Source: A Holoinformational Model of the Physical Observer, By FRANCISCO DI BIASE, Dept. of Neurosurgery-Neurology Santa Casa Hospital, Barra do Piraí, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
This text introduces a holoinformational model of consciousness, arguing that awareness is not a mere byproduct of the brain but a fundamental, nonlocal property of the universe. By synthesizing David Bohm’s quantum-holographic theory with Karl Pribram’s holonomic brain function, the author suggests that the mind operates through an indivisible interconnectivity between neural networks and a cosmic informational field. The source moves beyond traditional Newtonian reductionism to propose a participatory universe where information acts as the primary organizational principle linking matter, life, and spirit. Ultimately, this framework seeks to solve the "hard problem" of experience by viewing the human observer as a localized expression of a universal intelligence that self-organizes through infinite levels of complexity.

For centuries, science has often tried to explain awareness using a "clockwork" model of the universe, viewing the brain as a complex machine that can be understood by taking it apart. This traditional, reductionist approach, rooted in Cartesian-Newtonian thought, has struggled to grasp the true essence of what awareness is. This has led pioneering thinkers to seek a more holistic view, integrating the strange and interconnected world of quantum physics with the intricate biology of the brain.
This guide will introduce you to three of these foundational figures: physicist David Bohm, neuroscientist Karl Pribram, and Nobel laureate Sir John Eccles. Together, their groundbreaking ideas laid the intellectual groundwork for modern, integrated theories of consciousness, such as the Holoinformational Model, by proposing that awareness is deeply woven into the fabric of the cosmos itself.
