immanence

The phenomenology of the mind as emergent from the geometric center of the human body and ending at the border between the human body and external space.

Mind-body contiguity (congruity).

Distinct from consciousnesses which is postulated to radiate from the space external to the human body and cross the space-body border to be contiguous with the mind (body).
Immanence delineates the hard problem of consciousness: the feeling of consciousness as meta-emergent (fatalistic) or "alien" to perception.

Ie. Consciousness overlaps with (is) the mind but the mind does not overlap with (is not) consciousness.

Conscious irony or irony's ability to self - reference from one medium to the next implies that it is self-sentient; that consciousness is an attribute of irony rather than irony being an attribute of consciousness
