Hmm. It may not be that clear cut. Many modern philosophers (and some physicists!) are playing with the idea that consciousness is primary [1]. This would mean we have everything inside out, or upside down perhaps. But the matter is way, way more interesting and complicated that your reduction would suggest :)
