is constituted in both an outer and an inner aspect.

Following Whitehead’s terminology, one may call the outer aspect of a process
the nexus and the inner aspect the texture. 2/2

Reflection: Why the Systemological-Structural Panpsychism Eliminates All Forms of the Combination Problem

In Systemological-Structural Panpsychism the following holds:

Qualia are system-internal structural modes.
Therefore, 1/4

And finally:

Structure is the ontological unity of a token.
Thus, there are also no structureless elements that would first have to be combined in order to form a larger unity.

there is no need for a network of (smaller) qualia that would have to be combined in order to constitute a unified experience.

Subject-being is a mode of system organization.
Ergo, there is no emergent mega-subject that 2/4

Aphorism: Consciousness Is Metaphysically Constitutive for Dynamic Systems

A dynamic system is, among other things, metaphysically constituted by consciousness.

Other metaphysical constituents of a dynamic system are structure and the change of that structure.

Thus, for dynamic systems, consciousness is a necessary ontological mode.
