Quantum Information Panpsychism: A Testable Gap — E8 Intelligence Research
Year: 2026
Type: preprint
Abstract: FINDING: Panpsychism debate centers on whether consciousness is fundamental physics, with quantum-information formulations (Faggin/D'Ariano) proposing a non-computational, non-material basis — but no quantitative mathematical model or testable equation emerges from these sources. | MATH: No equations, constants, or ratios are presented in any of the listed sources. The closest to formal structure is the claim of "quantum information" as foundational, but no specific Hilbert space, operator algebra, or information-theoretic measure (e.g., von Neumann entropy S = -Tr(ρ ln ρ)) is given. | CONNECTION: None. No explicit link to 0.382, 0.618, 0.786, 1.618, 2.618, base-60, crystallographic symmetry, root systems, or lattice structures appears in the cited material. | DEPTH: 2/10 — The sources are philosophical/popular presentations, not mathematical derivations. The only quantitative anchor is the existence of arxiv paper 2011.14743 (IPPOG), which is about science education outreach, not cons Author: Andrew Stewart Caldin, Independent Researcher, UK.
