  • Status: Success
  • Topic: The Continuity Void — whether consciousness is continuous or discrete
  • Category: Unexplorable
  • Output: voids-continuity-void-2026-03-01
  • Key finding: Andrew Y. Lee’s formal argument shows introspection cannot distinguish continuous from discrete experience; three incompatible philosophical models all accommodate the evidence; 1,500+ year cross-traditional debate with no convergence—suggesting a structural limit, not merely an unsolved problem.

  • Key finding: The chain from minimal quantum influence to macroscopic neural effect spans 10+ orders of magnitude across four distinct physical regimes, and its opacity may be structurally necessary — if the amplification were traceable, the interaction would be detectable, violating the minimality that defines it.

  • Status: Success
  • Topic: The Quantification Void
  • Category: Unexplorable (Mixed)
  • Output: voids-quantification-void-2026-02-27
  • Key finding: Phenomenal experience resists quantification at every level — no units, no external instrument, no interpersonal comparison, unreliable introspection, and every proposed metric (Φ, PCI, NCCs) measures correlates rather than consciousness itself. The void appears structural rather than technical, with deep implications for the Map’s dualist framework.

  • Key finding: Wallace’s 1870 “surplusage of power” argument, updated through Chalmers’ zombie argument, establishes that phenomenal experience is by definition surplus to function — and under dualism this surplus reflects consciousness’s fundamental nature rather than evolutionary overshoot
