Yes, good comment, thank you, as explained above, my original idea was wrong, or at least confusing, DrChinese showed me that, and it was a silly mistake that is clearly commonplace and has been well thought about and would seem to make it impossible to test the role of consciousness (like the...

If you like... [Obviously Pauli & Bohr would disagree but not worth discussing] On the end of the machines is a consciousness... For you then, as explained, it will fail, but for someone out there who falls in love with this thread, the answer could be different.

For the record I am not talking about relativist morality, I am taking about light falling on a screen through double slits. You say you have provided a desciption of what will occur, I deny that, I have explained at length how something you say is impossible is, I am now certain, possible if...

You are not understanding what I am saying. The manifest observation of the wave depends only on your act of observation of the experiment, it does not depend at all on the objective physical setup in some old fashioned physical way. Since a mixed hypothesis is cognatively open, it is observable...

DrChinese, Let me put the experiment to you like this: You prepare two sets of slides, set A has two slides with the same polarisation orientation, set B has two slides with orthogonal polarization. So if you load set A into your experiment you will see interference, but consolidation with set...

I realize that is what many would think on the face of it, but it that really true? Will nobody reputuble agree with me? Or has the problem been considered before and a certain conclusion reached? That is what I want to see... On your polarizer suggestion, it would have to be as follows, the...

Hi, I studied undergrad pure maths now post grad philosophy, not quantum physics, but please consider the following experiment: Suppose you set up a double slits experiment with a photon detector attached to each slit, and the photon detector attached to a photon transmitter, so the photon can...
