That was an interesting clip Molly thanks for shareing. I would say though that questions about conciousness would need to be fully, I think there are marked differancs between asking what conciosness is, and asking how it works.
Dan Dennett in this clip apeared to me to be talking more about concious desicions, or acting conciously and the differances between this and the automatic process that our brains take without our concious say so, or perhaps unconcious process of the brain. Which really does not answer the question you posed. So I would say that I explain conciouness as a property of the phycial brain, and I would say that to be concioues means merely to know that you exist as an independant enterty, and can tell that there are others around who like wise exists as individual entities.
