I knew about similar split brain experiments, and although I agree to the illusory component of consciousness, these nonetheless do not answer my original question on the observing component of it. Thank you for sharing!



I was referring to the observing component itself being an illusion (as a split-brain patient seemingly has two of those). If that component is also a byproduct of physical processes, then your “observer” being attached to your body is self-evident.
