I like the quote "things aren't what they seem, nor are they otherwise". Let me ask you something else, do you watch Mr Ballen mystery videos? Two relevant ones pop to mind, Skinwalker Ranch in regards to Time, and the one he did about the spirit box that would end up corrupting the computer systems in the office of the professor that bought the box. Ingo Swan on the other hand seems that he managed to make the needle of a magnetometer move with his mind, the problem was that this device was built so that it would not move unless it was a very substantial force, it was built to detect EMP waves from nuclear explosions or cosmic events etc, and this guy managed to make the needle move SUBSTANTIALLY, AND drew out a completely accurate and detailed schematic of the entire aparatus, which was buried under some tens of feet of concrete and was completely surrounded by superconductive shielding and other conventional shielding in effort to mitigate any noise. He had also done other things with his remote viewing and telekenisis abilities.

The insourmountable obstacle is that consciousness is non-local. Heck though, consciousness implies a sophisticated intelligence emergent, akin to a computer simulation, which is a baseless assertion, the best description is awareness, and non local awareness specifically.
A growing body of empirical evidence suggests that human consciousness is nonlocal—i.e., it is not confined to specific points in space, such as brains and bodies, or specific moments in time, such as the present.

What is happening is that cross disciplinary education is lacking, so programming and awareness studies are pursued by specialists, who seemingly like the generational machine learning, they branch off in effort of penetrating the unknown in their specific direction, the question is, which specialty will be rendered redundant, yet programming cannot render awareness redundant, in effect, the most resilient, the Main, remains.
