1 00:00:12,680 --> 00:00:11,119 right thank you so we'll be kind of 2 00:00:14,869 --> 00:00:12,690 shifting gears a little bit back to the 3 00:00:16,550 --> 00:00:14,879 to the last session and you might notice 4 00:00:20,180 --> 00:00:16,560 from your program that the title has 5 00:00:21,769 --> 00:00:20,190 truncated a little bit mostly due to the 6 00:00:24,290 --> 00:00:21,779 fact that I have an obscene amount of 7 00:00:25,730 --> 00:00:24,300 slides and a very little time so if you 8 00:00:27,200 --> 00:00:25,740 are interested in the investment aspect 9 00:00:29,359 --> 00:00:27,210 I'm happy to walk you through my poster 10 00:00:31,269 --> 00:00:29,369 so just to kind of orient you a little 11 00:00:33,110 --> 00:00:31,279 bit to what I'll be discussing today a 12 00:00:35,540 --> 00:00:33,120 roadmap I'll just kind of talk about 13 00:00:38,479 --> 00:00:35,550 some of my study goals the phases of the 14 00:00:40,479 --> 00:00:38,489 study methods etc and we'll talk about 15 00:00:44,540 --> 00:00:40,489 some conclusions and future directions 16 00:00:46,399 --> 00:00:44,550 so with respect to goals many of you 17 00:00:48,979 --> 00:00:46,409 probably share my frustration in this 18 00:00:53,149 --> 00:00:48,989 field oftentimes our goals are the 19 00:00:56,029 --> 00:00:53,159 building blocks of failure not uncommon 20 00:00:57,559 --> 00:00:56,039 with the with psy research but let's 21 00:01:01,430 --> 00:00:57,569 just talk about what I what I wanted to 22 00:01:03,649 --> 00:01:01,440 do here first of all my personal aim was 23 00:01:06,680 --> 00:01:03,659 to have a kind of a first-person 24 00:01:09,310 --> 00:01:06,690 experience all approach because I think 25 00:01:13,190 --> 00:01:09,320 most of us probably came into this field 26 00:01:17,569 --> 00:01:13,200 not only because psy is implicitly cool 27 00:01:20,149 --> 00:01:17,579 but it's also it's a it's the 28 00:01:23,060 --> 00:01:20,159 experiential aspect it's it's the 29 00:01:24,889 --> 00:01:23,070 phenomenology of it is is unquestionably 30 00:01:28,399 --> 00:01:24,899 important and for me that's the driving 31 00:01:30,410 --> 00:01:28,409 factor for being in this field but also 32 00:01:32,240 --> 00:01:30,420 finding ways to try to quantify an 33 00:01:33,770 --> 00:01:32,250 objective by my own experience so I 34 00:01:36,230 --> 00:01:33,780 wanted to be able to train myself to 35 00:01:39,830 --> 00:01:36,240 reliably produce PK effects on a 36 00:01:42,380 --> 00:01:39,840 physical object and secondly I wanted to 37 00:01:45,609 --> 00:01:42,390 develop a protocol that could be rolled 38 00:01:48,649 --> 00:01:45,619 out to future of formal experiments with 39 00:01:53,120 --> 00:01:48,659 macro and micro PK kind of interleaved 40 00:01:55,219 --> 00:01:53,130 together so I do want to use this to 41 00:01:57,469 --> 00:01:55,229 pause and just say that everything I'm 42 00:02:01,279 --> 00:01:57,479 doing here is completely like homegrown 43 00:02:04,249 --> 00:02:01,289 exploration with no real codified a 44 00:02:06,679 --> 00:02:04,259 priori hypotheses so you know let's not 45 00:02:08,600 --> 00:02:06,689 get too excited if the methods don't 46 00:02:10,609 --> 00:02:08,610 quite congroo to what you think would be 47 00:02:11,780 --> 00:02:10,619 appropriate or laboratory context what 48 00:02:13,160 --> 00:02:11,790 I'm hoping to do is to set up a 49 00:02:15,980 --> 00:02:13,170 framework that we can have a little bit 50 00:02:19,490 --> 00:02:15,990 more of a controlled study okay and the 51 00:02:24,050 --> 00:02:19,500 third goal was to see if we can detect 52 00:02:27,500 --> 00:02:24,060 a reliable signature of macro pique or 53 00:02:30,650 --> 00:02:27,510 sigh more generally within a buried 54 00:02:33,140 --> 00:02:30,660 random signal so just kind of an 55 00:02:36,410 --> 00:02:33,150 overview to get a bird's-eye view of the 56 00:02:38,150 --> 00:02:36,420 low-hanging fruit I'm using the method 57 00:02:41,540 --> 00:02:38,160 that we learned about earlier today Sean 58 00:02:43,580 --> 00:02:41,550 McNamara's macro pique so trying to 59 00:02:46,820 --> 00:02:43,590 produce effects large enough that would 60 00:02:48,199 --> 00:02:46,830 be observable by the naked eye so 61 00:02:49,970 --> 00:02:48,209 luckily he saved me the time to have to 62 00:02:52,430 --> 00:02:49,980 go through this too much but essentially 63 00:02:54,350 --> 00:02:52,440 we have a folded piece of foil on a 64 00:02:56,660 --> 00:02:54,360 balanced on a needle and a cork that's 65 00:02:58,670 --> 00:02:56,670 in a you know quasi sealed glass chamber 66 00:03:02,600 --> 00:02:58,680 to minimize the influence of air 67 00:03:04,610 --> 00:03:02,610 currents etc I am using the same method 68 00:03:07,970 --> 00:03:04,620 I did take some workshops with with Sean 69 00:03:11,780 --> 00:03:07,980 and I also read his book which I found 70 00:03:14,330 --> 00:03:11,790 to be extremely helpful and using this 71 00:03:16,970 --> 00:03:14,340 trium method that he described before as 72 00:03:18,650 --> 00:03:16,980 well so just to give you an idea 73 00:03:21,370 --> 00:03:18,660 unfortunate eating it to put any video 74 00:03:23,690 --> 00:03:21,380 but I did this is sped up 20 times 75 00:03:29,479 --> 00:03:23,700 notice the importance of having a cat 76 00:03:32,030 --> 00:03:29,489 helper with you and you can see that you 77 00:03:33,620 --> 00:03:32,040 know we can definitely start to move the 78 00:03:36,170 --> 00:03:33,630 object and eventually start to pull your 79 00:03:37,400 --> 00:03:36,180 hands away from it you know Sean and 80 00:03:39,229 --> 00:03:37,410 others are at the point where they don't 81 00:03:41,539 --> 00:03:39,239 even have or have their hands on the 82 00:03:45,470 --> 00:03:41,549 glass so unfairly convinced that the 83 00:03:49,100 --> 00:03:45,480 macro effect is is real and reproducible 84 00:03:52,100 --> 00:03:49,110 that it's not just perturbations of the 85 00:03:58,580 --> 00:03:52,110 table etc or you know convection effects 86 00:04:00,350 --> 00:03:58,590 however cool by the way that the picture 87 00:04:03,979 --> 00:04:00,360 that Sean put up with a little kid doing 88 00:04:06,350 --> 00:04:03,989 it that's my son so that's and you know 89 00:04:08,720 --> 00:04:06,360 he took the learning curve for me that 90 00:04:10,280 --> 00:04:08,730 was several several hours and he was 91 00:04:14,240 --> 00:04:10,290 able to condense that into about 30 92 00:04:16,550 --> 00:04:14,250 seconds for his first try so so as far 93 00:04:18,770 --> 00:04:16,560 as micro pique i'm operationalizing this 94 00:04:21,110 --> 00:04:18,780 is the subtle effects of sion random 95 00:04:22,820 --> 00:04:21,120 systems in this case i'm using a random 96 00:04:25,040 --> 00:04:22,830 number generator that's essentially 97 00:04:27,500 --> 00:04:25,050 acting like a an electronic coin flipper 98 00:04:30,469 --> 00:04:27,510 right and in this case i'm collecting at 99 00:04:32,399 --> 00:04:30,479 256 bits per second and of course with 100 00:04:35,969 --> 00:04:32,409 that we don't expect it outcome 101 00:04:37,559 --> 00:04:35,979 roughly 128 ones and zeros I do want to 102 00:04:39,449 --> 00:04:37,569 kind of talk about this just very 103 00:04:41,009 --> 00:04:39,459 briefly because I know that we have a 104 00:04:43,139 --> 00:04:41,019 very mixed audience and not everyone 105 00:04:45,929 --> 00:04:43,149 appreciates the methods that go into 106 00:04:47,459 --> 00:04:45,939 this and and looking at these graphs are 107 00:04:48,570 --> 00:04:47,469 inherently very boring unless you kind 108 00:04:50,519 --> 00:04:48,580 of understand what it is you're looking 109 00:04:52,199 --> 00:04:50,529 at so just briefly touch on what this 110 00:04:54,449 --> 00:04:52,209 means essentially for each second of 111 00:04:58,019 --> 00:04:54,459 data you know we're calculating a Z sort 112 00:05:00,449 --> 00:04:58,029 of the expected outcomes and basically 113 00:05:03,089 --> 00:05:00,459 squaring that z score and then plotting 114 00:05:05,669 --> 00:05:03,099 it over time and just to that we're 115 00:05:06,899 --> 00:05:05,679 plotting the accumulated squared Z 116 00:05:08,759 --> 00:05:06,909 scores correcting for the degrees of 117 00:05:09,869 --> 00:05:08,769 freedom and just to give you an 118 00:05:12,389 --> 00:05:09,879 orientation of how I'll be presenting 119 00:05:14,309 --> 00:05:12,399 these slides when I have non significant 120 00:05:17,219 --> 00:05:14,319 data I'll potted in blue and when we 121 00:05:20,339 --> 00:05:17,229 have data that deviates above a 122 00:05:22,019 --> 00:05:20,349 threshold of po5 we'll say that we'll 123 00:05:26,249 --> 00:05:22,029 apply that in green just to kind of 124 00:05:27,929 --> 00:05:26,259 orient you so just the study setup as I 125 00:05:31,249 --> 00:05:27,939 mentioned we have the the foil object in 126 00:05:33,749 --> 00:05:31,259 glass I generally start with a baseline 127 00:05:35,759 --> 00:05:33,759 where the object is just sitting there 128 00:05:37,079 --> 00:05:35,769 and I'm in the other room or in another 129 00:05:38,519 --> 00:05:37,089 part of the room doing some breathing 130 00:05:40,679 --> 00:05:38,529 meditation and just trying to get to the 131 00:05:42,359 --> 00:05:40,689 right from mental frame of mind and then 132 00:05:44,579 --> 00:05:42,369 these sessions were all self timed 133 00:05:46,529 --> 00:05:44,589 between 20 or 40 minutes I wasn't going 134 00:05:48,509 --> 00:05:46,539 to push it past my point of fatigue and 135 00:05:51,239 --> 00:05:48,519 that could just vary from day to day I 136 00:05:53,730 --> 00:05:51,249 was also simultaneously collecting 137 00:05:58,439 --> 00:05:53,740 random number generator data from a true 138 00:06:01,199 --> 00:05:58,449 RNG as I mentioned at 256 and there 139 00:06:02,790 --> 00:06:01,209 importantly the set up was more field 140 00:06:05,249 --> 00:06:02,800 configuration in that there was no 141 00:06:06,839 --> 00:06:05,259 real-time feedback from the RNG this was 142 00:06:09,269 --> 00:06:06,849 passively running in the background I 143 00:06:12,089 --> 00:06:09,279 wasn't particularly interested in in 144 00:06:16,829 --> 00:06:12,099 tending towards the Reg my focus was on 145 00:06:19,739 --> 00:06:16,839 the was on the foil object also we saw I 146 00:06:21,569 --> 00:06:19,749 simultaneously collected video via HD 147 00:06:23,759 --> 00:06:21,579 webcam so that I have a synchronized 148 00:06:25,529 --> 00:06:23,769 timing between me and when the object 149 00:06:29,129 --> 00:06:25,539 was moving and what was happening in the 150 00:06:30,479 --> 00:06:29,139 random event generator and this was all 151 00:06:32,639 --> 00:06:30,489 synced in a MATLAB GUI and as I 152 00:06:34,589 --> 00:06:32,649 mentioned the analysis was basically 153 00:06:37,319 --> 00:06:34,599 following a the basic kind of GCP 154 00:06:38,640 --> 00:06:37,329 protocol assuming like 1 1 reg as 155 00:06:42,120 --> 00:06:38,650 opposed to a mini 156 00:06:43,439 --> 00:06:42,130 I also had a marker channel built in my 157 00:06:46,469 --> 00:06:43,449 interface so I could kind of mark 158 00:06:48,600 --> 00:06:46,479 subjective key events as they happened I 159 00:06:51,090 --> 00:06:48,610 also during this time I got several 160 00:06:53,100 --> 00:06:51,100 syncs text messages which I thought were 161 00:06:54,779 --> 00:06:53,110 kind of interesting and I wanted to be 162 00:06:57,480 --> 00:06:54,789 able to indicate in time when I was 163 00:06:59,460 --> 00:06:57,490 getting those messages as well most of 164 00:07:00,860 --> 00:06:59,470 you are probably familiar with with sinc 165 00:07:04,050 --> 00:07:00,870 text but for those of you who are not 166 00:07:06,900 --> 00:07:04,060 sync text was an app that was put out by 167 00:07:09,210 --> 00:07:06,910 Sylar on that was essentially a random 168 00:07:10,740 --> 00:07:09,220 event generated messaging system that 169 00:07:12,870 --> 00:07:10,750 would send you random text at random 170 00:07:14,040 --> 00:07:12,880 times that happened to be profound and 171 00:07:15,659 --> 00:07:14,050 just to give you an example of what that 172 00:07:18,320 --> 00:07:15,669 would look like in one particular 173 00:07:20,610 --> 00:07:18,330 instance I had one of the by cats 174 00:07:24,990 --> 00:07:20,620 desperately climbing on my leg for 175 00:07:27,540 --> 00:07:25,000 attention wanting to be coddled and and 176 00:07:29,070 --> 00:07:27,550 whatnot but I was very busy looking at 177 00:07:31,589 --> 00:07:29,080 pictures of cats or something like that 178 00:07:34,710 --> 00:07:31,599 on my facebook on my phone totally 179 00:07:36,749 --> 00:07:34,720 ignoring her okay and the sync text 180 00:07:38,400 --> 00:07:36,759 message comes up and it says someone who 181 00:07:42,330 --> 00:07:38,410 adores you greatly is hidden right 182 00:07:43,950 --> 00:07:42,340 before your eyes so in my experience 183 00:07:45,300 --> 00:07:43,960 sync text it was a really interesting 184 00:07:47,120 --> 00:07:45,310 way of getting these profound 185 00:07:49,560 --> 00:07:47,130 experiences that are also simultaneously 186 00:07:52,320 --> 00:07:49,570 very difficult to assign any kind of 187 00:07:53,610 --> 00:07:52,330 meaningful statistics to but I just 188 00:07:56,129 --> 00:07:53,620 thought they were kind of interesting so 189 00:07:57,540 --> 00:07:56,139 I thought it included so as far as some 190 00:07:59,939 --> 00:07:57,550 quality controls I wanted to make sure I 191 00:08:02,750 --> 00:07:59,949 was working with a with a fair coin and 192 00:08:05,700 --> 00:08:02,760 so with that I established a baseline of 193 00:08:09,360 --> 00:08:05,710 basically 500 hours worth of simulated 194 00:08:11,700 --> 00:08:09,370 data 500 sessions and you can see the 195 00:08:15,240 --> 00:08:11,710 thresholds at po5 all the way up to 0 0 196 00:08:16,920 --> 00:08:15,250 1 and in green you'll see as expected 197 00:08:19,170 --> 00:08:16,930 you know a portion of those would be 198 00:08:22,020 --> 00:08:19,180 kind of like false false alarms or false 199 00:08:24,719 --> 00:08:22,030 hits and you know roughly you would 200 00:08:26,760 --> 00:08:24,729 expect about 25 25 tests to run 201 00:08:31,920 --> 00:08:26,770 significant out of 500 by chance I had 202 00:08:34,110 --> 00:08:31,930 26 of those 6 were above PL 1 none were 203 00:08:36,120 --> 00:08:34,120 above P tzer's or 1 so you know as 204 00:08:37,860 --> 00:08:36,130 fairly convinced that the implement or 205 00:08:42,209 --> 00:08:37,870 the instrument I was using was a was a 206 00:08:43,949 --> 00:08:42,219 fair device okay so in phase 1 was kind 207 00:08:45,480 --> 00:08:43,959 of my training at this point I'm just 208 00:08:47,850 --> 00:08:45,490 reading the book I'd never actually 209 00:08:51,870 --> 00:08:47,860 moved the object but I had everything 210 00:08:52,319 --> 00:08:51,880 set up sans the video camera so I did 6 211 00:08:54,389 --> 00:08:52,329 training 212 00:08:56,039 --> 00:08:54,399 sessions these were self-terminated 213 00:08:59,039 --> 00:08:56,049 again lasting twenty to forty minutes 214 00:09:01,919 --> 00:08:59,049 and again no video just the Reg running 215 00:09:04,530 --> 00:09:01,929 in the background so let's go through 216 00:09:07,889 --> 00:09:04,540 some some results my very first session 217 00:09:09,840 --> 00:09:07,899 again the object has never moved I've 218 00:09:12,869 --> 00:09:09,850 never done this before and I got this 219 00:09:14,549 --> 00:09:12,879 very encouraging result saying maybe 220 00:09:17,789 --> 00:09:14,559 there is a way of just detecting the 221 00:09:20,280 --> 00:09:17,799 efforts towards sigh of a significant 222 00:09:22,919 --> 00:09:20,290 hit on the first on the first run but as 223 00:09:25,590 --> 00:09:22,929 we all know those first results can be a 224 00:09:29,639 --> 00:09:25,600 little bit promising more than they 225 00:09:31,350 --> 00:09:29,649 deliver so what was well very 226 00:09:34,939 --> 00:09:31,360 interesting though on this very first 227 00:09:39,470 --> 00:09:34,949 attempt I got a sync text that said 228 00:09:41,129 --> 00:09:39,480 experiences analog perception is digital 229 00:09:43,559 --> 00:09:41,139 which I thought was kind of interesting 230 00:09:48,629 --> 00:09:43,569 as I'm kind of interleaving a digital 231 00:09:53,220 --> 00:09:48,639 and analog mixture of my sigh experiment 232 00:09:56,939 --> 00:09:53,230 here but the second session didn't quite 233 00:09:59,429 --> 00:09:56,949 pan out on the third session though 234 00:10:03,449 --> 00:09:59,439 however I got an even stronger result 235 00:10:05,879 --> 00:10:03,459 than the first but from three four and 236 00:10:10,259 --> 00:10:05,889 five again we kind of returned back to 237 00:10:11,639 --> 00:10:10,269 just a normal random walks I do want to 238 00:10:13,470 --> 00:10:11,649 mention on the fifth session though I 239 00:10:14,789 --> 00:10:13,480 got a I took a little break I was kind 240 00:10:16,409 --> 00:10:14,799 of getting a little frustrated at still 241 00:10:19,079 --> 00:10:16,419 at this point I've still never moved the 242 00:10:21,269 --> 00:10:19,089 object you know I've got accumulated 243 00:10:23,429 --> 00:10:21,279 several hours behind with my hands on 244 00:10:26,030 --> 00:10:23,439 glass with really nothing to show for it 245 00:10:29,579 --> 00:10:26,040 and I started to get pretty fatigued and 246 00:10:32,189 --> 00:10:29,589 and tired and not really wanting to give 247 00:10:34,559 --> 00:10:32,199 up but just a little bit out of sorts 248 00:10:36,539 --> 00:10:34,569 and so I marked on my marker which is 249 00:10:39,329 --> 00:10:36,549 that first purple line that I was taking 250 00:10:42,090 --> 00:10:39,339 a break and then a moment later the sync 251 00:10:44,249 --> 00:10:42,100 text appeared and it said as long as the 252 00:10:49,859 --> 00:10:44,259 mind gives up before the body who are 253 00:10:53,689 --> 00:10:49,869 destined to be slaves in this world okay 254 00:10:56,759 --> 00:10:53,699 so finally I had my sixth session and 255 00:10:59,669 --> 00:10:56,769 again nothing to write home about as far 256 00:11:00,989 --> 00:10:59,679 as the overall session data but I don't 257 00:11:04,889 --> 00:11:00,999 know if you can kind of see this little 258 00:11:05,840 --> 00:11:04,899 interesting blip here something kind of 259 00:11:14,369 --> 00:11:05,850 a 260 00:11:16,829 --> 00:11:14,379 very first movement of the object which 261 00:11:19,650 --> 00:11:16,839 I of course did not quite believe I'm 262 00:11:22,590 --> 00:11:19,660 then now looking under my table if I 263 00:11:24,509 --> 00:11:22,600 bumped it or something like that and if 264 00:11:29,460 --> 00:11:24,519 I were to just isolate that as if it was 265 00:11:32,900 --> 00:11:29,470 its own little event it does deviate 266 00:11:36,780 --> 00:11:32,910 above the parabola for the moment there 267 00:11:38,819 --> 00:11:36,790 so we'll come back to that so at this 268 00:11:40,590 --> 00:11:38,829 point we we all did a workshop I dragged 269 00:11:42,960 --> 00:11:40,600 several friends of mine some of them are 270 00:11:44,160 --> 00:11:42,970 in this room up to Garrett's lab at 271 00:11:45,780 --> 00:11:44,170 cu-boulder 272 00:11:48,869 --> 00:11:45,790 with Sean you'll see on the right there 273 00:11:51,600 --> 00:11:48,879 on that white piece of hair sticking out 274 00:11:53,669 --> 00:11:51,610 as the illustrious Garrett Modell and we 275 00:11:55,889 --> 00:11:53,679 all did a group workshop and we all 276 00:11:58,470 --> 00:11:55,899 found a very great results from this 277 00:12:00,600 --> 00:11:58,480 during the workshop we had about 77 278 00:12:03,329 --> 00:12:00,610 attendees about a two and a half hours 279 00:12:05,280 --> 00:12:03,339 including a long break a hundred percent 280 00:12:06,689 --> 00:12:05,290 success rate so every single person in 281 00:12:10,889 --> 00:12:06,699 the room was able to get some movement 282 00:12:12,179 --> 00:12:10,899 in the object I also was collecting reg 283 00:12:14,309 --> 00:12:12,189 data and this time we had Sean 284 00:12:18,749 --> 00:12:14,319 collecting video it was timed with with 285 00:12:21,150 --> 00:12:18,759 the reg and so I was able to also mark 286 00:12:26,879 --> 00:12:21,160 the segments of video that had these key 287 00:12:28,410 --> 00:12:26,889 moments so overall the session if I just 288 00:12:30,540 --> 00:12:28,420 take that whole two and a half hours and 289 00:12:32,910 --> 00:12:30,550 and put it as one session with breaks 290 00:12:34,499 --> 00:12:32,920 and stuff and it did not achieve six 291 00:12:37,290 --> 00:12:34,509 innovates but there are some segments 292 00:12:40,949 --> 00:12:37,300 that I do want to point out in this 293 00:12:43,259 --> 00:12:40,959 first one here was this the beginning 294 00:12:45,150 --> 00:12:43,269 where we first placed the glass over the 295 00:12:47,369 --> 00:12:45,160 objects so we started off just kind of 296 00:12:50,039 --> 00:12:47,379 playing with the object by itself not 297 00:12:52,470 --> 00:12:50,049 really you know having a glass yet just 298 00:12:55,439 --> 00:12:52,480 to get a feel of things we placed the 299 00:12:57,150 --> 00:12:55,449 glass and you'll see that as soon as 300 00:12:59,460 --> 00:12:57,160 this happens and as soon as the group 301 00:13:01,169 --> 00:12:59,470 started kind of applying their their 302 00:13:02,910 --> 00:13:01,179 intention towards the objects the 303 00:13:06,210 --> 00:13:02,920 objects are starting to move and go all 304 00:13:07,350 --> 00:13:06,220 over the place and up into the last part 305 00:13:08,699 --> 00:13:07,360 is where everyone kind of started 306 00:13:09,989 --> 00:13:08,709 laughing and checking out and there was 307 00:13:12,509 --> 00:13:09,999 some disturbance in the field and then 308 00:13:15,480 --> 00:13:12,519 it seemed to drop down and I did mark 309 00:13:17,699 --> 00:13:15,490 those two events at one point we were 310 00:13:19,199 --> 00:13:17,709 pausing and Sean is talking about some 311 00:13:22,980 --> 00:13:19,209 of the psychological factor 312 00:13:24,809 --> 00:13:22,990 and individual kind of personal 313 00:13:28,559 --> 00:13:24,819 psychological constitutions that might 314 00:13:30,689 --> 00:13:28,569 affect these these results and again we 315 00:13:33,869 --> 00:13:30,699 get a sink text which says people are 316 00:13:35,400 --> 00:13:33,879 stupid but you are people to a kind of 317 00:13:40,470 --> 00:13:35,410 reminder not to get caught up in your 318 00:13:42,840 --> 00:13:40,480 own BS basically so if I just isolate 319 00:13:44,009 --> 00:13:42,850 that section where the glass until 320 00:13:48,329 --> 00:13:44,019 people were laughing we do have a 321 00:13:50,669 --> 00:13:48,339 significant result and there again at 322 00:13:53,759 --> 00:13:50,679 the at the end of the session we have 323 00:13:55,290 --> 00:13:53,769 another kind of interesting peek where 324 00:13:57,350 --> 00:13:55,300 we started experimenting with a few 325 00:14:00,119 --> 00:13:57,360 other things so this first part here 326 00:14:01,590 --> 00:14:00,129 will say it's FaceTime is everyone 327 00:14:03,900 --> 00:14:01,600 familiar with what it with FaceTime the 328 00:14:06,840 --> 00:14:03,910 kind of messaging video conferencing app 329 00:14:09,480 --> 00:14:06,850 on your iPhone we had a friend of mine a 330 00:14:12,179 --> 00:14:09,490 martial arts teacher very good with his 331 00:14:16,859 --> 00:14:12,189 energies go out into the hallway where I 332 00:14:18,989 --> 00:14:16,869 held the camera up to the glass so that 333 00:14:21,540 --> 00:14:18,999 he could have a line of sight to the 334 00:14:24,749 --> 00:14:21,550 object but he's in the other room right 335 00:14:27,419 --> 00:14:24,759 and we saw an interesting deviation at 336 00:14:29,160 --> 00:14:27,429 that point which again was was 337 00:14:30,739 --> 00:14:29,170 significant only if I isolate that 338 00:14:33,600 --> 00:14:30,749 episode okay 339 00:14:35,579 --> 00:14:33,610 we also experimented with putting a few 340 00:14:37,739 --> 00:14:35,589 objects in the glass and all working 341 00:14:39,660 --> 00:14:37,749 together on moving those objects so 342 00:14:40,949 --> 00:14:39,670 we're working now as a team on one group 343 00:14:43,350 --> 00:14:40,959 of objects and you see where the point 344 00:14:44,910 --> 00:14:43,360 where the glass was placed and then 345 00:14:47,730 --> 00:14:44,920 going back through the video I marked 346 00:14:48,929 --> 00:14:47,740 the point where people like where 347 00:14:52,169 --> 00:14:48,939 actually one of my colleagues like her 348 00:14:54,480 --> 00:14:52,179 just she just slumped forward like in 349 00:14:56,400 --> 00:14:54,490 exhaustion basically and from that point 350 00:15:00,509 --> 00:14:56,410 that the it seemed like the field effect 351 00:15:02,759 --> 00:15:00,519 was it over okay and again that was a 352 00:15:04,499 --> 00:15:02,769 significant moment so this got me kind 353 00:15:06,419 --> 00:15:04,509 of thinking that well it'd be nice to 354 00:15:09,150 --> 00:15:06,429 have this at home with the camera set up 355 00:15:10,980 --> 00:15:09,160 so I can look at not only just the 356 00:15:12,389 --> 00:15:10,990 entire session with the reg but also 357 00:15:15,569 --> 00:15:12,399 like what are these kind of key moments 358 00:15:17,400 --> 00:15:15,579 that were we're happening perhaps they 359 00:15:18,869 --> 00:15:17,410 can isolate just the movements might be 360 00:15:23,129 --> 00:15:18,879 might be something interesting to look 361 00:15:24,960 --> 00:15:23,139 at okay so in the second phase I call 362 00:15:27,480 --> 00:15:24,970 this kind of a test phase where I had 15 363 00:15:30,720 --> 00:15:27,490 test sessions with the same basic basic 364 00:15:33,030 --> 00:15:30,730 setup as phase 1 the training phase but 365 00:15:35,430 --> 00:15:33,040 this time I'm I'm also synchronizing the 366 00:15:42,030 --> 00:15:35,440 with the video capture of the object in 367 00:15:45,060 --> 00:15:42,040 the glass okay so not too awesome 368 00:15:50,249 --> 00:15:45,070 results with overall session data and 369 00:15:55,530 --> 00:15:50,259 also not too surprising we I did not see 370 00:15:59,160 --> 00:15:55,540 any real interesting data in the in the 371 00:16:00,930 --> 00:15:59,170 regs but I thought well maybe I can try 372 00:16:03,689 --> 00:16:00,940 to isolate just the movements and see 373 00:16:06,509 --> 00:16:03,699 perhaps if there's if these things are 374 00:16:08,160 --> 00:16:06,519 really correlated maybe when isolated 375 00:16:09,329 --> 00:16:08,170 movements just like it was in the 376 00:16:10,769 --> 00:16:09,339 workshop when there seems to be 377 00:16:12,240 --> 00:16:10,779 something really going on with the 378 00:16:14,519 --> 00:16:12,250 object that's when I would see the Reg 379 00:16:15,569 --> 00:16:14,529 data start to play around so I created 380 00:16:18,569 --> 00:16:15,579 what I thought was a pretty clever 381 00:16:20,850 --> 00:16:18,579 little app in my MATLAB GUI interface I 382 00:16:24,420 --> 00:16:20,860 created basically the equivalent of like 383 00:16:26,670 --> 00:16:24,430 a video reviewer and I was able to mark 384 00:16:29,040 --> 00:16:26,680 the segments in the video which were in 385 00:16:30,809 --> 00:16:29,050 and out points in the timeline and then 386 00:16:32,699 --> 00:16:30,819 that would show me the ins and outs of 387 00:16:36,420 --> 00:16:32,709 the random data that was associated with 388 00:16:39,420 --> 00:16:36,430 that session makes sense so now this is 389 00:16:42,740 --> 00:16:39,430 isolated movements just the movements 390 00:16:46,379 --> 00:16:42,750 when the when the object was moving and 391 00:16:50,579 --> 00:16:46,389 we got two out of about 52 individual 392 00:16:52,019 --> 00:16:50,589 movements so again nothing too too 393 00:16:53,370 --> 00:16:52,029 strong of a book of a correlation 394 00:16:56,059 --> 00:16:53,380 between the movement of the physical 395 00:16:58,889 --> 00:16:56,069 object and the movement of the of the 396 00:17:02,009 --> 00:16:58,899 reg okay 397 00:17:06,419 --> 00:17:02,019 so I do I think I'd only think I pointed 398 00:17:08,069 --> 00:17:06,429 out with respect to my testing session 399 00:17:09,990 --> 00:17:08,079 once I was able to move the object that 400 00:17:12,480 --> 00:17:10,000 first time I have not had a single 401 00:17:14,789 --> 00:17:12,490 failure I have I was able to have 15 out 402 00:17:18,870 --> 00:17:14,799 of 15 sessions where I was able to move 403 00:17:20,970 --> 00:17:18,880 the foil object right so there seem to 404 00:17:23,819 --> 00:17:20,980 be some some definite practice effects 405 00:17:27,149 --> 00:17:23,829 which I'll get into but let's talk about 406 00:17:28,380 --> 00:17:27,159 the decline one question that always 407 00:17:30,090 --> 00:17:28,390 comes up as a decline effect and we 408 00:17:32,130 --> 00:17:30,100 definitely see maybe some indications of 409 00:17:34,770 --> 00:17:32,140 that and the reg data with respect to 410 00:17:37,350 --> 00:17:34,780 the physical object if I look at the 411 00:17:39,450 --> 00:17:37,360 proportion of total time of the session 412 00:17:42,240 --> 00:17:39,460 that the object was spent in motion you 413 00:17:44,820 --> 00:17:42,250 kind of see this interesting graph here 414 00:17:46,230 --> 00:17:44,830 where they're after Stage four after the 415 00:17:46,730 --> 00:17:46,240 fourth session it seems to kind of 416 00:17:50,299 --> 00:17:46,740 decline 417 00:17:51,560 --> 00:17:50,309 a bit but this might be explained by 418 00:17:52,790 --> 00:17:51,570 some other factors such I was 419 00:17:54,350 --> 00:17:52,800 experimenting with other things like 420 00:17:56,120 --> 00:17:54,360 taking my hands off and never putting 421 00:17:58,990 --> 00:17:56,130 him on the glass etc which may it took a 422 00:18:02,630 --> 00:17:59,000 little longer to get the object moving 423 00:18:04,130 --> 00:18:02,640 and their overall correlation you know 424 00:18:07,820 --> 00:18:04,140 you can kind of see it also inclines 425 00:18:09,560 --> 00:18:07,830 back again after session 11 so overall 426 00:18:11,000 --> 00:18:09,570 what I experienced was more of a 427 00:18:12,440 --> 00:18:11,010 practice effect it seemed like I was 428 00:18:13,880 --> 00:18:12,450 able to keep the object in motion more 429 00:18:17,960 --> 00:18:13,890 as if I was doing the same thing with my 430 00:18:20,150 --> 00:18:17,970 hands on the glass also this is the the 431 00:18:22,490 --> 00:18:20,160 amount of time it took before the first 432 00:18:23,390 --> 00:18:22,500 movement occurred and you'll see there's 433 00:18:24,890 --> 00:18:23,400 kind of a blip there when I was 434 00:18:26,799 --> 00:18:24,900 experimenting but overall I was able to 435 00:18:29,720 --> 00:18:26,809 get the object moving pretty quickly so 436 00:18:32,270 --> 00:18:29,730 some conclusions I do think that the 437 00:18:36,890 --> 00:18:32,280 method that Shawn endorses is highly 438 00:18:39,110 --> 00:18:36,900 trainable replicable and has a minimal 439 00:18:40,760 --> 00:18:39,120 learning curve and as I mentioned 440 00:18:44,270 --> 00:18:40,770 there's 15 out of 15 tests that I had 441 00:18:47,780 --> 00:18:44,280 some movement with intention the 442 00:18:52,190 --> 00:18:47,790 evidence suggested at least of a decline 443 00:18:54,110 --> 00:18:52,200 effect in the micro and there might be 444 00:18:55,730 --> 00:18:54,120 likely practice effects the macro though 445 00:18:56,960 --> 00:18:55,740 it seemed like the more I practiced I 446 00:19:01,910 --> 00:18:56,970 was having better and better results 447 00:19:03,980 --> 00:19:01,920 over time so my question was it can we 448 00:19:06,169 --> 00:19:03,990 detect a reliable signature of macro 449 00:19:08,180 --> 00:19:06,179 pique or sigh more generally buried 450 00:19:10,100 --> 00:19:08,190 within the random data and I would say 451 00:19:11,660 --> 00:19:10,110 not likely using the present methods 452 00:19:15,080 --> 00:19:11,670 these things seem to be very resilient 453 00:19:18,950 --> 00:19:15,090 to p-values and traditional methods such 454 00:19:21,230 --> 00:19:18,960 forth and I started asking is this 455 00:19:22,520 --> 00:19:21,240 really a signal-to-noise problem or are 456 00:19:24,470 --> 00:19:22,530 we really telling with the frame of 457 00:19:27,049 --> 00:19:24,480 reference problem 458 00:19:28,520 --> 00:19:27,059 these micro effects and especially when 459 00:19:30,440 --> 00:19:28,530 you think about how the sync text was 460 00:19:32,150 --> 00:19:30,450 working they seem to track more with the 461 00:19:34,520 --> 00:19:32,160 profundity of the experience the 462 00:19:35,660 --> 00:19:34,530 meaningfulness your first session where 463 00:19:39,230 --> 00:19:35,670 you're sitting down you're starting a 464 00:19:42,200 --> 00:19:39,240 new regimen of you know meditation might 465 00:19:43,669 --> 00:19:42,210 be more meaningful in some sense then 466 00:19:44,810 --> 00:19:43,679 once the objects kind of moving and you 467 00:19:47,030 --> 00:19:44,820 know you can move it it doesn't have 468 00:19:50,240 --> 00:19:47,040 that same kind of novelty that came up 469 00:19:53,080 --> 00:19:50,250 earlier right so some questions is micro 470 00:19:55,520 --> 00:19:53,090 pique is trainable or is trainable as 471 00:19:57,650 --> 00:19:55,530 macro giving the trium approach so 472 00:19:59,730 --> 00:19:57,660 luckily I was able to put herb and Sean 473 00:20:00,960 --> 00:19:59,740 together and maybe we can work on 474 00:20:02,520 --> 00:20:00,970 you know experimenting with different 475 00:20:04,320 --> 00:20:02,530 means than just these in cross 476 00:20:07,350 --> 00:20:04,330 cross-pollinating methods as far as 477 00:20:09,600 --> 00:20:07,360 meditation techniques etc and can a 478 00:20:11,190 --> 00:20:09,610 signature be identified with it may be 479 00:20:12,419 --> 00:20:11,200 like machine learning approaches looking 480 00:20:14,130 --> 00:20:12,429 at the rigged data maybe there's some 481 00:20:17,340 --> 00:20:14,140 kind of pattern within the data that's 482 00:20:20,100 --> 00:20:17,350 not so amenable just to the p-values for 483 00:20:22,410 --> 00:20:20,110 example so for future directions I'll be 484 00:20:25,160 --> 00:20:22,420 looking at laboratory study with more a 485 00:20:27,720 --> 00:20:25,170 priority to posses hypotheses defined 486 00:20:29,820 --> 00:20:27,730 increased rigor and pre-registration of 487 00:20:31,680 --> 00:20:29,830 course and I'd like to think about 488 00:20:33,120 --> 00:20:31,690 extending the current paradigm into like 489 00:20:36,720 --> 00:20:33,130 remote influencing that Shawn talked 490 00:20:38,730 --> 00:20:36,730 about earlier so just want to briefly 491 00:20:41,760 --> 00:20:38,740 acknowledge especially York and and 492 00:20:43,980 --> 00:20:41,770 Roger for all of the patients while I 493 00:20:46,320 --> 00:20:43,990 was kind of pinging them over email and 494 00:20:48,299 --> 00:20:46,330 Facebook and really trying to hone down 495 00:20:50,190 --> 00:20:48,309 the methods this is not by any means a 496 00:20:51,840 --> 00:20:50,200 tacit endorsement of these methods 497 00:20:54,180 --> 00:20:51,850 perhaps I got it wrong and I'm sure I'll 498 00:20:55,799 --> 00:20:54,190 hear about that in a moment but they 499 00:20:57,570 --> 00:20:55,809 were very very helpful and I do 500 00:21:00,150 --> 00:20:57,580 appreciate that and also of course to 501 00:21:02,790 --> 00:21:00,160 Shawn who taught me this technique who I 502 00:21:04,980 --> 00:21:02,800 think is doing a wonderful work and I 503 00:21:06,900 --> 00:21:04,990 would highly recommend his book if you'd 504 00:21:09,470 --> 00:21:06,910 like to find out yourself how to do this 505 00:21:19,600 --> 00:21:09,480 so thank you 506 00:21:31,610 --> 00:21:23,900 it's not a good sign or a bad sign can 507 00:21:32,960 --> 00:21:31,620 you hear me we were having a little mini 508 00:21:36,799 --> 00:21:32,970 conversation here that maybe you've 509 00:21:39,140 --> 00:21:36,809 demonstrated that your cat a very 510 00:21:42,770 --> 00:21:39,150 powerful wizard because possibly was 511 00:21:44,510 --> 00:21:42,780 involved in multiple yeah this is 512 00:21:47,690 --> 00:21:44,520 definitely a potential confound there's 513 00:21:49,400 --> 00:21:47,700 always the there's the whole story about 514 00:21:55,360 --> 00:21:49,410 the meditator and the cat you've heard 515 00:22:00,169 --> 00:21:57,740 monks cats always bothering him when he 516 00:22:02,720 --> 00:22:00,179 meditates so he ties the cat outside and 517 00:22:04,430 --> 00:22:02,730 now five generations later the students 518 00:22:09,290 --> 00:22:04,440 think to go into the temple to meditate 519 00:22:17,240 --> 00:22:09,300 you have to tie a cat outside yeah could 520 00:22:18,890 --> 00:22:17,250 you talk a little bit okay could you 521 00:22:21,669 --> 00:22:18,900 talk a little bit more about Singh text 522 00:22:26,270 --> 00:22:21,679 because like I'm assuming there's a 523 00:22:29,600 --> 00:22:26,280 number of free written messages that 524 00:22:30,860 --> 00:22:29,610 it's using is that correct it's probably 525 00:22:33,200 --> 00:22:30,870 appropriate to talk about it in the past 526 00:22:34,810 --> 00:22:33,210 tense unfortunately but I hear there's 527 00:22:38,900 --> 00:22:34,820 some good things on the horizon 528 00:22:42,470 --> 00:22:38,910 so it was configurable it did offer 529 00:22:44,299 --> 00:22:42,480 several pallets of potential texts I the 530 00:22:45,860 --> 00:22:44,309 one that I started off with with the cat 531 00:22:48,169 --> 00:22:45,870 that you saw was actually a fortune 532 00:22:51,860 --> 00:22:48,179 cookie set but then I started playing 533 00:22:54,020 --> 00:22:51,870 around with aphorisms or different 534 00:22:55,250 --> 00:22:54,030 quotes or things that had come to me in 535 00:22:58,250 --> 00:22:55,260 different periods that I felt like 536 00:22:59,240 --> 00:22:58,260 really that were insightful or profound 537 00:23:02,510 --> 00:22:59,250 so they were almost kind of like 538 00:23:04,520 --> 00:23:02,520 messages for myself I did make me wonder 539 00:23:06,230 --> 00:23:04,530 though if with a larger palette of 540 00:23:07,910 --> 00:23:06,240 potential questions if it could get a 541 00:23:09,530 --> 00:23:07,920 little bit more specific because if you 542 00:23:11,480 --> 00:23:09,540 have a limited palette there's only so 543 00:23:12,560 --> 00:23:11,490 many things that it could tell you but I 544 00:23:13,669 --> 00:23:12,570 thought some of them are kind of 545 00:23:15,230 --> 00:23:13,679 interesting that they still seem to 546 00:23:17,270 --> 00:23:15,240 match with subjectively what was 547 00:23:23,960 --> 00:23:17,280 happening at the time right okay thank 548 00:23:26,730 --> 00:23:25,380 really fast 549 00:23:28,290 --> 00:23:26,740 I don't think we've told you about this 550 00:23:30,720 --> 00:23:28,300 but we did a study a number of years ago 551 00:23:32,490 --> 00:23:30,730 where we set our sync text messages that 552 00:23:34,290 --> 00:23:32,500 were like 1 through 7 the dog is 553 00:23:37,440 --> 00:23:34,300 sleeping yeah mark told me a little bit 554 00:23:42,480 --> 00:23:37,450 about that 24 hours a day and we matched 555 00:23:45,450 --> 00:23:42,490 the sync text that's yeah that's awesome 556 00:23:47,070 --> 00:23:45,460 thing Tech liked our doll yeah that's 557 00:23:49,640 --> 00:23:47,080 awesome and so it is kind of neat that 558 00:23:53,520 --> 00:23:49,650 there may be ways to kind of pin a 559 00:23:55,260 --> 00:23:53,530 statistic to it but you know it's it's 560 00:23:57,150 --> 00:23:55,270 also kind of interesting about some of 561 00:23:58,980 --> 00:23:57,160 these effects how what we find the most 562 00:24:00,540 --> 00:23:58,990 profound and life is really hard to 563 00:24:02,610 --> 00:24:00,550 quantify in any meaningful way to 564 00:24:04,770 --> 00:24:02,620 someone else and that's another reason 565 00:24:07,020 --> 00:24:04,780 why I really strongly advocate the 566 00:24:09,410 --> 00:24:07,030 first-person approach is that you you 567 00:24:13,020 --> 00:24:09,420 can't necessarily convey an experience 568 00:24:14,670 --> 00:24:13,030 with methodology or statistics and data 569 00:24:18,000 --> 00:24:14,680 tends to be a very thoroughly 570 00:24:19,920 --> 00:24:18,010 unconvincing medium to communicate these 571 00:24:22,590 --> 00:24:19,930 things as we all have been struggling 572 00:24:24,630 --> 00:24:22,600 with for many of you your entire careers 573 00:24:27,450 --> 00:24:24,640 right but if we could get more people 574 00:24:29,640 --> 00:24:27,460 having their own first-hand experience I 575 00:24:30,510 --> 00:24:29,650 think it's better a number one for 576 00:24:33,990 --> 00:24:30,520 understanding the underlying 577 00:24:36,060 --> 00:24:34,000 phenomenology but be then you don't have 578 00:24:37,650 --> 00:24:36,070 to convince them now let's like take 579 00:24:38,880 --> 00:24:37,660 this forward cuz I think it's it's we 580 00:24:41,850 --> 00:24:38,890 got to get well past the point of 581 00:24:43,320 --> 00:24:41,860 proving or establishing the baseline 582 00:24:44,700 --> 00:24:43,330 that this is real and now let's think 583 00:24:46,260 --> 00:24:44,710 about like how do we use it which I 584 00:24:48,150 --> 00:24:46,270 think it's great why we came to the 585 00:24:49,980 --> 00:24:48,160 conference with the theme of applied 586 00:24:52,560 --> 00:24:49,990 light let's take this out and let's do 587 00:24:54,840 --> 00:24:52,570 something with it so yeah more I may 588 00:24:56,640 --> 00:24:54,850 have misunderstood but did you say that 589 00:24:59,430 --> 00:24:56,650 there was a decline effect in the micro 590 00:25:02,550 --> 00:24:59,440 PK but not the macro pk I said it was 591 00:25:04,170 --> 00:25:02,560 suggestive of a decline effect I don't I 592 00:25:06,540 --> 00:25:04,180 don't think I have enough data to put a 593 00:25:08,280 --> 00:25:06,550 really stake in the ground there because 594 00:25:10,260 --> 00:25:08,290 those first I only had a to two 595 00:25:12,840 --> 00:25:10,270 significant sessions out of the whole 596 00:25:14,460 --> 00:25:12,850 batch so yeah but the real question is 597 00:25:17,100 --> 00:25:14,470 if that's correct 598 00:25:19,920 --> 00:25:17,110 why how would you explain a decline 599 00:25:21,720 --> 00:25:19,930 effect in one type of pk but not the 600 00:25:24,150 --> 00:25:21,730 other if they're happening at the same 601 00:25:26,850 --> 00:25:24,160 time so it might go to our understanding 602 00:25:28,620 --> 00:25:26,860 of what the micro PK is actually picking 603 00:25:31,500 --> 00:25:28,630 up on and within the context of this 604 00:25:32,460 --> 00:25:31,510 experiment or within you know like let's 605 00:25:35,750 --> 00:25:32,470 say the global consciousness project 606 00:25:39,890 --> 00:25:35,760 cetera I may not be track 607 00:25:41,000 --> 00:25:39,900 sigh in this context because it's 608 00:25:42,919 --> 00:25:41,010 running in the background it's not like 609 00:25:44,270 --> 00:25:42,929 I was hoping to have a sigh detector 610 00:25:45,770 --> 00:25:44,280 like something I could get reverse 611 00:25:46,840 --> 00:25:45,780 inference from like maybe it rings a 612 00:25:50,120 --> 00:25:46,850 bell like hey something's happening 613 00:25:52,820 --> 00:25:50,130 that's deviating that would be great but 614 00:25:55,130 --> 00:25:52,830 it seems instead to be like the 615 00:25:57,730 --> 00:25:55,140 profundity or the meaningfulness right 616 00:26:00,200 --> 00:25:57,740 and so as I was getting more and more 617 00:26:02,240 --> 00:26:00,210 capable of moving the physical objects 618 00:26:04,340 --> 00:26:02,250 my emotional states more of a baseline 619 00:26:05,720 --> 00:26:04,350 I'm not having this like aha Eureka I 620 00:26:07,390 --> 00:26:05,730 just moved the thing for the first time 621 00:26:09,830 --> 00:26:07,400 I can't believe I can do piqué 622 00:26:11,810 --> 00:26:09,840 experience I was having like let's sit 623 00:26:14,650 --> 00:26:11,820 down let's you know practice our little 624 00:26:17,150 --> 00:26:14,660 thing and let's collect some data and so 625 00:26:19,070 --> 00:26:17,160 perhaps the micro is really more 626 00:26:22,100 --> 00:26:19,080 responding to that emotionality or 627 00:26:23,360 --> 00:26:22,110 something more rich or meaningful at a 628 00:26:24,650 --> 00:26:23,370 different layer that's why I said I 629 00:26:25,789 --> 00:26:24,660 don't know that these the way we're 630 00:26:27,470 --> 00:26:25,799 looking at it as a signal to noise 631 00:26:31,010 --> 00:26:27,480 problem is really the answer it might 632 00:26:32,680 --> 00:26:31,020 need a frame of reference problem in the 633 00:26:35,720 --> 00:26:32,690 frame of reference we think of like 634 00:26:39,169 --> 00:26:35,730 guiding what's guiding my life course 635 00:26:42,230 --> 00:26:39,179 some of these synchronicities or these 636 00:26:43,880 --> 00:26:42,240 big moments are meaningful they're more 637 00:26:45,200 --> 00:26:43,890 powerful at a higher frame of reference 638 00:26:47,690 --> 00:26:45,210 it's not just this like day-to-day 639 00:26:48,919 --> 00:26:47,700 embodied 3d fluctuations that we're 640 00:26:50,780 --> 00:26:48,929 picking up on I don't know if that makes 641 00:26:54,910 --> 00:26:50,790 sense but I'm happy to talk more later
