The Emergence of Universal Consciousness: Brendan Hughes at TEDxPretoria


Brendan is a lawyer, technology entrepreneur and author of The Simunye Hypothesis (Kindle only, $2.99), a restatement of holism that considers the emergence of universal consciousness based on new theories of particle behavior, genetic mutation, and social media.

Interesting and partial, at best.

Here is an additional short video in which Hughes talks about his philosophical model.


Enjoy!

The Emergence of Universal Consciousness: Brendan Hughes at TEDxPretoria

Published on Jan 21, 2014


It was Aristotle who first argued that the whole is something greater than the sum of its parts. More recently, quantum physicists have argued for the existence of a unified field in which all particles and forces exist. This short but provocative talk explores whether new theories of social media, particle behavior and genetic mutation support an understanding of the universe as a complex adaptive system with emergent consciousness.
