consciousness must be the programmer.

Yes. As Amit Goswami says, "Consciousness is the ground of all being."

Of course, you are likely familiar with the pair of limericks by Bishop Berkeley:

There was once a man who said ‘God
Must think it exceedingly odd
If he finds that this tree
Continues to be
When there’s no one about in the quad.’

Dear Sir, Your astonishment’s odd:
I am always about in the quad.
And that’s why the tree>br> Will continue to be,
Since observed by Yours faithfully, God.

Lemme re-word that. Now why the universe is continually created (or re-created) is another topic. I'll think about that.

I think T.S. Eliot explains it:

At the still point of the turning world. Neither flesh nor fleshless;
Neither from nor towards; at the still point, there the dance is,
But neither arrest nor movement. And do not call it fixity,
Where past and future are gathered. Neither movement from nor towards,
Neither ascent nor decline. Except for the point, the still point,
There would be no dance, and there is only the dance.

(T.S. Eliot, Burnt Norton)
