Explore the concept of emergence in scientific and mathematical theories of consciousness through this 27-minute conference talk. Delve into the evolving meanings of 'emergence' and its applications in nature and science. Examine the distinctions between 'weak' or 'epistemic' emergence and 'strong' or 'ontological' emergence. Investigate contemporary uses of emergence in theories of consciousness, including the work of Hoel, Albantakis, & Tononi. Analyze the speaker's argument that these new forms of emergence fall between traditional weak and strong emergence. Evaluate the evidence for these emerging concepts and their potential impact on understanding consciousness.
