Most interesting video unfortunately the voiceover is virtually inaudible....still much of value to be inferred!

Even if consciousness is just an emergent phenomena it's still fascinating and remarkable that a collection of matter could be self-aware.

The audio, in the last several installments, has been poor. Has anyone else noticed this phenomenon, or is it just my computer?
