Fractals and the irreducibility of consciousness in plants and animals.

John Gardiner1.   

Abstract

In both plants and animals consciousness is fractal. Since fractals can only pass information in one direction it is impossible to extrapolate backward to find the rule that governs the fractal. Thus, similarly, it will be impossible to completely determine the rule or rules that govern consciousness.
