“The fact is that we seem naturally inclined to infer life and purpose in all manner of complexity: we are prone to what you might call ‘biotic pareidolia’, the analogue of our impulse to see faces in non-living structures (including the rocks of Mars!).”

Strukturierte Oberflächen wie zum Beispiel die fein geäderten Blätter einer Pflanze (hier ein Mammutblatt - Gunnera manicata) bergen tolle Möglichkeiten für spannende Fotos.

Textured surfaces such as the finely veined leaves of a plant (here a giant rhubarb leaf - Gunnera manicata) hold great possibilities for exciting photos.

Structure is an assemblage of material which can sustain loads.

If we go by that definition then all objects in the universe is structure whether living or non-living.

I believe that is just a of an interaction between two (or more) physical .

Memory requires an entire physical able to preserve the contained in this record from one moment in time to another until it is retrieved (by the system) and used for something else.

According to , the “integrated functional circuit” for requires three things:

1⃣
2⃣ , and
3⃣

Prediction is essential for drawing (memory-based)

” without which perception degenerates into and memory into ”.

interview with Prof. Dr. ": Conscious or structures for ?"

The interview with Prof. Dr. Lyre focuses primarily on the question of the "constitution of consciousness" from the point of view of structural realism, as he is considered a very well-known representative of this position in philosophy of science.
