Thought Odyssey, what’s this brain thing anyways?

It could be that human consciousness is a result of having the just right combinations of energy waves coming out of our brains. Imagine if you will. The universe at large sits around and waits for those specific delta, gamma, theta waves to be produced and then starts interacting with them.

So what do our brainwaves interact with? What does that interaction look like?

Neutrinos are the smallest particle we know of. A curious manifestation created shortly after the big bang, Neutrinos have been around for 15 billion years. They are released during particle collisions, deaths and births of stars and nuclear explosions. In both life and death, annihilation and combination neutrinos thrive. They permeate the universe in a gelatin-like field, occupying an unfathomable amount of space but rarely interacting with other particles. At this moment you likely have 5 million neutrinos passing through your body. They are everywhere.

Every level of interaction in the universe is about the exchange and consumption of information. Quarks have an inherent knowledge in their substance that is looking for a particle with a certain charge to join or reject. In the passing of two quarks they exchange virtual particles, unfathomably small units of information that tell eachother how to behave.

Spoken and written language operate the same way. When we speak to someone we are physically delivering our intent and information with another. The sound waves we create by saying “Hello” are physical, existing in our atmosphere and are manipulating the matter around that information packet for optimum delivery. We are built from particle-up to deliver and consume information. From RNA diving in and copying strands of DNA to create new cells to telling your favorite story at the bar. Humans have done a fantastic job of creating complexity out of positive/negative charges. We can open a book, stare at ancient symbols and hallucinate vividly that we are someone else.

Humans have no genetic code available to create a system of understanding with language. There is no default grammar programmed into a newborn. Language develops itself via the brain’s energy waves interacting with a field of intelligence, usually your parents. Very similar to how gravity operates at a quantum level. The Higgs bosons create a universe-filling field and the particles with high or weak energy levels trade information between themselves in order to make combinations for matter.

So what could cause consciousness in the first place, what is the chicken before the egg? Could neutrinos have interacted with its cousin particle’s creations over the expanse of time? It could have been slowly modifying and recreating different circumstances to create self-aware thought. Human beings could have just been a biological crapshoot that somehow started asking questions. Neutrinos could be a shaping force of creation spread widely across the universe searching for conditions of complex biological machines.

Animals below human intelligence also operate in this intelligence field. They just don’t have the right combination of energy waves emanating from their skull. It’s a natural progression to how humans evolved to have more complex neurological structures, and just like evolution itself, nature finds a way for things to just work together.

What are the implications of harnessing this force? Is telekenisis possible? Are we interacting with ancient information unwittingly? Are neutrinos the source of creation, creativity, and thought? Could we use this idea to move beyond our physical bodies?

Who knows, I’m a designer not a scientist.
