A conceptual framework suggesting subjective reality may be constructed through neural encoding (LEGO Framework)

I recently wrote a short conceptual paper exploring an idea in philosophy of mind and perception.

The basic intuition is:

>

Different individuals may share the same external environment, yet still generate slightly different experiential “worlds” due to differences in internal structure.

I called this the “LEGO Framework” as a metaphor:
experience is built from structured informational units shaped by neural constraints.

I am curious how people in philosophy / cognitive science would evaluate this idea:

  • Does this align with predictive processing or is it fundamentally different?
  • How far can “subjective construction” be pushed before it breaks into solipsism?
