Phenomenal Overflow and Separatism of Consciousness
Is it possible to separate phenomenal consciousness and access consciousness experientially?The proposi-tion of phenomenal overflow suggests that the contents of phenomenal consciousness exceed the capacity of access consciousness,indicating that they have different neural implementations,thus supporting separatism.The proposi-tion of phenomenal sparse,on the other hand,argues that the overflow proposition can be resolved through explana-tions of blindsight,attention,and illusions,suggesting that consciousness is essentially sparse,thereby supporting anti-separatism.In my opinion,although the proposition of phenomenal sparse rejects the idea of overflow,its ar-guments do not refute it.On the contrary,phenomenal overflow seems more reasonable,thus supporting separa-tism.
