Fitoprocess

The fitoprocess is based on a sequence of rational experiments about fragmenting a consciousness producing system like a brain. The fitoprocess analogy gives an analogy with DVDs and DVS players.

The first level of the fitoprocess is the is single split fragmentation. When it is applied to the brian we have two halves of a brain connected so that both sides continue to functioning exactly the same as if it was not divided. The question is will the consciousness and or ixperiencitness be the same produced by this fidentireplica? if not then what consciousness will this fidentireplica produce? This experiment has three major aspects how the division is made, how far apart the sections are and what type of inter connecting device is used. The easiest answer is that the consciousness and ixperiencitness will be the same. Any theory that predicts other wise will have to have a reason that some other consciousness and ixperiencitness is produced. Then it should predict what consciousness will be produced in its place.

The second major step in the fitoprocess is the addition of the concept of preknowledge to the fitoprocess. in this rational experiment we make the original division but we do not connect the two parts. However, they continue to function as if they were connected by the concept of preknowledge. One way that preknowledge can be applied is by a device that knows exactly how to stimulate the each section of the brain at the exact same way and at the exact same time just like the connections would have done. The question is what is the consciousness and ixperiencit produced by this experiment. It again is the most like to have the same ixperiencitness and consciousness.

The next step is multiple divisions down to the neuron level with connections to the other neurons maintaining the exact same neuron functioning and structure shape and confirmation. Exact same shape and configuration of the neurons may not be necessary because of the connecting structure of the connecting device which most likely are electronic devices. In this case is any consciousness being produced and if so what? If not why not? Besides the extreme complexity of the experiment it may actually be physically impossible to do this experiment and get the functioning right even under ideal circumstances. if any consciousnes is produced is it a consciousness that can be produced in no other way, In other words is it a new awarepath that can not be produced in the normal ways. If so what ixperiencitness will it have ?

The fourth step is preknowledge applied to the neuron level of separation. In this case you have billions of neurons spread around space from the original brain that are kept alive and made to function exactly like they would have in the original brain by preknowledge or knowing ahead of time how to treat each neuron. Is there any consciousness produced? why or why not? is it exactly the same as the original's?

The fifth step is an imaginary case of random chance that is not actually physically impossible to actually perform and may actually exist naturally in the right circumstances. In this case rather than preknowledge producing the neurons we have one brain producing one correctly shaped and functioning neuron. Out of billions of random brains we have the same structure that we did with the preknowledge case just produced in a different way. Not only is the original brains producing their own separate consciousness they are also producing a consciousness that can be part of an entirely different awarepath.

In this sixth step, that could have been put before this, is where we have the original brain and a second brain of a cidentireplica both split exactly the same way and originally connected to the corresponding respective parts. Then we switch so that the correct half of the cidentireplicas brain is connected to the other correct half of original's brain and visa versa. In the first case we had two identical consciousness produced and in the next case we still have two identical consciousness produced. The previous two consciousness and the present two consciousness are all identical.

Applying the sixth step to the fifth step we have the situation where a different exactly functioning neuron can always replace the functioning of the first neuron so that the original neuron does not have to keep functioning in the correct way indefinitely it can be replaced by any number of different correctly functioning neurons.

If this is a true process then the consciousness that you are experiencing now might be produced this last way and have nothing to do with the reality that created it.

At the very least understanding what happens with consciousness at each step will help us understand how consciousness works and is produced.

There are other kinds of processes that apply to the other types of identireplicas such as the citoprocess for cidentireplicas, vitoprocess for videntireplicas isoprocess for isoidentireplicas enhaprocess for enhaidentireplicas simiprocess for simidentireplicas and insiprocess for insidentireplicas.
