This is fascinating stuff, but what it means for how we think about conscious experience is quite open for discussion. We can't jump to either the consclusion that our conscious experience is not a "stream" or that the brain "fills in" the gaps.
It's been a long time since I've read about this stuff, but there's work by Daniel Dennett (http://cogprints.org/267/1/fillin.htm http://cogprints.org/267/1/fillin.htm), and Alva Noe (http://www.alvanoe.com/action-in-perception/ http://www.alvanoe.com/action-in-perception/) that's quite relevant.
