“The brain must build partial models of everything it experiences, including itself and its own abilities and its own attention, which is imperfect because it is unaware of itself on a cellular level.” I am unaware, therefore I am aware.
There is problem with this explanation. Something crucial is missing from the equation. Awareness cannot originate from within the physical universe, but it might originate from the life which animates and imbues matter with motivational force. Life’s spark originates external to the physical universe. This is the model that makes the most sense to me.
On what scale can awareness be measured? What activities move the needle on that scale for healthy subjects (not the brain injured)?
