i was doing some research on this subject over the summer, in preparation for my dissertation which takes place in the second semester of the final year and i've yet to come across a simple and more easily explained definition of this theory. it would be of great help to me not forgeting also that it would put me out of my misery if you could do this, as well as give me examples of what constitutes or defines existentialism, according to you

the best and most simplified and straightforward answer gets the points

Things are crazy topsy-turvy and life makes no sense at all. How do we know anything really has meaning or are we all just little performers in sombody's big retarded joke of a circus?

If we developed the technique to transport your mental life to an android would you undergo the procedure?

It is not clear h o w we may transport your consciousness. For if we simply copied the information held in your brain configuration, the disturbing consequence would be that "you" die and only a copy of you is realized in the machine.

The question: the discontinuity of mental life offers us this fear -- that we sometimes drift into deep sleep and disrupt our chain of consciousness -- which most intuitively is a necessary condition for personal identity. So that each morning we may be another doppelganger, acting out our life AS IF the memories and ambitions we seem privileged to are indeed our own.

Is survival in the form of a virtually identical copy enough?
Would you discontinue your mental life after seeing your copy awake successfully?

If not -- sweet dreams.
