The totality of the world as interacting field of being and experience belongs to a single 'wave function', and each individual experiencing, each life and consciousness as we understand them being its own local 'collapse' of that ongoing wave - such a notion 'explaining' all of the material and not so material entanglements of the embodied world still leaves open the question of what it is that brings about the collapse. Here it cannot be the 'observer' or 'consciousness' as if this were somehow coming from outside, but a necessity internal to the 'wave' itself which would then be a 'panpsychist' variation on the quantum wave of the analogy. Perhaps this is the price of allowing mind into the system - even if it is taken as an emergent, it is still present in an eminent, and unrecognisable by us, form from the very start.
