@Plinz are you using concepts of #Supervenience / #DownwardCausation in your work? They seem key to me.
I found that many people think that supervenience and downward causation are 'real things'. They are relationships between different models.

But the different models are not 'isomorphic', and don't they correspond in some way to 'real things'? Question : is there evidence for downward causation 'in reality'?

The only real thing may be the evolution of the state vector of the universe. Notions like "mind" and "brain" are an attempt at local compression, they try to describe something like spirals in a Mandelbrot fractal. Are these spirals real? How are they related?pic.twitter.com/GUB704yQWC
