>We demonstrate that the transitions between default mode and dorsal attention networks are embedded in this temporal circuit, in which a balanced reciprocal accessibility of brain states is characteristic of consciousness.
I read it is as the temporal circuit manages the anti-correlated relationship between the two networks to produce consciousness. Almost like the temporal circuit is a function whose goal is to return 1 given two anticorrelated inputs that add up to about 1 and the computation to arrive to the solution is what consciousness is. Weird unresponsive stuff happens when the sum of the inputs is above 1.
Consciousness is an emergent side effect of trying to keep two input systems synchronized
