Default Transformation of Consciousness?

This is a follow up to this thread.

Pretty much, the question is: How does consciousness change, move, evolve, stabilize, etc.?
EDIT: For clarification, I'm asking 'in what way' does this happen, what is the observed phenomena and the accompanying explanation, i.e. phenomenology.

If you wish to discuss what consciousness is, please use the previous thread where there was at least some form of consensus reached, namely that consciousness, something fundamental in nature, cannot be created or destroyed only change form, similar to the concept of energy.

Some useful guidelines: an explanation should be accompanied by its related scope (i.e. the range of phenomena to which the explanation applies), otherwise discussion will likely get mixed up and unnecessary conflict might arise. And as for the claims made, as long as the support of the claim matches the strength of the claim, I think we should be all right.

(As in the previous thread, if there's been discussion on this already, whether here or elsewhere, please link it if you get the chance. Thanks. )
