Consciousness and synchronicity.

The brain is described as a system whose states are subject to quantum uncertainty. Conscious observation brings individual states into being from the multiple states possible at a given instant. This gives rise to information, which is the content of consciousness. Synchronicity is the principle by which a single state is generated by conscious observation throughout the brain at a given instant. It is the equivalent of the non-local interaction in quantum theory. Both psychodynamic and cognitive applications of the proposed model are described.
