The experiments about people with their brain hemispheres separated indicate that conciousness is an effort of many mental areas to create an integrated and coherent mental state. For example, consider subjects whose verbal area is separated from their visual area, when the subject tries to explain what he saw he tell us an imaginary story. This strongly suggests that our brain is working hard to integrate all the information that it receives. At this moment, I can't recall any concrete experiments, but they are something like this: one of your eyes see a message telling that you kid is crying, then you begin to try to phone home, when asked what are you doing, you gives some explanation like my kid was acting a little strange this morning, I need to call to see what is happening at home.
