I think there may be something universal about consciousness, while the sense of self becomes personal through memory, senses, body, emotions, and history. So I wonder what would happen if the same field of awareness was given completely different data, for example different people’s memories and sensory experiences back and forth.
Would there still be some continuous “I” moving through those frames, or would the self instantly reshape around whatever memories it currently has? And maybe something like this is already happening, but we could never notice it, because once consciousness shifts into a new frame, it only remembers from inside that frame.
It makes me wonder how much of the self is actually continuous, and how much of it is memory creating continuity after the fact.
