Consciouness is the building of a model of the world inside our heads. I don't need to look at the chair I'm sitting, or look at the street outside, or etc, to know it's there because my "model" tells me it's there. In that sense, all sential beeings have a model. More or less elaborate depending on how much senses the creature has (ex. animals have senses like us, were plant sense only temperature, gravity, sun-light,etc).
This is a profound talk, but it need some pictures or infography, because it is to difficult to follow without visual aid.

I simpathise with what he said, but not with the solution. It looks to me like all this is going to create is another political party, and it will soon turn into another clog in the wheel.
To me, the solution would be an all out "no vote". If on election day they add no votes. They would have no way to justify: parliament, senators, parties, goverment (as is) all together. All that, would just be big white buildings with nothing in them. Buildings that belong to the people. And it forced them to reform into a system that would really serve us, instead of serving themselves. I know this is (probably) impossible, and many believe we would have anarqy...but, when all else fails why not try the less obvious.
If we have the power to strike (and not work) when we are unsatisfied with our empoyer/company, why not use the same power (no vote) when we are unsatisfied with our goverment?

It's a real cool project, that I believe will benefit us greatly. However, we must take into account the political and economic repurcusions of this... The NSA already 'ears' everything in the world, and now someone's gonna be able to 'see' as well? Maybe some countries won't like to have all these 'eyes' on them, maybe they/we could use these eyes to spy on how much oil, merchandise, exports/imports on ships, trafic on airports, cars on a certain road, trucks on a specific factory, people at a stadium, etc... This technology is amazing, but it is also a two edge sword, and we need to be careful, and responsable, how we use it.
