We don't ground our meanings in an outside reality, but in a unified model of reality. Whenever something refers to that model, it is experienced as meaningful.

Does the model itself has to have any grounding in reality except sufficient predictive power?

The universe can only present you with (noisy, sparse) patterns. All the reality you experience is given by regularities your mind discovers and represents over these patterns.

If our brain works on the same physical principles as the rest of the universe then *discovered regularities* by the human brains should be of the same nature as *presented regularities* elsewhere in the nature, right? 1/2

Is the difference we think about hidden in the relationship between geometry (shape) and physics (function) of the information discovered/ presented? 2/2

Not quite! Both the universe and the brain implement functions; logic is discrete and geometry is continuous (approximation of limits of infinite series). The set of functions that are reachable for a brain are probably not the same as for the substrate universe.

In layman's terms, one tends to see different settings of both mathematical and physical components of functions / informations.

No idea what you mean!

Well, it’s probably weird, but I do imagine information (in the quantum world) as a particular arrangement of forces (and energies) that also create a geometric structure. This complex is “read” in various structures of the nature differently(brain x tree x AI etc.)...

I suspect that the forces and energies in your world view are a mythology? Or do you have a working model about how to make force and energy?

I don't think being part of a moving wave function is a mythology.

Can you clearly derive and express what it means to be part of a moving wave function, or is this more of an intuition sparked by the revelations of generations of authorities, bestowed on you by school and scripture?
