The anthropomorphism of consciousness, no the 'hypokimorphism' or the idea that a consciousness necessarily is that of a subject, or is even nothing more than a name for the general field of intent of a physical subject. Every consciousness must belong to someone, it would seen, because it enacts a gathering or unification of significations into one house. But when you investigate these subject centred apprehensions you never can find the conscious point, its location in the cycle. Understand consciousness instead as having no centre, no self or subject, as being something like a pure selector, a continuous unmotivated choice - these are only metaphors. It's not shaped like you at all, for all that it's nice to think so.
