Abstract
I sketch a line of thought about consciousness and physics that gives some
motivation for the hypothesis that conscious observers deviate - perhaps only
very subtly and slightly - from quantum dynamics. Although it is hard to know
just how much credence to give this line of thought, it does motivate a
stronger and more comprehensive programme of quantum experiments involving
quantum observers.

The current recommendation prototype on the Apollo Repository will be turned off on 03 February 2023. Although the pilot has been fruitful for both parties, the service provider IKVA is focusing on horizon scanning products and so the recommender service can no longer be supported. We recognise the importance of recommender services in supporting research discovery and are evaluating offerings from other service providers.
