Kant’s Copernican Revolution
Daegene Song
Abstract
A number of philosophers and scientists have discussed the possibility of inseparability between the subject (i.e., the
observer) and the object (i.e., the observed universe). In particular, it has recently been proposed that this inseparability
may be obtained through the discrete physical universe being filled with the observer’s continuous consciousness
through quantum evolution with time going backwards. The proposal of a universe view with interwoven matter
and mind through cyclical time bears a resemblance to Immanuel Kant’s discussion of the Copernican Revolution in
philosophy, where the priority shifted from the object to the subject.
