INTERDOC_53 — Substrate-Independent Information Patterns: Empirical Cases

A pattern is empirically substrate-independent if the same information content is preserved across changes in the physical material carrying it. Across multiple domains, biology and physics provide concrete instances of

INTERDOC_77 — Virtual Reality as a Consciousness Laboratory: What the Self Reveals When You Move Its Walls

The foundational insight from two decades of VR consciousness research is deceptively simple: the brain does not receive reality — it votes on what is most probably real. When VR provides sensory evidence that overrides

INTERDOC_23 — Placebo, Nocebo, and the Biology of Belief

[KEY FINDING] The placebo effect is not "fake medicine" — it involves genuine, measurable physiological changes mediated by endogenous neurotransmitter systems. Fabrizio Benedetti (University of Turin) has demonstrated:
