Conscious moments in their experienced fulness seem to be a togetherness of smaller and more discrete conscious moments and so lead to the question of binding. How do these original free-floating moments come together to form someone's experience? This way of thinking seems flawed, but if it were so then there would have to be a different kind of discrete moment that functioned as the binder in a one-to-many relation. What would cause such moments, and what form would they take if they were not filled? It is almost as if a certain kind of conscious formation, a pure self vortex were to be continually emitting these empty binding qualia which each pulled in a number of the smaller saturated qualia. And other bunding moments bound these, and so on. The negotiation between owned and unowned qualia is impossible to conceive. The idea seems to follow from an overextended metaphor or analogy.
