For three decades, this conference has gathered the world's boldest thinkers to confront the hardest questions about the nature of mind, experience, and reality.
Panpsychism, illusionism, higher-order theories, integrated information — the leading frameworks will be presented, debated, and stress-tested against new experimental data.
From molecules to minds, and perhaps even alien life, how and when does conscious experience emerge? Exploring the evolutionary roots and boundaries of sentience across living and potentially nonliving systems.
