Perhaps. I can feel some insight, but you might be a bit quick here,  
in the terming.
Consciousness does not ask for a leap of faith, indeed, but any  
content (and thus sense) of consciousness might need it. The "reality  
of consciousness" does not need faith, but the "consciousness of a  
reality" might need it.

More precisely, I say that consciousness and matter emerges from
elementary arithmetic, *once* you bet on comp, that is the idea that
the brain or the body can be Turing emulated at some right level so
that you would remain conscious.

Could the incomplete portion of Godel's theorem be simply 1p ?

Hi Bruno Marchal 

Perhaps no leap of faith is required to
go from completeness to incompleteness (consciousness),

if subject = 1p= the incomplete portion of a system

consciousness = subject + object
consciousness = the incomplete (me,  1p) + what remains (the object of 
perception)

More precisely, I say that consciousness and matter emerges from 
elementary arithmetic, *once* you bet on comp, that is the idea that 
the brain or the body can be Turing emulated at some right level so 
that you would remain conscious.
