The words, ideas of words, and ideas of objects are all themselves (not necessarily simple) objects in my philosophy. Consciousness would itself consist of a object or be composed of objects. So any of these could interact with other in objects quantum mechanical experiments. So consciousness interacting with quantum mechanical experiments is compatible with my philosophy. I know some physicists believe such interactions occur. I cannot say how, but it is not incompatible with my philosophy. How such physicists claims can be true if there was no consciousness for some time after the big bang is mysterious to me. Of course, one possibility is that such interactions only started after consciousness evolved.
