Ep. 49 - Is Consciousness "Emergent"? | Dr. David Braddon-Mitchell

About this episode

Does consciousness "emerge" from physical phenomena? What does "emerge" even mean? If we grant that consciousness emerges, and that it has a distinct ontological status, doesn't that imply dualism?

To help me answer these questions, I spoke with Dr. Braddon-Mitchell at the University of Sydney.
