Hypothesis on the Informational Singularity of Consciousness: Orch-OR, Quantum Gravity, and the Preservation of Structural Order After Physiological Death

This hypothesis explores the fate of consciousness after physiological death within the Orchestrated Objective Reduction (Orch-OR) framework proposed by Penrose and Hameroff. Consciousness is treated as a quantum-gravitational pattern in neuronal microtubules. Upon death, the collapse of sustained quantum superpositions may trigger an informational singularity driven by the Bekenstein bound, rather than classical mass. Information is preserved holographically, with two possible outcomes: (1) entropic dissipation or (2) rapid unitary compression preserving negentropy and structural order. This offers a physically grounded perspective on the persistence of consciousness patterns in the cosmos, compatible with the holographic principle and unitarity.
