I think I do myself a disservice by comparing myself to Steve Jobs and Walt Disney and human beings that we've seen before. It should be more like Willy Wonka...and welcome to my chocolate factory.
Consciousness itself provides perhaps the best argument that there are intrinsic properties, and this is exactly why consciousness appears as so troubling or even alien to the scientific picture of the world which deals exclusively with relational or structural features, leaving aside any attempt to grapple with intrinsic natures. This is a positive feature so long as science is dealing with, as Eddington puts it, ‘meter readings’ or the relations amongst observable dealing with events. But it prevents science from being able to even begin to address the problem of consciousness. Maybe this is the ultimate source of the explanatory gap, which shows the limits of the methodology of empirical science.
