the level of insects
  • Result Mammals

109
Examples, cont.
  • 8. At the level of mammals
  • Families

  • Such persistent sync comes easily to us human
    beings, and, for some reason, it often gives us
    pleasure. We like to dance together, sing
    together, play in a band.
  • Strogatz

111
  • Pleasure is the driving force for all
    synchronization.
  • Just as it is pleasurable for human beings to
    fall into lock step and do things together, so
    perhaps everything else in nature has great fun
    doing things together.
  • Pleasure is the innate principle of all natural
    systems.

Lack of pleasure is death

Colony Collapse Disorder The Ultimate Threat to
Survival
  • All around the world bee colonies are
    disappearing at an alarming rate. In the USA more
    than half the bee hives are gone, swallowed by a
    ghostly decease.
  • Individual bees simply fail to return to their
    hives, leaving their home deserted and their
    helpless offspring left to die.

114
  • Could it be that the underlying cause for this
    disorder is the collapse of the will to survive?
  • If it takes passion for an individual to
    cooperate in a communal task and make the group
    succeed, could it not equally be conceivable that
    groups as a whole can loose this enthusiasm and
    give up trying to stay together?

115
  • Could autism be a colony collapse of a different
    kind and would this knowledge make a difference
    in treatment?

116
  • Are these signs of an evolution turning against
    itself, unraveling the progress it made over
    billions of years?
  • Is Collective Orchestration becoming undone,
    before we even fully understand it?

117
  • The ancient Egyptians said that in the beginning
    order created itself like a snake body out of
    nothingness.

118
  • New communities will rise out of the rubble of
    old ones. We have a choice
  • Collaborate with each other peacefully,
    constructively and creatively and rise together
    to the next higher level
  • or let our communities and colonies collapse to
    make place for new ones.
