A Design of Consciousness

Consciousness is said to be mysterious... I find the best way to understand something is to build it. I'm a nerd go figure. So join me as I delve into the works of philosophers like David Chalmers and Daniel Dennet, neuroscientists like Bernard J Baars and Stanislas Dehaene, and even Physicists like Roger Penrose. Based on my understanding of AI and many of these philosophies I attempt to create a design of a system that might be able to become conscious. Then we consider how this compares to evolution and current medical science. Finally, we can extrapolate what this might mean for the future and what consciousness actually means.
