The simplest way to understand this problem is as follows.
1. Analog computation is not digitally reducible. (Brains are analog computers.)
2. Turing’s infamous Halting Problem.
I can write more about this and point you to more technical discussions if you want.

I really don't see what either gödels or turnings theorems have to do with it All they (basically) tell you is that you can't tell if a computation will guarantee to halt , and that you can't proof everything with math It's not excluding consciousness on a digital basis. Unless you already prerequisite some special property of consciousness to begin with
