ABSTRACT
Information
was a frequently used concept in many fields of investigation. However, this
concept is still not really understood, when it is referred for instance to
consciousness and its informational structure. In this paper it is followed the
concept of information from philosophical to physics perspective, showing
especially how this concept could be extended to matter in general and to the
living in particular, as a result of the intimate interaction between matter
and information, the human body appearing as a bipolar informed-matter
structure. It is detailed on this way how this concept could be referred to
consciousness, and an informational modeling of consciousness as an
informational system of the human body is presented. Based on the anatomic architecture
of the organism and on the inference of the specific information concepts, it
is shown that the informational system of the human body could be described by
seven informational subsystems, which are reflected in consciousness as
corresponding cognitive centers. These results are able to explain the main
properties of consciousness, both the cognitive and extra-cognitive properties
of the mind, like that observed during the near-death experiences and other
similar phenomena. Moreover, the results of such a modeling are compared with
the existing empirical concepts and models on the energetic architecture of the
organism, showing their relevance for the understanding of consciousness.
