Fable

...this show was taped before a live studio audience...

The ghost in the machine is
The machine. Just consider 
The search for consciousness as
The search for the presenters
Talking on a TV set. 
Knowing the set won't find them.
They're out there. Now imagine

The TV set is your brain.
The presenters correspond,
I'll wager, to the culture
Your brain translates and presents
But did not invent. Real sets
Are artifacts, however,
Of culture. The loop is closed.
