Qbism and the Ineffable Foundation of Reality: Professor Harvey Brown

This is a very fascinating OxfordQuantum Lecture from this summer

It is very rare for scientists to admit the truth about reality!! He says the wavefunction is a belief and so science is stuck at the level of belief.

He says there is a "birth" done by quantum physicists interacting with the foundation of reality - there is something that happens without any need to "collapse the wavefunction."

My quantum consciousness playlist is getting huge but I think I finally scraped the bottom of the barrel. I dug into vids that no one has commented on yet. There's a few posters who troll the quantum vids on youtube. haha. Spamming their comments. But I found vids that are beyond their level of understanding.

I have been completely intrigued by this topic on youtube - quantum consciousness. If you search meditation quantum you get half a million vids on youtube! But I only found a couple worth adding to my playlist - one by my correspondent Nobel Physicist Brian Josephson.

Qbism founder

For those to whom a set of infinite parallel realities is too high a price to pay to avoid wave-function collapse, there’s always the Bohmian interpretation, which seeks to restore a more concrete reality to the world by postulating the existence of a guiding force that permeates the universe and deterministically governs everything in it. Unfortunately, this new reality lies forever out of reach of scientific probing.
This is not true! "Weak measurements" are now revealing the empirical truth of the quantum potential trajectories.
 Schrödinger thought that the Greeks had a kind of hold over us — they saw that the only way to make progress in thinking about the world was to talk about it without the “knowing subject” in it. QBism goes against that strain by saying that quantum mechanics is not about how the world is without us; instead it’s precisely about us in the world. The subject matter of the theory is not the world or us but us-within-the-world, the interface between the two.
 As QBism understands a quantum measurement outcome, it’s personal. No one else can see it. I see it or you see it. There’s no transformation that takes the one personal experience to the other personal experience.
 Atman=Brahman.

 the real message of quantum mechanics is that the world is loose at the joints, that there really is contingency in the world, that there really can be novelty in the world, then the world is about possibilities all the time, and quantum mechanics ties them together.

Nonlocality - a test for Qbism - Christopher Fuchs

I don't say I agree with Qbism - only that it shows how science at its foundation is an amazing mystery!! Qbism admits this. Reality is subjective at its foundation - what does that mean? haha.
