Ah, fair enough, my point was not that orchor was correct or that it was a mechanism for consciousness though or even that portions of it might be applicable to a future theory of consciousness simply that eeg arising from microtubule function may well be an example of emergence in the brain.

The same can be seen in ant megacolonies and simulations of ethical behavior in agent models.
