I can recommend this presentation by Joscha Bach on the subject:

Virtualism as a Perspective on Consciousness, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b6oekXIQ-LM

It honors the richness and complexity of conscious experience and provides a refreshing computational perspective on it.

I would like to learn how to translate relatively high-level ideas like in the presentation you shared (thanks!) to actual equations to code. Are there any good resources that you would recommend (YouTube channels, books, etc.)? They don't have to be consciousness-related but I would prefer to avoid books on modeling, say, mechanical things because they usually end up over-relying on the reader's background, e.g., in physics. I am more interested in learning how to express "novel" ideas in equations and code.
