So perhaps there is an atom of truth in Pauli and Jung after all :)

The "Math Logic "is just the "Philosophy" made a bit more communicable.

Not at all, I make public the idea in 1963. I started from the question
"what is the life time of the amoeba?" well before I knew about chemistry
or even Plato. In 1971 I discover the little book by Nagel & Newman on Godel
theorem (Foyles for Books Charring Cross Road London, at a scholar trip)
which decides me to do the math and to translate the amoeba reasoning in
arithmetics. Only much later will I discover EPR and the weirdness of the
quantum.
There are some poetical strongness in both Young and Pauli which
I can appreciate, but with modern philophical rigor standard they quite miss
the "communicable" point.

You mean we assume lot or wrong "propositions". We never assume "questions",
we just ask, hoping being clear. You miss me completely if you believe
my approach to mind has something to do with Copenhague. I mean my
approach is a mechanist one like Everett, Zeh, or Deutsch.
Mind has the type of Information, memory, communication. Neither
spirit nor substance, but organised bits.

After Leeuwhenhoek, the inventor-discoverer of the microscope.
You can get the whole thing just by imagining yourself duplicable like
an amoeba or bacteria ...
Look at the uda you will see I don't use QT.
(by the way don't wait I write an english paper, consult the everything list
instead, but, like Wei Dai (everything list owner) said, you better study
Boolos 1993 book before, or read at
least the simpler "Forever Undecided" by Raymong Smullyan which
introduced recreatively the
modal logic G which is the basic tool for the arithmetical version of the
Universal dovetailer argument (auda). All references, including those
pointing to the everything mailing list, are in my URL below).
In a nutshell if we are machine (comp) we cannot know in which computation
we belong and to predict the (immediate) future we must extract a measure
on all computations going through the "actual" state. Church thesis makes
the notion of "all computations" machine independent.

Indeed and that is what I have done. Of course at the stage of
verification let me look at nature cause I would like to know if comp
is wrong.
What I say is that the dreamy aspect of reality is testable.
If mathematically comp gives QM then verification of QM leads to verification
of comp.

Which reality?
Math = rules of Thumbs? No. Like Deutsch I aknowledge math reality
kicks back. There is an objective reality with math. Even in math,
*theories* are always simplification. Rule of thumbs are only tools for
seing more in the math realm, not the math ream itself.
You mean "physical reality"? That's a mystical concept I respect but cannot
use in my context where I ask, among other things, for an explanation of the
physicalness or the belief in physicalness.
In any case, there are no mathematical *theories* which mirror even just
arithmetical reality totally.

*I* am the guy with the "new theory" here :-) Except it is not a
theory I *propose*, it is a theory I isolate from the cartesian comp
postulates. Z1* is not "my" theory, it is the theory by any sound
universal machine.
Z1* looks like Quantum Probability + terrible renormalisation problem.
I currently hope Hopf Algebra can help here ...I've perhaps make some piece
of progress in the puzzle but still too much with formal similarities
instead of conceptual clues ...
I should perhaps add that there are other pieces of evidence that physics
is part of pure number theory which are quite independent from the
self-referential approach I try to develop. I have not the references
here but I think about the work of Caroline Series, ...
Look also Dirk Kreimer's book on Knots and Feynman diagram.
You know D. Dennett insists (rightly imo) that an explanation of intelligence
should not rely on anything considered as intelligent. I think the same
for terms like "empirical", "physical" or "material". We should explain
those terms without any reference to empiry, physics or matter.
Plato did understand this point. Aristotle didn't, apparently.
