  1. I dont think that human consciousness is limited to brain's ability to process all sorts of information, which generates of an experience of being conscious in a human way. Animals' brains process interception and perception, they have emotions but they do not have an awareness to be alive nor awarnes of existential condition, inescapabilitt of death etc. Yes, we have the cortex and especially prefrontal cortex, animals do not have. It is a place of human reasoning, planing, abstract thinking etc., which has an executive function and it is anatomically located but a question remains open of what organises, governs proceses in a brain and human body, as brain and body are highly interconnected. What is this underlying, intricate process, this "inner movement", misterious flow, which causes such a buitiful "symphony" of reactions physical, chemical, electrical, atomic, subatomic etc. also in a brain, which in a subjective way is felt : l'm alive and concious & we call life? It cannot be 0-1 or even quantum because there is something, which also organises quantum level from which quantum emerges? What is the deepest underlying, organising process? On which, the deepest level does it happen? What is matter? Is it an information flow? Intelligent flow?  What is so called spiritual as opposed to so called material? Being too reductionistic doesn't help. It is limiting things to our current knowledge, which steams from conscious experience.
