[MD] Computers vs. Brains

[Arlo Bensinger]

[Ham]
But conscious awareness is not simply recorded data. Being-aware 
presumes an organic locus of sensibility -- the individuated self.

[Arlo]
So tell me. According to your well-thought out metaphysics, how does 
this "being-aware" or "conscious awareness" come to be embedded in 
the organic matter of our neural synapses? Is it floating in nearby 
space and somehow latches onto nearby neural energy? Is it "placed 
there" deliberately, the way I might put a can of beer in my fridge?

Is it part of the human organism before the organism develops a 
brain? If not, how does the individual organism acquire it? From 
where does it acquire it?
