I have mentioned the use of “mindscape” by @citizenschallengev3 because the frequency of use is reading like a platitude. When I run across his use of mindscape I just think he doesn’t know what he wants to say. I don’t want to argue. It’s merely my observation.
IMO, what CC means with “mindscape” he means “our best guess” based on “memory” of stored sensory experiential information. It is the “mind” that is translating exterior and interior electro/chemical experiences by producing a visual mindscape of what you brain is able to produce.
As posted elsewhere Anil Seth; “The Neuroscience of Consciousness” explains how the brain processes information and what it can do with that information. The pattern of consciousness.
When I run across his use of mindscape I just think he doesn’t know what he wants to say.What I don't know, is how to have a genuine discussion with folks totally wrapped up in their EGO driven Gods and political agendas.
How to crack that shell, that’s a real mother… oh yeah, never mind. I promised Lausten I’d try to watch my potty mouth.
Or how to confront that egomaniacal willful ignorance and it’s stupid self-destructive belligerent dismissiveness and disregard for Earth’s Physical Reality because it interferes with their self-serving gluttonous desires.

Missing Key to Stephen Gould’s “Nonoverlapping Magisteria”
AUGUST 3, 2008 God flowing into the Wordhttp://citizenschallenge.blogspot.com/2008/08/god-flowing-into-word.html
I’ve been told I don’t understand the reality of the Bible. It’s been explained God acted infallibly through his human agents. At every stage along the Bible’s evolution God was there flowing into the pages to make it perfect.The last time I listened to this opinion an image came to mind: There was a patient in an operating room, undergoing brain surgery. The world’s foremost surgeon was there, a doctor of vast knowledge and skill. But, instead of performing the operation, the expert stands over a child giving step by step concise and complete directions, while the child performed the actual task. What are the chances of the child getting it right? Can it be any different when God communicates with myopic self-centered children?
Claiming the Bible is direct and undiminished from God’s bosom is to imply people can be infallible. Isn’t such a thing called hubris? Like adolescents who know it all, blind to every complexity, question or doubt. Or put another way, claiming the Bible is perfect, complete and infallible is like claiming a photo album can convey the truth of someone’s life to a stranger.

Hasn’t it been shown that our brain neurons extend far beyond the mindReferring to stuff like this - https://www.hopkinsmedicine.org/health/wellness-and-prevention/the-brain-gut-connection
I guess I am not understanding exactly what you r doing when you (with the physical universe being your starting point) “work back to the mind from that central perspective”.Purely evolutionary stand point. It started with star dust in a particular of a galaxy, that created a particular kind of solar system the created a particular kind of Earth Moon partnership that created the most fantastical gem in the Universe. We have coding in our body that's been handed down billions of years and hundreds of millions of years, folds within folds of cumulative harmonic process, cascading down Time, everyday bringing small and big changes, that join the cascade as time marches on.
Fractals, think fractal and responding to the environment you find yourself in, be you amoeba, bug, critter or mammal or primate or human or dolphin.
All I am is dancing on top of that until I and my gods melt back into it.
And then there’s dealing with my day to day to the best of my abilities.
Does any of that make sense?
Does that help?
Oh and along with the fractal thing is the mind.
I’m not just talking about the human brain, but where our human brain came from.
Remember our human brain is all hand-me-down components, sure parts got super boosted here and there, but there’s nothing truly unique or original about any part of it…
I can’t help but thinking through the awareness of the many structures that Evolution invented in order to create thousands and millions of different brains to produce their particular minds, in order to interact with the environments they found themselves within, and need to survive and prosper within.
How am I doing?
