I haven't managed to read the entire paper yet, but it seems to be along
similar lines to the idea that the brain receives consciousness from
somewhere else, like in the story by Barrington Bayley (I forget the title)
in which the universe is criss-crossed with beams of consciousness that

If the memories aren't in the brain, then what physical causes enable a
positive or negative recognition of the photo of a person's face? It seems
to me that this would require some extra-physical interaction beyond all
