A state of consciousness is whatever neurons happen to be ON or ACTIVE in an arbitrarily small interval of time. The information held in a system at a current time. That's a wild simplification. At least you must consider that the topology of the neurosis different from person to person (and in large enough amounts of time for the same person), the fact that nothing is as discrete as ON or OFF in the biological world and the possibility (as far as I know not refuted) that some neurons might carry more state than a single bit. I don't feel, by reading neuroscience papers, that we're in any wau close to a real understanding of how brains (let alone human brains) work.
