Perhaps this paper would be of interest:
Deterministic multivalued logic scheme for information processing and
routing in the brain(arxiv.org/abs/0902.2033)?
Speaking of logic, even though I am not starting from zero,and given
that it is not my full time profession, which papers/book should be
read, and are they available online?
finally what is the difference between being awake and asleep from the
programmatic POV?

A very good book is the one by Eliot Mendelson:

MENDELSON E., 1987, Introduction to Mathematical Logic, 3ème édition, Wadsworth & 
brooks/Cole.



A good webpage is Podnieks page:





finally what is the difference between being awake and asleep from the

It is a like the difference between a solitaire video game, and a collective video game, where many computational histories cohere and glue together. It is still an open problem if that can exist with comp, note!
It is related to the difference between first person, and first person plural, which, in both QM and pure comp, are defined by "population" multiplication. If we are both annihilated and both reconstituted in washington and Moscow, we can share indeterminacies and even use a notion of Dutch Book probabilities.

Best,

Bruno

Bruno:
  The fifth edition of Mendelson's book is due out in August;is it
worth waiting for?
  I will take a look at some of the links on Podnieks page.

I really don't know. My favorite edition is the first one, because  
there is a nice appendix with a proof of the consistency of arithmetic  
by transfinite induction, which is less informative than the original  
proof by Gentzen, but more easy to follow.

This can surely help,

Bruno:
    Dur to financial considerations I will wait for the fifth edition
to come out.

  Only had time for a few links, but they were interesting.
