As I understand it, it is proposed that consciousness is the brain performing a play on a stage, the platform, the working memory, learning to solve a problem.

As I understand it, it is proposed that consciousness is the brain performing a play on a stage, the platform, the working memory, learning to solve a problem. Like children playing with their toys and dolls to learn about their world, the social and the physical. The toys and dolls are sensory inputs, mental states, ideas and so on. So they are phenomena distinct from consciousness. Thank God, I can still confuse people with the dumb question, what that strange thing in their head is, they call 'red'. But then again, most don't want to play this game anyway.
