Edwin C. May is an author and former Director of the CIA's secretive Stargate Project. Edwin, a nuclear physicist (Ph.D.) by trade, spent many years at Stanford Research Institute studying ESP (extrasensory perception) and psychokinesis. In 1985, May founded the Cognitive Sciences Laboratory, which would ultimately become the Stargate Program. May worked directly with former SRS guest Joe McMoneagle researching the remote viewing phenomenon. After the closure of the project, May founded The Laboratories for Fundamental Research, a multi-disciplinary research facility that studies psi phenomena via rigorous protocols and analyses techniques of modern science.

This week on Comes A Time, Mike and Oteil welcome Stephan Schwartz, writer, faculty member, and researcher focused on consciousness and extraordinary human functioning. Stephan shares his theories on non-local consciousness and discusses the idea that space-time arises from consciousness, not vice versa. He also goes in-depth on his firsthand experience working with remote viewing as a researcher and practitioner himself. The three also discuss the many parallels between different religions and their access points to the “soul” or continuity of consciousness through gathering, intention, ritual, and meditation.Stephan Schwartz is a Distinguished Consulting Faculty of Saybrook University, a Fellow of the William James Center for Consciousness Studies, Sofia University, and a Research Associate of the Cognitive Sciences Laboratory of the Laboratories for Fundamental Research. For 40 years he has been studying the nature of consciousness, particularly that aspect independent of space and time. Schwartz is part of the small group that founded modern Remote Viewing research, and is the principal researcher studying the use of Remote Viewing in archaeology. Using Remote Viewing he discovered Cleopatra's Palace, Marc Antony's Timonium, ruins of the Lighthouse of Pharos, and sunken ships along the California coast, and in the Bahamas.

The COVID-19 pandemic has forced enterprises into distributed and remote work situations. There is no question that the team of 2019 is not going to be like the team of 2021. Does that mean that we witnessing an evolution of the definition of how teams perform and what is teamwork in those situations? Join MINDWORKS host, Daniel Serfaty, as he talks to Dr. Nancy Cooke, the Director of Arizona State University’s Center for Human, AI and Robot Teams, and Dr. Stephen Fiore, Director of the Cognitive Sciences Laboratory at University of Central Florida, about the evolution of teams.Listen to the entire interview in The Magic of Teams 1: The ABCs of Teams with Nancy Cooke and Stephen Fiore
Effective communication can make or break a team. Most people would assume that more communication would lead to a better team. However, is that really the case: is more communication better in teams? Join MINDWORKS host, Daniel Serfaty, as he discusses this question with Dr. Nancy Cooke, the Director of Arizona State University’s Center for Human, AI and Robot Teams, and Dr. Stephen Fiore, Director of the Cognitive Sciences Laboratory at University of Central Florida. Listen to the entire interview in Episode 7, The Magic of Teams Part 1: The ABCs of Teams.
Since the age of AI is upon us, it begs the question: “how will humans and AI work together?” Before we can answer this question, we must understand how teams work in the first place. Join MINDWORKS host, Daniel Serfaty, as he talks to Dr. Nancy Cooke, the Director of Arizona State University’s Center for Human, AI and Robot Teams, and Dr. Stephen Fiore, Director of the Cognitive Sciences Laboratory at University of Central Florida, about the importance of studying teams.
Much of our work today gets carried out by teams. Teams of humans, teams of humans and machines, distributed teams, virtual teams—almost all of us operate in teams. But what exactly is a team? What differentiates high performing teams from low performing ones? Can advances in team science help improve team performance? Join MINDWORKS host Daniel Serfaty for the first of a five-part series on “The Magic of Teams.” In this first episode exploring “The ABCs of Teams,” Daniel talks to Dr. Nancy Cooke, the Director of Arizona State University’s Center for Human, AI and Robot Teams, and Dr. Stephen Fiore, Director of the Cognitive Sciences Laboratory at University of Central Florida, leading experts in the field of team science. Nancy and Steve are not only very well versed in the research and science of teams, but they also come from very multidisciplinary backgrounds, ranging from philosophy to psychology to engineering and everything in between. And perhaps this is our first insight into this complex domain of teams—that we basically need many arrows in our quiver to take advantage of the opportunities that working in teams presents to us.

Using Remote Viewing he discovered Cleopatra's Palace, Marc Antony's Timonium, ruins of the Lighthouse of Pharos, and sunken ships along the California coast, and in the Bahamas. He also uses remote viewing to examine the future. Since 1978, he has been getting people to remote view the year 2050, and out of that has come a complex trend analysis. His submarine experiment, Deep Quest, using Remote Viewing helped determine that non-local consciousness is not an electromagnetic phenomenon. Other areas of experimental study include research into creativity, meditation, and Therapeutic Intent/Healing. He is the author of more than 130 technical reports and papers. In addition to his experimental studies he has written numerous magazine articles for Smithsonian, OMNI, American History, American Heritage, The Washington Post, The New York Times, as well as other magazines and newspapers. He hás produced and written a number television documentaries, and has written four books: The Secret Vaults of Time, The Alexandria Project, Mind Rover, Opening to the Infinite,and his latest,The 8 Laws of Change. Websites: www.stephanaschwartz.com www.schwartzreport.net www.explorejournal.com/contents/schwartz The Alexandria Project: The Alexandria Projectis the true story of how researchers from five universities and organizations went to Egypt to put the claims of a psychic ability known as Remote Viewing to the ultimate test. Was it possible, under rigorously controlled conditions, for some part of the human mind to locate and describe ancient sites known to exist, but now lost to history? How good was Remote Viewing when compared with electronic remote sensing technologies traditionally used by archaeologists? This book, and the research papers and film that accompany it, provides the surprising answers.
Join Stephan Schwartz as he shares an anthropologic view of how social outcome data can lead us to foster change that cultivates well being. Stephan takes us through a deeper look at the 8 Laws of Change. If change comes down to 8 laws, could you employ them to make real change? A science-based strategy for achieving enduring wellness-oriented change on a personal, societal, and global Level, these 8 laws of behavior enable any person or small group – even ordinary people without great wealth, official position, or physical power – to bend the arc of history to create successful lasting life-affirming transformation.
