Ok, let me try this again. I want a way to map between the internal and external views of a mind. That is, given what I know about what I’m experiencing, what can I deduce about the physical structure of my brain? And given a physical description of a mind, what can I know about what it is experiencing? Perhaps this is already considered a legitimate part of the problem of consciousness according to heterophenomenology, or “behaviorism” (are they the same thing?), but if so I think it’s at least not a part of the problem that those approaches tend to emphasize. In any case, I’d appreciate it if ciphergoth could address this topic a bit in his post.
(Why am I so interested in this part of the problem? Mainly because I need the solution in order for UDT1 to be usable by human beings.)
