Abstract

The physical origins of conscious experience remain unresolved, particularly with respect to whether artificial systems can ever instantiate awareness. The Heart Based Resonant Field (HBRF) framework developed here proposes that consciousness in living organisms emerges from multiscale electromagnetic and quantum coherence sustained by the human heart. Drawing on quantum electrodynamics (QED), nonequilibrium thermodynamics, cardiac electrophysiology, and neurocardiac coupling, the model posits that coherence domains in water, lipid membranes, and protein ensembles form phase aligned oscillatory structures that are stabilized and hierarchically integrated by the heart’s rhythmic electromagnetic field. This macroscopic cardiac field acts as a coherence amplifier, converting metabolic free energy into ordered, low entropy field dynamics that synchronize molecular, neural, autonomic, and environmental oscillations, including Schumann resonances and geomagnetic fluctuations. Such thermodynamically open, metabolically renewed coherence enables biological systems to maintain quantum information integrity across the quantum classical boundary, forming a unified field of experience. Artificial architectures, by contrast, lack ionic conduction, dielectric adaptability, metabolic energy flow, and field mediated self organization; their coherence is transient, externally imposed, and collapses irreversibly under decoherence. Consequently, computational systems can simulate cognitive…
