A conceptual model linking information, time, and consciousness (ICT Model) (beehaw.org)

Hi everyone,

I’m working on a compact theoretical framework (ICT Model) that tries to link information dynamics, temporal structure, and conscious processes using minimal assumptions.

The central idea is to treat the rate of informational change (dI/dT) as a meaningful physical quantity. In this approach:

consciousness ≈ local dI/dT

matter = stabilized information

energy = interaction between changing and fixed informational states

The goal is to provide a simple shared language connecting information theory, physics, phenomenology, and models of agency.

A full preprint (with equations, phenomenology and testable criteria) is here:

Open-access preprint on Zenodo: https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.17584782

If anyone here is working in theoretical physics, information theory, philosophy of mind, or cognitive science, I’d appreciate any feedback or critique.

Hi. Unfortunately, Zenodo doesn’t allow replacing a file without deleting the entire record and creating a new version, which would reset the metadata and links. So I’m unable to change the extension there at the moment. If you’d like to download the paper as a PDF, you can do so via Academia: https://www.academia.edu/s/8924eff666#comment_1478583
