Extremes of Consciousness Research - Andres Emilsson & Dr. Ogi Ogas, DSPod #247

Humans have long encountered experiences that challenge their
rational ideas about the world. Encounters with angels, demons,
fairies, gnomes, or other spirits have been the standards of
folklore since time immemorial. We agree with Jung that these
revelations are scientifically valuable, though best explored
though any lens but materialism; i.e. physics. When we learn
about common bizarre experiences, we learn about ourselves.
Author Ogi Ogas joins us again, alongside Qualia Research
Institute's Andrés Gómez Emilsson, to discuss close encounters
with the modern version of those elusive, yet timeless, entities.
We begin with the phenomenological approaches to studying
consciousness. We then compare both guest's experience with
non-human minds. Tell us your thoughts in the comments!!! Sign up

studying bioelectricity at Columbia University. When not talking
to brilliant people or making movies, she spends her time
painting, reading, and guiding backcountry excursions. Shilo also
did his PhD at Columbia studying the elastic properties of
molecular water. When he's not in the film studio, he's exploring
sound in music. They are both freelance professors at various
universities. - Blog: http://DemystifySci.com/blog - RSS:
