Fourmilab. The Impending Change in Global Consciousness: Our Archaic Revival. In 1974, American professor of psychology Dr Clare W Graves wrote an article for The Futurist magazine titled Human Nature Prepares for a Momentous Leap.

The Impending Change in Global Consciousness: Our Archaic Revival

Graves described an impending change in human consciousness that would be, in his words: …the most difficult, but at the same time the most exciting transition the human race has faced to date. It is not merely a transition to a new level of existence but the start of a new “movement” in the symphony of human history.Tweet His claim wasn’t just speculation though, it was based on seven years of field research plus almost 20 years of data analysis. Unfortunately he died before publishing his research findings and therefore his work remains largely unknown. Dr Graves’ findings provide a credible map for what philosopher and psychedelic pioneer Terence McKenna called The Archaic Revival. One of the special gifts Dr Graves brought to the field of developmental psychology was his ability at pattern recognition.

Tiffany O'Callaghan, CultureLab editor (Image: DPA/Press Association Images) An architect and designer with a PhD from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Mitchell Joachim is the founder of the non-profit green design group Terreform and a leader in the "urbaneering" movement, which invites communities to participate in urban design projects.

His latest project is a collaboration between architects and biologists to construct a biosynthetic seat. New Scientist talked to him about experimenting with synthetic biology, his controversial "meat house" project and whether one day we'll be able to grow our own homes - and villages.

POEMS syndrome (also known as Crow–Fukase syndrome, Takatsuki disease, or PEP syndrome) is a rare medical syndrome.

POEMS syndrome

It is defined as the combination of a plasma-cell proliferative disorder (typically myeloma), polyneuropathy, and effects on many other organ systems. It begins in middle age – the average age at onset is 50 – and affects up to twice as many men as women.[1] If untreated it is progressive and often fatal, with only 60% of sufferers remaining alive five years after onset.[1] However, the symptoms can improve if the blood disorder is successfully treated.

Signs and symptoms[edit] The following are the most common clinical features of POEMS syndrome, either symptoms or signs.[1][4] The first two are present by definition; the remainder are frequent but not universal, and different individuals experience different combinations of them. Defining features[edit] The polyneuropathy is usually symmetrical and distal. Common features[edit] Possible features[edit] Criteria[edit] R.

La nada no está vacía - Astronomia

Hay un vacío cósmico a 10.000 años luzSe trata de una oquedad que mide más o menos 1.000 años luz y en la que los astrónomos aseguran que no hay galaxias ni estrellas, ni la misteriosa “materia oscura”. Este agujero –que no hay que confundir con un agujero negro– está en la constelación de Erídano. Un conjunto ¿vacío? La versión que los matemáticos dan de la nada es el conjunto vacío. Pero, ¿cómo puede haber un conjunto de nada? La naturaleza aborrece el vacío”. Mientras seguimos peleando con estas ideas, nuestro concepto del vacío ha evolucionado. Los postuladores de la teoría atómica rival, entre ellos Leucipo y Demócrito, discrepaban. Sustancia incorpórea Newton apelaba a este medio como marco para sus leyes del movimiento. Su rival alemán, Gottfried Leibniz, no estaba de acuerdo. El misterio del imán Einstein vino al rescate.
