Orchestrated DualismPDF
The brain as infrastructure: a shell or vessel carrying a living electrical process, rather than the sole seat of the self.
Research
Theoretical work in the philosophy of mind and the science of imprinting, published as open preprints with permanent DOIs. Each paper separates the documented findings it draws on from the hypotheses it proposes.
Philosophy of mind
Recursive Selfhood: The Attending LoopPDF
Extends Orchestrated Dualism with a thesis on naming: the self as the recursive loop between a process and the act of naming it, continuously performed. Offers a new response to Parfit’s branching problem.
Imprinting
Hall’s Neural Imprint Syndrome (HNIS)PDF
A synthesis of emerging evidence for a framework proposing that neurodivergent nervous systems encode formative experience through mirror neuron imprinting at a cellular and bioelectrical level.
