>good refutation to materialism
Consciousness. In the sense of the observer of thoughts, emotions, ideas etc. Not in the sense of being simply awake.
Not only is there no materialist account of consciousness, it is almost equally inconceivable to explain consciousness by matter, as it is to explain matter by consciousness.

>consciousness is in the brain because that's where it is
It may be 'in' the brain like information is 'in' a medium, but that doesn't make information a material thing. Information is that which material hosts.
