Brain states are frequently represented using a unidimensional scale measuring the richness of subjective experience (level of consciousness). This description assumes a mapping between the high-dimensional space of whole-brain configurations and the trajectories of brain states associated with changes in consciousness, yet this mapping and its properties remain unknown. We combined whole-brain...
The scope of human consciousness includes states departing from what most of\nus experience as ordinary wakefulness. These altered states of consciousness\nconstitute a prime opportunity to study how global changes in brain activity\nrelate to different varieties of subjective experience. We consider the problem\nof explaining how global signatures of altered consciousness arise from...
