Signals, Stories, and Butterflies: How We Understand Feelings

Linking bodily signals, prediction, language, concepts, and lived experience

A feeling may involve bodily signals, predictions, concepts, language, and personal history at once. This developing research note compares scientific and philosophical explanations without reducing experience to a single layer. Its source-selection method and review boundaries remain in progress.

The Ship of Theseus, with Memories: Personal Identity Over Time

Comparing biological, psychological, and narrative continuity

Bodies change, memories fade, and personal stories are revised, yet people usually experience themselves as continuing through time. This paper compares biological, psychological, and narrative explanations of that continuity. It asks what each explanation treats as essential and what evidence could support or challenge it. The proposed tests form a personal research map instead of reporting completed validation.

The Thread Through Time: Identity and Consciousness

A layered argument about persistence, experience, feedback, and computational models

People experience a continuing self even though bodies, memories, and circumstances change. This developing research note asks how identity, time, feedback, and consciousness might fit together across philosophy and computation. Definitions, counterarguments, experiments, and citations remain under review.
