What are some of the newer theories on the nature of consciousness? : askscience
A Neuroscientist's Radical Theory of How Networks Become Conscious - Wired Science - Neuroscientist Christof Koch, chief scientific officer at the Allen Institute for Brain Science, thinks he might know the answer. According to Koch, consciousness arises within any sufficiently complex, information-processing system. All animals, from humans on down to earthworms, are conscious; even the internet could be. That’s just the way the universe works.
