GWT is a strong but incomplete theory of consciousness.
GWT proposes that information in the brain becomes conscious when broadcast across a "global workspace."
One caveat: Unlike in the theater stage analogy, the actual workspace in the brain is not localized but rather is distributed across wide regions of the cortex. The broadcasted signal is amplified, prolonged, and shared with the other specialized modules through a process referred to as"ignition." Ignition is thought to be associated with a specific pattern of brain activity that might be measurable using specialized brain imaging and electrophysiology techniques.
