Consciousness is your awareness of yourself and the world around you. Consciousness spans the global brain within a highly integrated and reciprocally connected system. It is a binary system. The base part of the system is hardwired, hardwired; the other is not hardwired. In a convolutional network, each neuron receives input from a small local group of the pixels in the input image. Neurons of the same color use the same kernel filter and share the same weights. A CNN processes image and speech recognition. Its built-in convolutional layer reduces the high dimensionality of images without losing its information. When we see an idea, we automatically divide it into many small sub-images and analyze them individually. We right-size all images. The layers are then tightly meshed for the final viewing and classifying.
Your Global Neural Workspace is the conscious state. It is a non-linear network ignition area where recurrent processing amplifiers are located. Local processors globally access information. Neural Networks build local and global symmetries by establishing globally valid regional balances.
Global Workspace is a theater of the mind. Conscious content is a bright spotlight on the stage of immediate memory. Attention is focused on its location. This sunny spot is focused on consciousness. The theater lights are turned off when the spotlight of consciousness is switched on.
Consciousness can not simply be reduced to neural activity. It is more complicated than that. Consciousness depends on the established cognitive frame of reference, with every thought you take and every move you make. It’s neurons that create a mental frame of reference that creates consciousness. A web of integrated information networks handles thoughts as they are born—ditto for the incoming data bits and bytes.
Your consciousness is a product of how densely neuronal networks are connected across the brain. The more neurons that interact with one another, the higher the degree of consciousness. Consciousness is a function of your entire brain. Energy cannot be created or destroyed. It can only be changed from one form to another. The brain uses a lot of energy. Individual cortical neurons respond to stimuli only in a restricted visual field region known as the receptive field.
Both hemispheres of the brain include a visual cortex. They are within the cerebral cortex. Visual information is processed here. It is located in the occipital lobe. The eyes see things. The cerebral cortex is the processor of things seen.
Consciousness is the result of large parts of your brain working together. Your consciousness is a collaborative, autonomous, dynamic process. Brain signals, over time, combine, reconfigure, recombine, and fade away to provide you with compelling thoughts and visions. This eclectic process reveals, decodes, and clarifies your version of reality. You get to decide every time.
The relationship between attention and consciousness. Consciousness is a non-linear function. Stimulus salience triggers your alert. First, you see it; then you decide to make up your mind. You may choose right, or you may decide wrong. The right choice is only a heartbeat away. The right decisions often turn out bad. Customs, habits, and mores. Mores are always a group thing. No group, no mores to contend with.
The Event Originatator listed His rules and regulations a long time ago. At
the same time, policies and procedures were put in place. Answer book provided. First to the Jews, then to all the rest.
YOU ARE IN PLAY; DEAL WITH IT.
Evil is on the killing floor 24/7 to knock out the Event Originator’s rules, regulations, policies, and procedures and to take you out too.
You are under attack with every move you make and every breath you take. Remember, the Event Originator writes things down and keeps score.
