Consciousness

This paper is the result of directing the Von agentic AI to perform the following functions: Track the flow of information through the human brain using neurological literature in an attempt to isolate the regions of the brain that are most likely to produce and sense qualia. Attempt to isolate any proteins that might be responsible for producing or sensing qualia by examining the found regions. Proteins could be isolated by information tracking. Proteins could also be isolated by searching for proteins that are found in only the regions most likely to produce and sense qualia. Additionally, proteins could be found by looking for a common geometrical structure that may be responsible for producing and sensing qualia. It is assumed throughout that there may be such a thing as a 'thought antenna' that interacts strongly with a consciousness field in a manner similar to an electromagnetic antenna's strong interaction with electromagnetism. A large number of thought antennas could cooperate to produce a consciousness field in a manner similar to how atoms can cooperate to produce a magnetic field. Empaths claim that they can sense emotion; a normal human could potentially sense a thought antenna in a similar manner if the produced thought field were sufficiently strong. Additionally, a development plan for a prototype thought antenna is drafted within the paper to illustrate how this concept might be physically engineered and tested. The reasoning presented herein is completely theoretical, and any 'empathic proof' or observational claims of this nature serve primarily as a hypothetical framework to either prove or refute this theory.
