Thanks for the comments.
I don't feel comfortable with the idea of locations associated to qualia. Qualia themselves are inmaterial, therefore, no location can be assigned to them. Anyhow, I think you are actually referring to the location of the machinery that generates qualia.
Having said that, It is interesting to note that some authors have argued (Balduzzi and Tononi) that geometry could be used to characterize qualia, i.e. to define a "qualia space". In this sense, your approach could be characterized as adding additional dimensions to the qualia space. Al least intuitively it does make sense...
