From the speaker:
What can parapsychology and the study of Exceptional Human Experience contribute to a better future? In this talk Matt Colborn gives an overview of the current status of research into psi and mystical states. These are aspects of human experience that have historically been marginalised by mainstream cognitive science. However, the study of psychedelics as well as fresh interest in psi research forces us to reconsider the ultimate significance of transpersonal experience. Such a reconsideration may be urgent in the context of the current global 'polycrisis', perhaps opening the door to alternatives to mechanistic models of the mind, brain and life.
