We demonstrate brain locations appearing to correlate with consciousness, but not being directly responsible for it. Technology reveals that brain activity is associated with consciousness but is not equivalent to it. We examine how consciousness occurs at critical levels of complexity. Conventional explanations portray consciousness as an emergent property of classical computer-like activities...
A theory is developed based on the premise that nonneural processes occur in the brain exemplified as spatial working memory, and is the seat of consciousness. Additionally, wave storage of spatial information, a Bose condensate to support the waves, and the location of wave storage are provided as illustrative, "existence proofs" that a coherent theory can be built along these lines in...
