claimAntonio Damasio argued that consciousness is an entirely private, first-person phenomenon.

referenceAntonio Damasio approaches the concept of consciousness via the 'feeling of what happens', where the 'I' is similar to the 'proto-self' (a constantly updated representation in the brain of the body's state) and the 'me' is similar to the 'core self' (a non-verbal, implicit awareness re-created for every object the brain encounters).
