Rupert: I’m only modeling vision, so far.

Ralph: The visual part of the mental field may be a very thin slice of the morphogenetic field that is in very close resonance with the electromagnetic field.

Rupert: I think that if we take the idea of interfacing planes—the old idea of different levels—and think of the planes as fields, then we do actually have a series of stratified levels.

First there are the quantum matter fields, which have to do with the strong and weak nuclear forces in atoms and which determine the shape and structural properties of atoms and molecules. They only work at very short ranges.

Then there is the electromagnetic field, which is an organizing field of more complex structures. The electromagnetic field actually holds together atoms, molecules, crystals, and everything else. One could say that the electromagnetic field is associated with the morphic fields of molecules and crystals.

At the level of plants, there’s a morphogenetic field of vegetative growth that somehow interfaces with the electromagnetic field. In animals, over and above the morphogenetic fields are the fields of instincts and movements; they organize and coordinate the activities of the nervous system.

There are hierarchically higher planes above these, such as perceptual fields and fields of higher level understanding. There may be planes of fields that are like the levels you spoke of, Ralph, but in a nested hierarchy. The gravitational field embraces all; it’s the universal field.
