Nonlocal Mind: Curing the Fear of Death.

The aim of this article is to critique the contemporary scientific reduction of mind to brain, a dogma which is shown to be philosophically unsound and empirically unproven. The world of physical phenomena is understood to be encompassed by other subtle transphysical worlds accessed after death of the physical body.

Mind in Deep Time: Original Participation and Re-enchantment of the World.

This paper describes my experiences exploring consciousness as an artist-engraver, in particular the sense of reawakening the participatory primal mind, which came about through the act of engraving. This 'original participation' is viewed as a fundamental characteristic of our early Acheuelan ancestors and evidence is presented to show that they possessed both a 'modern' esthetic sense and also a prayerful, sacramental consciousness. It is suggested that this primal consciousness is a fundamental human quality that became eclipsed in the modern mind by the denial of participation and the Cartesian split between subject and object during the Scientific Revolution.

Only one mind: an artist's exploration of consciousness.

The aim of this article is to critique the contemporary scientific reduction of mind to brain and to explore the imaginal realm of consciousness. Through the author's own practice as an engraver, and through the researches and discoveries of free-thinking scientists, philosophers and artists, this realm of the "One Mind" is revealed to be timeless and universal.
