I think this is a cool concept that has actually been around for eons all the way back to Plato and Stoics in the West and Taoists and Buddhists in the East. Some modern Quantum physicists see a connection between the sub atomic realm and consciousnesses.

Here are a few notable quotes..
Consciousness cannot be accounted for in physical terms. For consciousness is absolutely fundamental.
— Erwin Schrödinger
The stuff of the world is mind-stuff.
— Arthur Eddington
We
do not find obvious evidence of life or mind in so-called inert
matter…; but if the scientific point of view is correct, we shall
ultimately find them, at least in rudimentary form, all through the
universe
— J. B. S. Haldane
Mind or something of the nature as mind must exist throughout the entire universe. This is, I believe, the truth.
— Julian Huxley
The
laws of physics leave a place for mind in the description of every
molecule… In other words, mind is already inherent in every electron,
and the processes of human consciousness differ only in degree and not
in kind.
— Freeman Dyson
That which we experience as mind…
will in a natural way ultimately reach the level of the wavefunction and
of the 'dance' of the particles. There is no unbridgeable gap or
barrier between any of these levels… It is implied that, in some sense, a
rudimentary consciousness is present even at the level of particle
physics.
— David Bohm
