What would be "receiving" such a message? I'm not sure we ever really see anything like that as is, subjective experience sans brain activity (and why would you consider the generation of a field to be direct, whereas our other methods are not, what's the difference - fundamentally or in function?). From my pov, that would definitely establish that qualia -was not- mechanical. Why would we forget once the field had been disabled? I mean, obviously, you don't have to have the answers, but it's fun to muse over.
