As science and technology advance we find ourselves asking age old questions like where douse conscious work?

Hmm. I'm not too sure. Dualism maybe.

For me panpsychism, definetly. Conscious is function of our central neural system (and whole body support), but from 3 philosophy types - panpsychism; beacuse for then our world is world of minds; also for them psyche / mind is primordial to all other features.

But, is it necessary to suppose that mind is primordial to all other features? In this case, what about feelings, images appearing in the mind? Feelings drive our mind to work, bacause without them mind will 'think' by empty forms. Thinking by 'empty forms' and 'feelings without thinking' are something misunderstandable. Probably, dualistic view is right, 'cause they propose there are both precesses at the same time, like in a mirror. So, the whole process is kind of a reflection - thinking occurs with feelings. Besides, there are plenty of thinking types. Primitive types are just based on the operation of concatenation, more powerful operation is analisys and so on.

Panpsychism doesn't strike me as being in the same boat as these other classifications of Consciousness: whilst these other theories strive to answer what the mind is, panpsychism is an explaination of where. In most cases, it would be a dualistic theory—how could there be an physical all-permeating psyche, without psyche being some property of matter? In such a case, that property, being the property of mentality, would then ascribe a duality to matter: matter becomes dually physical and mental.
Anywho, my answer to the question is that the physical and the mental are two interpretations of the same underlying—logos is the word i would use. Ens Reallissimum. That is, there are the electrical signals in our minds, which can be interpreted in the mental sense, seen as ideas, or seen simply as electrical signals. One—the mental—is an abstraction of the other.
The beauty of the mind itself is that it is an abstracting abstraction.
I would argue this view to be neither purely materialist nor dualist, as it neither claims the mental to be non-existent, nor to be entirely seperate from the physical.
