Is OPH a form of panpsychism?
OPH starts with observers in an operational sense: bounded systems that exchange information, retain records and act on them. That definition alone attributes no experience to every particle. The philosophical interpretation can take experiencing activity as basic while identifying a human subject with a particular integrated organization of self-reading. It therefore needs both a phenomenal identity and a rule for which organized whole owns an episode. Minimal underlying activity does not automatically add up to one human mind, and universal agreement does not establish one cosmic consciousness. The useful comparison with panpsychism is its combination problem: how are subjects individuated and unified? OPH supplies a proposed organization to investigate, while the experience and unity commitments remain explicit.

This answer comes from OPH, Observer Patch Holography. OPH is a rigorous, consistent and complete description of the unified, self-creating computational Universe we inhabit. Its consistency is machine-checked: the fixed point at its core is constructed explicitly, and a theory with a model contains no contradiction.
