Commenting on a recent interview of David Chalmers Richard Brown discusses some (relatively) recent arguments regarding whether consciousness is a biological phenomenon (or, say, a functional or computational phenomenon), specifically, the dancing and fading quality arguments, and the partial reports argument (both of which are well-explained in this article). I don't think either argument impacts my own position (that consciousness is experience) but the discussion is interesting and helps us look more closely at what it means to have an experience.
