In post-quantum field theory the classical local gauge field beables Au(x) directly back-react on their advanced and retarded quantum information pilot waves. This is not the case in conventional RELATIVISTIC quantum field theory, contrary to a wrong critique made by some.
In my theory, the advanced destiny <f|Au(x)> and retarded history <Au(x)|i> pilot waves would then experience qualia. The retarded waves responsible for memories and the advanced waves responsible for intuition and creativity.
I am using Rod Sutherland's locally real weak measurement notation.

Stan,They are measuring light emitted from brain slices of different animals, apparently being emitted from axons when proximally stimulated by glutamate.I don't think Walter would have entertained light being functionally or even physically propagated thru whole brain tissue, but I imagine if excited microtubules in axons are emitting any radiation(as Anirban Bandyopadhyay showed with a range of RF frequencies in isolated microtubules, http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4252892/pdf/srep07303.pdf )then such radiation would excite modes in nearby water (and other molecules) that would propagate throught the neuropil. This would be, as I think Walter and Vitiello suggested, via the electric dipole moment of water (& that of other molecules).Light produced by microtubules, aka biophotons, would apparently be just another frequency of stimulated emission of the many that are reported above.With respect to select frequencies of visible light, the Italian physicists particularly entertain some locally entrained resonant coupling of light and water dipole moment, but other RF modes would couple with water in select bands for propagating long range effects, I think.Such would be a way of integrating Hameroff's and Freeman's physical intuitions without having to resort to exotic QM theory as with Penrose - instead relying on standard quantum electrodynamics. That is by linking the trans-neuropil excitatory axons and their resonant microtubules with field propagation in the neuropil.If there are simpler, less speculative explanations for the various physical chemical microtubule behaviors that Hameroff has found in collaboration with people like Tuszynski and Bandyopadhyay, neuroscientists should test those first. Freeman has provided the obvious venue with his type of cognition studies, measurements, analysis and implicated quantum field effects.
