My Big TOE: AUO evolves into AUM

AUO mutates to form unique, specialized mental spaces consisting of their own memory and computation-space: separate dimensions, or separate realities. "There may be dimension within dimension, reality within reality, like a set of Russian Matryoshka dolls or perhaps the concentric layers of an onion."

Each subset is contained within, derived from, and dependent upon the superset.
[less constrained (more degrees of freedom)]<--->[more constrained (fewer degrees of freedom)]
NPMR --> NPMRN (a subset of NPMR) --> various physical/non-physical realities (mental spaces of NPMRN, including our own PMR universe) 
 "When AUO eventually grows up and evolves into an extremely complex and highly ordered set of specialized reality cells performing specialized functions, it becomes an entirely different type of entity," what will now be called Absolute Unbounded Manifold (AUM), but at its core "is the same basic AUO consciousness energy sporting a more evolved level of awareness, lower entropy, and greater functionality."


Campbell asserts we're living at the dawn of an evolutionary and cultural transition because for the first time we humans can consciously and deliberate accelerate our consciousness by tinkering with the (biochemistry of) our mechanisms of conscious perception through genetic engineering and psychotropic drugs, aided by technologies like artificial intelligence and computer networks. In other words, the primary driver of evolution will no longer be random mutation and natural selection, but self-directing human intellect. 

This process will move faster and faster, but it remains to be seen whether it will raise or lower entropy. The determining factors? The nature, quality, stability, and balance of the system.
Edit: or maybe it's like this:
