I appreciate the kind words. I think that will be someone else's book. My next serious book will be about consciousness.

2023 version

Integrating with other NCC models (Fig 2): RPT handles unstructured sensory experience → CEEing stitches them into coherence pre-reflective experiences → GNWT/HOT broadcast select bits for reflection & report. 8/8

That pattern fits my CEEing model: gestalt cortex fuses raw input with memories, motives & expectations, yielding coherent effortless experiences that feel “given,” not constructed—like invisible AR glasses painting meaning onto the world. 7/8

Meta-analysis of differential synchrony studies (Fig 1) highlights Gestalt cortex & posterior medial cortex, where sensory inputs meet personal context. 6/8

Neural synchrony measures how two brains’ signals rise/fall together while they watch the same story. Regular synchrony shows shared experience; differential synchrony zooms in on where groups diverge, isolating their unique p-interpretations. 5/8

Subjective experience also integrative: moments blend across time, space, & meaning. Your brain weaves memories, motives, & context together with sensory input, so the now already carries bits of then and next. 4/8

Subjectivity is idiosyncratic: what seems like plain fact to me may be “interpretation” to you. Hidden, effortless p-interpretations flow beneath the surface; deliberate r-interpretations float above. 3/8

Most neural correlates of consciousness (NCC) work asks “did you see the flash?”—great for stimulus detection, terrible for capturing what the moment felt like. My new TiCS piece focuses on the stream of consciousness itself & why people see things differently. Link bit.ly/4doNZhT
