Brain is the mother of consciousness not the other way round

By "absence of consciousness" in my earlier question, I was positing a universal condition in which consciousness as a phenomenon did not exist. If this were the case, SCIENTIFICALLY, you could not make the statement "the absence of consciousness would not effect the brain in any way" because there would be no way to observe, test and measure this hypothesis. Or...is there really such a thing as "unconscious observation"..."unconscious empiricism"? Who would know?
