Abstract
Attempts to decode what has become known as the (singular) neural correlate of consciousness
(NCC) suppose that consciousness is a single unified entity, a belief that finds expression
in the term 'unity of consciousness'. Here, I propose that the quest for the NCC will
remain elusive until we acknowledge that consciousness is not a unity, and that there
are instead many consciousnesses that are distributed in time and space.
