Ervin László: Quantum Consciousness

Ervin László is a Hungarian philosopher of science, systems theorist, integral theorist, originally a classical pianist. Twice nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize, is editor of the international periodical World Futures: The Journal of General Evolution and Chancellor-Designate of the newly formed GlobalShift University. He is the author of 83 books translated into 21 languages. László's most famous work, his 2004 book Science and the Akashic Field: An Integral Theory of Everything posits a field of information as the substance of the cosmos. He calls this information field the "Akashic field" or "A-field". He posits that the "quantum vacuum" is the fundamental energy and information-carrying field that informs not just the current universe, but all universes past and present (collectively, the metaverse) László believes that such an informational field can explain why our universe appears to be fine-tuned so as to form galaxies and conscious lifeforms; and why evolution is an informed, not random, process. He believes that the hypothesis solves several problems that emerge from quantum physics, especially nonlocality and quantum entanglement.
