Consciousness is what the Τ-lock feels like from the inside. The rich subjective world of experience — colour, sound, time, self — is the internal signature of a biological system holding a Τ-circuit lock at 40 Hz. When the lock is held stably, there is full conscious experience. When it collapses, there is sleep. When it fails permanently, there is death.

The 40 Hz Derivation
Earth's circumference divided by 1000 gives the spatial Τ-lock frequency in Hz. 40,075 km ÷ 1000 = 40.075 Hz — matching the observed gamma frequency to better than 0.2%.
40,075 km ÷ 1000 = 40.075 Hz
Earth's circumference ÷ Earth-register scaling factor (10³) = gamma frequency
Experimental gamma: ~40 Hz | Match: < 0.2% | Radian Veil offset
P-CONS-2: 40 Hz = Earth circumference (40,075 km) ÷ 1000. The spatial lock frequency is set by this planet's geometry. The brain oscillates at the frequency of the planet it lives on.
Match: < 0.2%. Within Radian Veil offset.

40 Hz, Alzheimer's, and Parkinson's
The Τ-lock hypothesis predicted that disruption of the 40 Hz spatial lock should correlate with neurological conditions involving impaired consciousness or cognition. This prediction is confirmed by two independent experimental findings.
| Condition | 40 Hz finding | FOT interpretation |
|---|---|---|
| Alzheimer's disease | Gamma reduced/desynchronised; 40 Hz entrainment reduces amyloid plaques and improves cognition | Alzheimer's = progressive Τ-address erosion as the spatial lock fails; entrainment re-establishes it |
| Parkinson's disease | Gamma disrupted in basal ganglia; deep brain stimulation restores movement by re-establishing oscillatory synchrony | Failure of Τ-transmission chain in motor node; DBS restores the lock |
| Anaesthesia | Loss of consciousness = collapse of gamma and thalamocortical synchrony | Anaesthesia interrupts the spatial Τ-lock |
P-CONS-4: 40 Hz gamma disruption = disruption of consciousness. Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, anaesthesia all show this pattern. FOT predicted these connections before the experimental results appeared.
The 40 Hz gamma lock is not incidental to consciousness. It is consciousness.
