Materie und Bewußtsein aus abstrakter, bedeutungsfreier Quanteninformation (Protyposis) : Zweite erweitete Fassung eines Vortrages am Zentrum für Philosophie der Universität Gießen

In connection with the entropy of black holes and with cosmology, quantum theory can give a basic ontological significance to Protyposis - abstract quantum information. On this scientific basis, matter can be understood in a new way as arranged quantum information. Likewise, consciousness can be appreciated as real as e.g. elementary particles. This new concept solves the mind-body-problem by saving the positive aspects of a dualistic and of a materialistic-monistic worldview without getting their shortcomings.
