Funny how some people just totally ignore cognitive science. You won't find the answers to consciousness in your equations, but in empirical studies fo how the brain works, and how consciousness itself can be predictably altered by altering the workings of the brain. The philosopher Daniel Dennett in his book "consciousness explained" does a great job at providing a model of how consciousness can arise, based on subjective experience, neuroscience experiments and studies on patients with brain damage. Other big names in the cognitive science of consciousness are Gerald Edelman, Douglas Hofstadter, Stanislas Dehaene, Giulio Tononi, and they say really fascinating things, it's worth digging into this whole scientific field. No need for quantum physics here, neuropsychology will help you much more in understanding consciousness.
