If consciousness is concrete, what are its physical properties? How much does a cubic centimetre of consciousness weigh? What is its mass? How does it react to heat, light, gravity? Is it a conductor or an insulator? If it gets wet, do I dry it off with a microfibre cloth or a paper towel? Can I paint it?

The brain?

But not all brains exhibit consciousness. Moreover, the brain is not a physical property of consciousness any more than electricity is a physical property of a light bulb.
