Quantum physicist David Bohm was a strong proponent of in-‐formation and what he called the Implicate or Enfolded Order. “The mathematics itself [of quantum theory] suggests a move-‐ ment in which everything, any particular element of space, may have a field which unfolds into the whole and the whole enfolds it in it.” 40 Bohm uses the example of a hologram in which the entire image is contained within an aspect of the hologram such that light can be shone through the fragment and we can see the whole thing. The holographic metaphor is now emerging as a mainstream interpretation of how the universe unfolds; Michael Talbot popularized the idea with the book The Holographic Universe 41 drawing extensively on David Bohm’s insights. “In the implicate order everything is thus internally related to everything, everything contains everything, and only in the explicate order are things separate and relatively independent.” 42 The explicate order refers to our ordinary perceived reality composed of what appear to be separate and distinct material constructs. “Consciousness, therefore, is really our most immediate experience of this impli-‐ cate order.” 43 I have tossed a number of terms into the mix here, which may lend to some confusion, ultimately implicate, enfolded, and holographic all refer to this in-‐formation or morphic field. I believe that consciousness itself is this in-‐formation field, and is 40 Bohm, David On Creativity (Routledge) 1996 p. 129 41 Talbot, Michael The Holographic Universe (Harper Collins)1991 42 Bohm, David On Creativity (Routledge) 1996 p. 129
apt in awe what actually evolves in the universe. Physics tells us that the universe contains a fixed amount of energy that is fluid in ex-‐ change but not created nor destroyed. Thus I contend that of the two cosmological foundations – energy and in-‐formation – in-‐ formation is what evolves toward greater complexity through novelty and confirmation. I also am suggesting that this in-‐ formation is consciousness, and that consciousness is contained within all manifest structure to varying degrees of complexity. Minerals and plants and animals have consciousness in this inter-‐ pretation, but it is not as evolved as the self-‐reflexive awareness that we humans have access to. Within rapt in awe I place both considerable and consistent weight on the word ‘consciousness’, and I will flesh out what I mean more clearly here. In our everyday use of the word consciousness, we are largely referencing the waking state of us humans. The psychology of Carl Jung has brought widespread attention to both the subconscious and the collective conscious, which certainly expand the context of the word much further. Consciousness as used herein can be considered synonymous with the in-‐formation field. In this context I do reference this at times as cosmic consciousness, the mind of the universe, but fail to do so at other times. The individual consciousness that each of us experiences first hand is a holographic node of the cosmic consciousness bestowed to us as agents of creation. We are cosmic consciousness waking up to itself, which is a truly exciting reason to get out of bed in the morning. Though our subconscious speaking through dreams is equally valid in this process of cosmic evolution. We will come back to this idea in more detail in later sections, when we come down from the cosmos at large looking closer at global and individual implications of this new story. So I am saying that all form and structure in the cosmos comes from this in-‐formation field and is animated by raw energy.
