EVENT DETAILS




Science is on the threshold of understanding how life might have begun on the Earth four billion years ago, & how prevalent life might be in the universe. Laboratory & field experiments demonstrating how chemical cycling can form & evolve the first primitive protocells have revealed an algorithm which may be the "generative engine" still driving all living processes, & by extension, our conscious experience. The concept of "synchronicity" described by Carl Jung to provide an explanation for the paranormal, spiritual experience & the collective unconscious as well as our experiences in ordinary life, may also be explained by the operation of this engine. So in the quest to understand consciousness we may have discovered its underlying "code base".
On August 16th, 2019, come experience multi-disciplinary scientist & visionary Dr. Bruce Damer as he takes us on a sweeping tour from our earliest origins to the threshold of our conscious ability to enable hacking of the synchronous field itself, perhaps the greatest new technology for the coming Century & key to our survival.
