Why would consciousness come from discrete compactified space? To
me, all that this kind of explanation does is shift the mystery of
consciousness from a person to a space. It ascribes the power of
feeling and thinking to an arithmetic idea rather than a person,
leaving us right back where we started - asking why does an
arithmetic idea have thoughts and feelings.
Because we assume the brain works like a computer. Then, no computer
can distinguish an arithmetical reality supportinh his personhood from
any other reality supporting Turing universality, unless it belongs to
a simulation in some normal world(s) supplied by infinitely many
corrections (that is we are purposefully failed by liars).
