It identifies phenomenal quality with a specific mathematical object (the algebra-state pair on a causal diamond in algebraic quantum field theory) and derives three experimental protocols with pre-registered failure conditions.

The short version: take the "intrinsic nature" intuition from Russellian monism seriously, ask what mathematical object could play that role, and discover that constraint-based reasoning forces you to a unique answer. Then show that this answer dissolves the composition problem, generates temporal phenomenology from diamond geometry, and predicts specific measurable differences from IIT (overlapping conscious regions vs. exclusion) and GNW (experience without global broadcast).

The paper is ~35 pages, mathematically involved but with interpretive boxes and discipline-specific reading guides. I'm actively seeking collaborators in anesthesiology, epilepsy surgery, and psychedelic research to run the protocols.

I'd especially value pushback from mathematical physicists on the AQFT formalization and from neuroscientists on whether the effective-theory bridge actually constrains the empirical predictions or is doing post-hoc work. Tell me what breaks.
