The sequence of quantum jumps defines a statistical ensemble and this suggests strongly a connection between the theory of qualia and thermodynamics. Sensory qualia can be divided to purely geometric ones represented by the average increments of zero modes (quantum measurement) and to non-geometric ones represented by average increments of quantum numbers (state preparation). Emotional qualia can be assigned to the entropic gradients associated with quantum jump sequence. The hypothesis about manysheeted ionic flow equilibrium involving superconducting magnetic flux tubes explains the strange effects of ELF em fields on living matter and the observations challenging the notions of ionic pumps and channels. Together with the padic length scale hypothesis it leads to the notion of spectroscopy of consciousiness explaining the resonance frequencies of EEG and correlating EEG bands and brain structures with the structure of the periodic table.

TGD based theory of consciousness relies crucially on the notion of self hierarchy whose geometrical correlate is the hierarchy of spacetime sheets realized as a 4-surface in certain 8-dimensional space. The notion of manysheeted spacetime predicts new types of macroscopic quantum phases but the lack of direct experimental evidence for the macroscopic quantum phases has been stumbling block for more detailed developments. The crucial empirical ingredient turned out to be the observations about the effects of ELF electromagnetic fields on brain. The largest effects are obtained at odd multiples of cyclotron frequencies of various biologically important ions like Ca++ in Earth's magnetic field. Also amplitude modulation of RF and MW fields by these frequencies has effects. This leads to a surprising conclusion in violent conflict with standard physics view about world: magnetically confined states of ions in Earth's magnetic field having minimal size of order cell size and energy scale of order E-14 eV are in question. The notion of manysheeted spacetime indeed allows these states: various ions are 'dropped' to cellular spacetime sheets where the thermal noise is absent so that the ions nm form superconducting macroscopic quantum phases. The model suggests what might be called spectroscopy of consciousness allowing to identify important EEG frequencies as correlates of various primary sensory qualia and EEG patterns as correlates of emotions.

It would mean : care for the future, task concerned with or applying to the future, procedure(s) of prediction / estimation. But, the social and economic tasks are not isolated. There are complex mental concepts related to the becoming of any human being, and to our societal aggregation. It is the entire auticipation by, with, and in us, society, and world - as an anticipatory system. The New Economy, the Information Society, the Knowledge Society are mental constructs as large as to receive an entire meaning. A corresponding string (comprising the relation : mental concept <=> mental constructs) would be : the foresight, prospective task, forecasting - sustained by trans, inter, and mono-disciplinary approaches of the humankind into our reality and virtuality.
