this sounds great

Thanks for sharing, also found this recent study that could be connected: elifesciences.org/articles/102...

I guess it can be different in many ways like memory capabilities, connectedness, content, or even beyond content to phenomenological aspects like Jennifer Windt has recently proposed.

You are right, the individual an methodological differences in probing consciousness is also important for anesthesia. Here the additional problem might be that people cannot always be awakened to collect experience reports. But maybe people can be trained to recall more? What do you think about it?

Thanks a lot Andre. Just discovered your wonderful article "Are we really unconscious in 'unconscious' states?". I agree with you and suspect sleep to be a conscious state as well, just a different mode of consciousness with lots of forgetfulness and periods of unresponsiveness to the environment.

I would be really interested in connecting with you, would you be open for a Zoom call in the coming weeks? My work email is benjamin.stucky@pharma.uzh.ch

You make some similar points in the paper, so it would have been nice to include it 🙈.
I only used the metadata of the DREAM database, so I can't say much about the EEG part of it. But it is really wonderful to have this data openly available. Thanks a lot for contributing to it 🙏

Wow, thanks a lot Bjørn for pointing me to this wonderful work of yours and collegues. I sadly missed it, otherwise I would have cited it.
Presenting one of your insightful EEG Lempel-Ziv complexity papers in a journal club lead me to do this review and analysis.

Thank you Santosh for this wonderful summary of current affairs and the remedy, a change of consciousness.

Thanks for sharing. And even the Libet experiments do not prove that there is no free will. For example the brain activity before a decision could also reflect a decision process:

Exactly, and it pushes reality to some unknown other without answering what reality would then be. Maybe some are attracted to this concept since they feel helpless and want to have a reason for it?
