It seems to be possible to be in a conscious state without consciously thinking about anything at all. Presumably consciousness is created by a subconscious process. I can't say much more than that it's possible for information-processing systems (such as the human brain) to be conscious. My guess is that consciousness is a non-physical, emergent property, that only exists while a certain component of the information processing system is operating in a particular way.
