Understanding the Relationship Between Internal and External States in a Universe
57:03 - 1:04:43 (07:39)
This podcast dives into the different types of states that exist within a universe and how they interact with each other in terms of probability and movement using the metaphor of a single-celled organism.

The concept of a Markov blanket, a boundary that separates internal states from external states, can be applied to non-equilibrium physics and steady-state thermodynamics in order to study the dynamics and equations of motion that describe the states within the blanket.

Summary
The concept of a Markov blanket, a boundary that separates internal states from external states, can be applied to non-equilibrium physics and steady-state thermodynamics in order to study the dynamics and equations of motion that describe the states within the blanket. This approach reveals the existence of four types of states within any given universe: internal, external, surface, and the Markov blanket itself.

Summary
The concept of panpsychism is discussed, suggesting that everything in the universe has consciousness, including inanimate objects such as an oil drop, due to its autonomous states. This perspective provides a new way of understanding the world and consciousness within it.
