This paper proposes a novel theoretical framework that unifies the arrow of time and the emergence of consciousness through entropy-induced quantum collapse. Building on the Entropy-Induced Collapse (EIC) model, the author introduces a thermodynamic information field \Phi(x,t) activated by local entropy gradients, which serves as a projection from an underlying abstract “information space.” This approach not only explains why time flows irreversibly in conscious experience but also offers experimental strategies involving quantum technologies and neurophysiological measurements. The work bridges physics, philosophy, and cognitive science, and is part of the broader EIC Model Series (2025), which aims to develop an integrated paradigm of information-based physical laws. All theoretical contributions are strictly intended for peaceful and ethically responsible applications.
