In this concluding chapter, we drop in on a talk Annaka gave at a 2023 conference organized by Philip Goff and Andrei Buckareff at Marist College titled “Treating Consciousness as Fundamental,” in which she presents alongside other Lights On guests: Lee Smolin, Donald Hoffman, Sean Carroll, and Philip Goff. Annaka describes the evolution of her thinking over the course of working on this documentary series, and illustrates her most current view of a universe in which consciousness is fundamental. Annaka elaborates further on ways we might expand our methods of scientific experiment, while laying out her prediction about a scientific paradigm shift that is possibly underway.
