The Central Axis of AQAL Space–ITC 10 Poster
Poster presentation for the Integral Theory Conference, July 29 – Aug 1, 2010 in Pleasanton, CA.

Science of Subtle Energy Poster
This poster was presented at ISSSEEM 2009. It gives an overview of how what I’m now calling the All Time Spectrum (technically a backward-looking logarithmic timeline spanning from Planck to Hubble times) provides a novel framework for a scientific consideration of the classical esoteric categories “gross, subtle, and causal.” Final Phi Sci of SE Poster.pdf

It …

This is a complete rewrite of “Putting Sublte Energies on the Scientific Map.” However, after extensive feedback from editor Sean Esbjörn-Hargens and a chat with Nobelist Sheldon Glashow, I’ve decided to do another complete rewrite to make it shorter and much more concise—something along the lines of “The Observer-Centered Version of Scientific Cosmology Reveals Subtle …
