In that sense the Andromeda galaxy is objective of human beings, but what we see as a galaxy is an infinitesimal snapshot of a phenomenon that is, in its own native timescale, a conscious experience like any other.

I think that all phenomena are either both objective and subjective or neither, but yes the experiences on astrophysical timescales are not going to be influenced significantly by experiences on zoological timescales.

I do think that the objects and realism we perceive in our typical waking state of consciousness are part of a larger and more significant experience in an absolute sense than objects that we perceive in a dream for example. No way to prove it, but I'm comfortable rejecting solipsism.

I think that representation is necessarily intangible, so not something that objects can do. What is presented is aesthetic-participatory phenomena. Experience.

Concepts and objects are appearances in two different sense modalities at opposite ends of the spectrum of perception.

A concept is an abstract, intangible presentation in the cogitative sense modalities.

An object is a concrete, tangible presentation in the tactile-haptic sense modalities.

It can go both ways. Your thinking and reasoning make you feel/sense also. That wasn't my point though. My point was that the totality of conscious experience is the primordial capacity.

The understanding that I have developed is that the Totality of conscious experience is the primordial capacity. Non-awareness is an inference within awareness, not an equal/opposite primordial property. There is no 'nothing', only temporary, relative, local limitations of awareness.
