Within the blink of an eye experiments

From Aware Theory

The science of superimmortality predicts that unconsciously there is no awareness of the passing of time. It also predicts that continuity of consciousness in different bodies can be produced with continuity in the structure and functioning of different bodies over any finite amount of time. This subjectively means that you can start reading this sentence here, now, with this body, and experience finishing reading this sentence somewhere else, at a different point in time, with another different body. There will be no awareness of the passing of time, change in spacial position, or the change in the body. To your consciousness these changes will appear to occur in less time than it takes to blink. These predictions are falsifiable through a number of different experiments.


There are a number of variations to the "within the blink of an eye experiments". These variable conditions are with;

  1. The amount of time between the death of the original and the creation of the cidentireplica or videntireplica. See: Blink of an eye time experiments.
  2. The amount of original's matter and its placement in the identireplica, cidentireplica or videntireplica. See: Blink of an eye matter experiments.
  3. The exactness of the replication. See: Blink of an eye structure and functioning experiments.
  4. The exactness of environmental conditions before and after the replication. See: Blink of an eye environmental experiments.
  5. The amount of subjective continuity between the original and the cidentireplica or videntireplica. See: Blink of an eye subjective continuity experiments.
  6. The consequences to the consciousness and ixperiencitness of the cidentireplica or videntireplica due to the continuation of a live conscious original. See: Blink of an eye consequences experiments.
  7. The consequences to the consciousness and ixperiencitness of the cidentireplica or videntireplica due to the numerous replication of "blink of an eye experiments" using the same original. See: Blink of an eye replication experiments.
  8. The exactness of physical laws in the future compared to the present. See: Blink of an eye physical laws modification experiments.

For simplicity of experimentation the assumption is the the physical laws will be the same in the future as they are at the present. The science of superimmortality at the present does not have a way of predicting what will happen to each experiment given different physical laws for the original and videntireplicas without the use of experimentation.

Superimmortality predictions of blink of an eye experiments given an original and identireplicas of this original:

  1. The no matter how much time has past between the death of the original and the creation of the identireplica, the identireplica will think and say that he is the original, behave like the original, and have the original's ixperiencitness. The identireplica will have no internal reasons unless he was told and this information was stored in the structure and functioning of the brain, to believe that any time has past say when asked and will believe that no time has past, unless he was given good reason to believe other wise.
  2. There will be no awareness of a change in bodies
  3. There will be no awareness of the number of bodies producing this continuation of self through out space and time.
  4. There can be many different types of awareness of change in bodies, space, and time with modification, to the structure and functioning of the brain/ nervous system/ body.
  5. The original can believe that there were changes to itself in terms of bodies, space, and time by changing the structure and functioning of the brain/ nervous system/ body of the original itself.
  6. If the original dies then there is life after death for the original in this cidentireplica or videntireplica.
  7. If the original does not die then there is multiplicity of self.
