Eugen,

> First question: what do you mean by consciousness?

I mean, exactly, what philosophers mean by intentionality:

> Second question: what do you think computational neuroscientists are doing?

If by computational neuroscientists you mean cognitive scientists, I believe they are following a false model. The computational model of mind is, I think, wrong.
