EDITORIAL REVIEW --- FIFTH COMMENTARY ON CRICK & KOCH
The 10 point framework and the altogether too hard basket
- By Colin Hales
The large footprints of the Crick/Koch duo at the frontier of knowledge can
be a little daunting, which is why I was concerned at the very first
paragraph of A Framework for Consciousness (1). It says that qualia are
too hard and it appears fruitless to approach them head on. Qualia are
then tacitly assumed emergent from the framework presented. I know the work
is entitled A framework, not The framework, but from Crick and Koch it
read a little like Qualia cannot be approached from outside the framework.
I dont think this was the intent, but it may be that the plausible
explanation they need is stopped by the framework.
