I wasn't accusing you of taking any of those positions, I was asking about them because i wasn't sure where you were coming from.
Either consciousness is how we experience our brain activity or it is something else. If you agree that it is the former, why do you need something beyond a color being how we experience the light wavelengths that come through our eyes and are processed through the brain. Why, because what would be the function of the brain if the organism was not aware of the results of the activity. Our brain is very complex and we have evolved to this.
Is consciousness completely explained, no. But if it is all neurological, then the eventual answer will be found there. (or not)
Do you have a different theory for subjective experience?
You are going through this q & a without stating your position, so it becomes difficult to answer without know what the objective is, and I am answering at times what I think you are asking, erroneously at times I am sure.
