I think I haven't always been clear on our definitions of mechanism
and materialism. But I can understand and accept definitions of those
terms under which MGA 1 shows that it's logically necessary that Lucky
Alice is conscious, and MGA 2 shows that it's logically necessary that
"the projection of the movie makes Alice conscious" (your words from a
previous email). I think we can proceed with that.
But can you clarify exactly what MECH+MAT is supposed to be saying
about the movie? Does MECH+MAT say that something special is happening
when we project the movie, or is the simple existence of the movie
enough?
