Consciousness interview

I came across a podcast about a scientist that researches consciousness, Dr. Giulio Tononi. Very interesting interview and less than 10 minutes long.

I tried to get through this but discovered it merely made me lose consciousness.
Largely, he seemed to be saying that being conscious was being awake, as in not-asleep.
I already knew that.

I see consciousness as direct perception, bypassing the usual thinking process.
Knowing without thinking.
