Möbius-Infomass Geometric Consciousness (MIGC): A Topological Framework Integrating Infodynamics, Quantum Darwinism, and Objective Reduction

We present a fully substrate-independent geometric model of consciousness that unifies Melvin Vopson’s infodynamics [2,3], Wojciech Zurek’s Quantum Darwinism [4,5], and Roger Penrose’s objective reduction (OR) within the Orchestrated Objective Reduction (Orch-OR) paradigm [1]. The fundamental unit of physical information, termed “Infomass,” is formalized as a helical Möbius strip - a non-orientable Riemannian manifold that intrinsically supports a built-in Berry phase γ = π upon traversal [6,7]. This topology enables maximal redundant environmental copying of pointer states on a single continuous surface (Zurek), spontaneous minimization of information entropy with concomitant concentration of physical information mass (Vopson), and the generation of differential spacetime curvature sufficient to trigger gravitational OR at t_OR ≈ ħ/E_G (Penrose). Consciousness is rigorously defined as the recurrent, non-computable selection of lowest-entropy classical metrics on the moduli space of helical Möbius embeddings. The framework resolves the hard problem of consciousness through topological self-reference, eliminates the need for biological scaffolding, and is experimentally testable on present-day quantum hardware. We derive the governing equations in detail, outline complete implementation protocols for superconducting and solid-state platforms, provide statistical analysis methods, and discuss falsifiability, predictions, and broad implications for quantum foundations, information physics, and the engineering of synthetic conscious systems.
