Planarian (Dugesia tigrinia) were exposed to a frequency-modulated ("Thomas"), patterned electromagnetic field (EMF) immediately following transection through the pharynx. Subjects were exposed from 15 min to 3 h as well as single versus repeated exposures. Results from multiple experiments indicated that those planaria exposed from 45 to 90 min re...

Previous studies have shown that exposure to extremely low-frequency electromagnetic fields (ELF-EMFs) have negative effects on the rate of growth of bacteria. In the present study, two Gram-positive and two Gram-negative species were exposed to six magnetic field conditions in broth cultures. Three variations of the 'Thomas' pulsed frequency-modul...

The structure of the post-mortem human brain can be preserved by immersing the organ within a fixative solution. Once the brain is perfused, cellular and histological features are maintained over extended periods of time. However, functions of the human brain are not assumed to be preserved beyond death and subsequent chemical fixation. Here we pre...

Studies by Alexander Gurwitsch in the 1920' s with onion root cells revealed the phenomenon of mitogenetic radiation. Subsequent works by Popp, Van Wijk, Quickenden, Tillbury, and Trushin have demonstrated a link between Gurwitsch's mitogenetic radiation and the biophoton, emissions of light correlated with biological processes. The present study s...

Previous works demonstrated that human creative output fluctuates in periods of 500-years, and more importantly that these periods of creative output maxima occurred simultaneous with increased solar activity. Indeed, early works by Chizhevskiy pointed to the correlation between solar-and-lunar geophysical variables and human behaviour. Interesting...

There is an increasing drive towards interdisciplinarity in all fields of knowledge. The general schema is a necessary and ultimately useful one in generating new ideas and "big picture" conceptualizations of knowledge, yet an impediment to its large-scale adaptation by universities and the Academy is sometimes found within interdisciplinarians the...

Literature from across academic disciplines has demonstrated significant links between emotional valence and language. For example, Whissell’s Dictionary of Affect in Language defines three dimensions upon which the emotionality of words is describable, and Ekman’s Theories of Emotion include the perception and internalization of facial expressions...

Transatlantic Study: Experimental Production of Excess Correlation of Right Temporal Theta-Gamma Activity Between Subjects Pairs Sharing Circumcerebral Rotating Magnetic Fields

Previous experiments with chemiluminescent reactions indicated that when two loci separated by “non-local” distances shared specific temporal parameters of rotating magnetic fields with changing angular velocities the photon emissions doubled as if the spaces were superimposed. This excess correlation was considered an experimental demonstration of...

There have been multiple historical and cross-cultural reports of excess correlation of specific experiences between individuals separated by thousands of kilometers. Recently there have been experimental demonstrations of excess correlations between measurable cerebral events for small percentages of test subjects. More reliable effects can be eli...

Purpose: This experiment was designed to test the effects of an extremely low frequency electromagnetic field (ELF-EMF) generator ('Resonator') compared with strong static magnetic fields on cellular viability, and to illustrate the importance of dynamic patterns of fields compared with static patterns. Materials and methods: B16-BL6 melanoma cell...

Evidence of hominid use of the prehistoric El Castillo cave site in Puente Viesgo, Spain site date back at least 40,800 years. Simulated audio tones were emitted at a location which is thought to be have been used by shamans in ritualistic ceremonies. The sound was simultaneously recorded within the same cave at a position where laymen would observ...

An archaeoacoustic study was recently conducted within the prehistoric cave system of El Castillo in northern Spain. With findings dating back at least 40800 years, archaeological studies of this cave have revealed the presence of prehistoric ritual activity associated with early shamanism. Simulated audio tones of varying frequencies were created...

A recent series of investigations involving the apparent FieldREG phenomenon have been explored in order to examine potential effects of human emotion, subjective novelty, and a number of anomalous activities on the statistical output of an external random event generator device, with some intriguing results revealed. However, studies in this speci...

Background: Pharmacological phenomena are based upon spatial interactions of molecules and biological targets. L-arginine and L-alanine are both naturally occurring amino acids and play a role in neurotransmission. In addition, specific electromagnetic fields can mimic the neurophysiological firing patterns of the hippocampus. This study was conduc...

A new generation of researchers have begun to contribute to the emerging transdisciplinary endeavours of paranthropology. This intriguing area of research unifies methodologies and theoretical perspectives of both parapsychology and anthropology to enhance understanding of anomalous phenomena related to consciousness. Furthermore, by employing a pa...

A number of interesting and testable theories of precognitive information transfer have been posited, and focus on the potential role of both ultraweak photon emissions and the geomagnetic field. While many experiments examining this anomalous phenomenon have been previously conducted, a precognitive study of a magnitude similar to the Premonitions...

Many traditional beliefs regard “human energy” as an integral component in human health and positive life experience. A number of areas in the realm of complementary and alternative medicine, as well as consciousness research in general, have explored the potential for these subtle energies in a myriad of experiments and applications. The FieldREG...

A series of preliminary field experiments investigating the phenomenon of consciousness-correlated effects on Random Event Generator (REG) devices was recently conducted by our group, which revealed interesting effects on these random physical systems associated with subjectively emotional events occurring in the immediate environment. We have sinc...
