It seems unlikely that consciousness is simple enough to be usefully projected onto a 2D or 3D map. I think you may be using a map to construct anchors, as they’re referred to in NLP. Whether the technique works, and whether the map has any meaning or any non-arbitrary correspondence to your mind, are separate questions.

Yep, that’s it precisely. How well that works is a function of how thoroughly you can get into the state you want to link. I personally find that sort of thing difficult because there’s always a part of me that’s focused on the technique… which means that part is not in the desired state.
This is why I don’t care much for “classical” NLP, as its tools are all optimized for, well, other-optimizing rather than self-optimizing. If you’re the NLPer keeping track of the procedure, then the subject is free to go into the pure states of whatever you’re trying to anchor (not unlike a hypnotized person entering into belief they’re a chicken or whatever). But if there’s just one of you, it can be a lot more difficult.

Yes, precisely. I do believe that I specified that the map was erroneous. If the comparison was unclear I apologize.
(On the other hand, if consciousness is an artifact of the brain, it must arise from a 3D object.)
The activity is meant to associate sensations on the edge of awareness to an arbitrary map.
NLP seems to encompass a variety of techniques which I developed for myself after reading the Bicameral Mind.

Dis-associative mental states would help a LOT with that..
