Abstract

In this short note using the analogy with the recent resolution of the black hole information paradox we conjecture the order parameter for the state of consciousness based on the notion of the Page curve and the Page time. The entanglement between the state of the brain and time series of neuronal firing as well as the non-orthogonality of the functional connectomes play a key role.
