that I ask physicalists: what is the first principle from where
consciousness arises?
Truth. That cannot be a mathematical construct (provably so if
computationalism is true). It is not 3p definable.
The whole key is in the theorem that ([]p & p) does not admit a
predicate definable to any machine from which "[]p & p" is (meta)defined.
But what relevance does that have for the correspondence theory of truth?
