But it was a memorable if unnerving experience during an LSD-induced trip that got me thinking.

Yeah, it's difficult to make sense of the freestyling word salad in that Frontiers article otherwise.
Quote:
Something it is like-ness is not in itself sufficient for consciousness. Rather it is to recognize that:
(i) energy, forces, and work are actualized,
(ii) they are expressions of difference, and
(iii) there is something it is like, intrinsically, to undergo actualized difference.
I use the term actualized difference to refer to the active, antagonistic nature of energy, forces and work in a way that encompasses Heraclitean cosmology, Aristotelian energeia, and contemporary scientific descriptions of energy.

Don't take it too seriously and instead appreciate it for its aesthetic value. He's an art professor after all.
