If you are just a highly complex collection of physical matter, how does a first person point of awareness come into being?
On top of this, how does our non-tangible consciousness interact with our body? If I want to move my arm I can just make it happen without any outside interaction. What's happening inside my brain for this to work? I know that it's a series of chemical reactions, but what starts them? Am I literally using my own consciousness to will chemical reactions to take place out of seemingly thin air?
It's basically telekinesis but over my own body, weird to think about.
Why do we experience things from such a non tangible way while being made of tangible stuff?
