Abstract
This article was about the model for a very controversial edifice - the many-sided foundation for consciousness. In this study, consciousness was tied in with a platform, not a physical platform, of course, but a conceptual platform. This was because we are most comfortable imagining or visualizing an actual platform that has many connections to various parts of the brain, a sort of an old-fashioned telephone switchboard.
