A theorem that demonstrates consciousness must be based on the current state of matter. A no-go theorem demonstrates emergentist / computationalist theories violate one of two axioms required for science and physics. The state-based framework argues that only quantum state and collapse, and electromagnetic field theories are scientifically viable. The simplest interpretation of the state-based framework is that science must adopt panpsychism. This perspective opens up a new branch of fundamental physics, and has important cultural implications.
