Watch a 20-minute conference talk from the Models of Consciousness Conferences exploring how Minimal Self-Consciousness (MSC) relates to perspectival de se information and our ability to self-locate in logical space. Examine how phenomenal information, even at its most basic level, provides more detailed insights than possible world information by defining not just what world we exist in, but our position within it. Learn about the subjective nature of experiential awareness and its connection to first-person expression, while considering cases where the self isn't directly perceived and experiences transcend specific temporal or spatial boundaries. Discover how perspectival de se information can bridge the gap between subjective experience and selfless consciousness, supporting the concept that representations of self, time, and space aren't prerequisites for conscious experience.
