You say your brain is a complicated computer and your senses are the IO. Would I be right to say that time is also another form of input to our brain hence making it another IO? Would you also say that it is possible then to model our brains as a function and the IO as arguments? Does a function have consciousness or is it the application of the function what gives it consciousness?
