Neuroquantology - The Psychedelic Universe - The Doors of Perception
Psychedelics help in communicating with quantal reality and quantal life. Psychedelics have aromatic rings structure like phenolic compounds and benzene which have macroscopic quantal states and have a wave-particle existence. They can open up ion channels in the neurons and create electron gradients. The electron can exist in multiple superpositions in the multiverse and this helps the psychedelics to help the brain communicate with quantal reality. Psychedelic experiences include fractal geometries and 3-dimensional constructs. It also includes figures like angels and demons. They are algorithmic intelligence structured in quantal foam and quantal vacuum constituting quantal life forms. They are not similar to physical intelligence but can be termed as post-biologic intelligence. The quantal life forms and post-biologic life or algorithmic life structured in quantal reality constitute God-like intelligence.

Pathways Into the Study of Ancient Sciences
These essays offer a sampling of the incredible wealth of knowledge and expertise of David E. Pingree (1933-2005), Brown Univ. Professor of the History of Math. and Classics. His contributions to the history of science are immeasurable. Pingree defined science as "a systematic explanation of perceived or imaginary phenomena" "This broad view of science includes astronomy, mathematics, and other sciences with which we are familiar today as well as those subjects deemed nonscientific by today's standards, such as astrology and magic . . . ."[Pingree] repeatedly demonstrated that not only were each of these subjects worthy of study in their own right, but that in the Ancient and Medieval periods these fields were closely interconnected.

Apprenticeship Writings of Frank Norris 1896-1898
Frank Norris (1870-1902) has long been recognized by cultural historians as a "touchstone" figure, clearly signaling in 1899 the emergence of an Amer. school of Literary Naturalism. "McTeague: A Story of San Francisco" secured this honor for him that year as it registered more fully than any previous Amer. novel the Darwinian view of life that is the essential characteristic of all subsequent Naturalistic fictions. It thus marked as well the rejection of the Victorian Era's habitually idealistic representations of human nature and its basically religious world-view, offering instead a post-metaphysical portrait of the human condition that has remained popular in 20th-cent. literary and intellectual circles. Includes all of the known writings of Norris published between 11 April 1896 and 1897. Illus.

Mindful by Nature
Connection to the natural world, to community, and to ourselves is fundamental to our well-being. When we nurture these connections, we thrive, drawing strength from the web of interdependence that sustains life. In an increasingly fragmented and urbanized world, accessing nature and knowing how to engage with it can be challenging. Mindful by Nature points the way, bridging nature connection and mindfulness practices.Through personal stories and nature studies, Tim Drake and Jason Hamilton inspire readers to discover their interconnectedness with Life. Guided practices offer ways to deepen sensory awareness, face challenges with compassion, and take wise action in our lives. Whether in urban or rural landscapes, readers are invited to engage with nature, cultivating a deep sense of belonging. The teachings emphasize accessibility and playfulness, encouraging readers to reconnect with the living world wherever they are.At its heart, this book is a call to dissolve the illusion that we are separate from nature. Mindful by Nature enables readers to rediscover the profound unity between themselves and the natural world and empowers us to become stewards of the Earth.
Fire in a Wire
"A bold thesis...weaves anecdote and analysis...provocative...futurism by way of personal odyssey." -- Brian K. Mahoney, Chronogram Magazine"Congratulations Steve Nelson for your remarkable time and effort to capture this moment in human history! Well done."-- Rouzbeh Yassini-Fard, inventor of internet over cable"A provocative invitation to further thinking...accessible and enjoyable...Steven Reed Nelson is a free ranging thinker."-- Charles Giuliano, Berkshire Fine Arts"He isn't just 'some guy' with an idea...a long career in communications and technology...his theory is worth reading." -- Jennifer Huberdeau, The Berkshire EagleIf you read SAPIENS by Juval Noah Harari, then you must read FIRE IN A WIRE.Fire tells the story Sapiens missed, about the most momentous development in recent human history: using electricity.Just as fire enabled the evolution of our prehistoric ancestors, so is electricity empowering our ongoing evolution now.Electricity is the new fire. Fire in a wire.Many archaic humans arose and then went extinct, like the Neanderthals. Conventional wisdom says Homo sapiens is the sole surviving species of human. But Steven Reed Nelson disagrees. He writes that evolution does not end with sapiens. A dynamic new species is emerging, not in some imagined future but living among us today: Homo electric.The electrified world is our natural habitat. We use electricity for everything: from providing food to medical care to artificial intelligence to sex. We can't live without it. It is fundamentally changing who we are. We can see things, hear things, do things, know things and imagine things not possible without electricity.We no longer live in the natural world observed by Charles Darwin and governed by "the survival of the fittest." We can override natural selection. We can alter our DNA. We are taking control of our own evolution. We can, and we must, if we are to survive threats like climate change.If you are curious about who we were, who we are and who we yet might be, read Fire in a Wire. It will challenge you to rethink who you are and who you are becoming as a human being in the Electric Age.

Increasing the Sensitivity of Surface Acoustic Wave Chemical Sensors and Other Chemical Sensing Investigations
The work involves the fabrication and testing of three different surface acoustic wave (SAW) device designs, an investigation of nanowires sensitive to chemicals and preconcentrator prototypes to include with chemical sensors. The SAW chemical sensor designs include modifications to a basic SAW device to see if the sensitivity of the SAW device is increased. The modifications consist of etched trenches along the propagation field, coating the device with carbon nanotubes (CNTs) under the chemically sensitive layer and coating CNTs on top of the chemically sensitive layer. SAW devices are coated with Nafion, a polymer sensitive to ethanol. The tests indicate that trenches etched between the transducer fields increase the sensitivity of the SAW devices. The increase of sensitivity is signified by a shift of peak frequency of an extra 100kHz over the unaltered device after five minutes of flowing ethanol.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
