Time is not what you think it is. Neither are you.
Welcome to a world where participants in psychology experiments respond to pictures they haven’t seen yet … where physicists influence the past behavior of a light beam by measuring its photons now … and where dreamers and writers literally remember their future.
This interdisciplinary course surveys the scientific and psychological principles that allow the future to affect the present. It also explores the powerful taboos that have barred precognition from mainstream science and academic discussion since the Enlightenment, and why these taboos are finally breaking down. Wargo, an Anthropologist and historian of ESP research, explores the incredible implications of precognition for psychology and culture.
Over the course of 6 weeks, we will examine—though illustrated lecture and class discussion—precognition and the evidence for its veracity, the physics of retrocausation, why our future speaks in symbols and how it relates to the Freudian unconscious, dream premonitions and survivor’s guilt, Carl Jung and the notion synchronicity, and the lives of a variety of precogs including Philip K. Dick, Andrei Tarkovsky and others.
Eric Wargo has a PhD in anthropology and is the author of several acclaimed books on time, the unconscious, and creativity, including From Nowhere, Precognitive Dreamwork and the Long Self, and Time Loops. He also writes about science fiction and parapsychology at his popular blog The Nightshirt.
