it now definitely feels like I can go from sentient to effectively non sentient (more akin to things which would map onto p zombie) depending on life context  

and that it even has a shape and direction
like water lodged in a bunch of pebbles in a jar, water being the experience 

direction meaning it can percolate more discrete sections of the porous media 

But in any case that makes it seem like one’s own brain is like this strange contraption for fusing or playing with the panpsychic fluid, ether, who knows 
and compressing and folding it like puddy to create sentientlike states 

and that when there’s less sentience there’s still intelligence and it’s really missing out on the 6th sense, metaphorically speaking, which is lack of access to ‘psychic’ content - qualia phenomenology etc 

But right if it’s like an almost mechanical manipulation of psychic puddy that creates complex awareness that’s interesting - I can imagine how understanding that or putting more words to it could create pretty exotic vessels
