Emergent Time

About Jeff Molner

Jeff Molner is an independent researcher, philosopher of science, and author working at the intersection of physics, consciousness, and philosophy. His work explores the deep structure of time, awareness, and reality through a unified theoretical framework that challenges prevailing assumptions in both fundamental physics and consciousness studies.

He is the creator of the Foundations of Awareness framework and the author of the trilogy beginning with Emergent Time, followed by PanQualism and Awareness Mathematics. This work proposes that awareness—not matter—is the primary ontological substrate from which time, structure, and physical reality emerge.

His research integrates physics, philosophy, information theory, and systems thinking into a cohesive model of emergent reality. Central to this effort is the formulation of testable constructs, including the proposed Molner’s Constant, aimed at bridging theoretical insight with experimental validation.

Alongside his theoretical work, Jeff brings decades of executive leadership experience across industry, government, and defense sectors. He is known for translating highly abstract concepts into structured, testable systems that can be refined, implemented, and measured over time.

Jeff lives in Ohio with his wife and daughter. His current focus is on advancing the mathematical formalization of awareness, pursuing experimental pathways for validating key predictions of the framework, and developing the next phases of the Evolution of Awareness and Discovery trilogies.
