SETI, Or SAC, Should The Search For Extraterrestrial Intelligence Be A Search For Alien Consciousness? - Daily Grail

For years, humanity's been scanning the skies in hopes of eavesdropping on extraterrestrials. Mind how those decades amount to a teaspoonful of data compared to megaliters of data out there in the cosmos. There's more than one way to reach out and touch someone, as Greg Taylor argues for some maverick techniques in hopes of kickstarting our first petitions to join the galactic community. And while we're talking about the importance of consciousness over mere intelligence, Sharon Hewitt Rawlette explains Why It's Simpler To Believe Everything Is Conscious. But is simpler better, per Ockham's Razor, or are mainstream scientists merely trying to brush the hard problem of consciousness under the rug by framing it in a materialist context? Consciousness is weird. If it wasn't then how could we fully appreciate The Mystique Of The Unconscious In Creativity. In fact if creativity's roots lay in the unconscious then it very well could play into the whole mess of determinism and free will. That is if I'm correctly reading Albert Rothenberg's thesis. (CS)
