Our books, our movies—our imaginations—are obsessed with extra dimensions, alternate timelines, and the sense that all we see might not be all there is. In short, we can't stop thinking about the multiverse. As it turns out, physicists are similarly captivated. In The Allure of the Multiverse, physicist Paul Halpern tells the epic story of how science became besotted with the multiverse, and the controversies that ensued. The questions that brought scientists to this point are big and deep: Is reality such that anything can happen, must happen? How does quantum mechanics “choose” the outcomes of its apparently random processes? And why is the universe habitable? Each question quickly leads to the multiverse. Drawing on centuries of disputation and deep vision, from luminaries like Nietzsche, Einstein, and the creators of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Halpern reveals the multiplicity of multiverses that scientists have imagined to make sense of our reality. Whether we live in one of many different possible universes, or simply the only one there is, might never be certain. But Halpern shows one thing for sure: how stimulating it can be to try to find out. Shermer and Halpern discuss: definitions of universe and types of multiverses • Is the multiverse science, metaphysics, or faith? • theists claim the “multiverse” is just handwaving around the God answer • many worlds interpretation of quantum mechanics? • inflationary and Darwinian cosmology • infinity and eternity • multiple dimensions • string theory • cyclical universes • Big Bounce • Anthropic Principle (weak, strong, participatory) • time travel • sliding doors, contingency, and the multiverse. Dr. Paul Halpern is the author of 18 popular science books, exploring the subjects of space, time, higher dimensions, dark energy, dark matter, exoplanets, particle physics, and cosmology. The recipient of a Guggenheim Fellowship, a Fulbright Scholarship, and an Athenaeum Literary Award, he has contributed to Nature, Physics Today, Aeon, NOVA's “The Nature of Reality” physics blog, and Forbes “Starts with a Bang!” He has appeared on numerous radio and television shows including “Future Quest,” “Science Friday,” “Radio Times,” “Coast to Coast AM,” “The Simpsons 20thAnniversary Special,” and C-SPAN's “BookTV.” He appeared previously on the show for his book Synchronicity: The Epic Quest to Understand the Quantum Nature of Cause and Effect. His new book, The Allure of the Multiverse, describes the controversial history of higher dimensional and parallel universe schemes in science and culture.
Quest | Does My Past Determine My Future? by Keenan Eaton on December 4th, 2022.
"I think in terms of consciousness, it seems to me that these Feelings of Knowing are perhaps the conscious tip of the iceberg for this huge amount of unconscious processing that's going on of all this information in our environment, where maybe I couldn't tell you why I know there's danger, but I know." - Alea Skwara, PhD Candidate in the Perception, Cognition, and Cognitive Neuroscience (PCCN) area of the Psychology Department at UC Davis Global Workspace Theory: Exploring Evidence for Widespread Integration & Broadcasting of Conscious Signals - Part Two Episode 17 of the Podcast On Consciousness with Bernard Baars explores the links between cutting edge brain evidence and how that supports or updates our understanding of consciousness and the Global Workspace Theory (GWT). Talking Points 0:00 – Intro 5:24 – History of Global Workspace Theory 8:23 – Discussion Paper #1: Baars et al. (2013) Global Workspace Dynamics 9:32 - What is meant by “Widespread Integration?” 17:22 – The Neuroscience of Widespread Integration 25:26 – Corticothalamic Loops in Relation to GWT 30:10 – Localist vs Local-Global Theories 35:46 – “The Question of Introspection” 43:01 – How is Consciousness Assessed? 49:58 – Feelings of Knowing (FOKs) 54:33 – Discussion Paper #2: Gaillard et al.

(2019) A Switch & Wave of Neuronal Activity 1:14:55 – Brain Oscillations: Gamma and Beta Bands 1:20:56 – Paper #4: Deco et al. 2019 Revisiting the Global Workspace 1:26:29 – Functional Rich Clubs 1:41:50 – The Future Quest for Consciousness Summary Episode 17 is the second in a three-part series on GWT Origins & Evidence, featuring our student interviewers, Alea Skwara and Ilian Daskalov. Together with Bernard Baars, they examine the recent neuroscientific study of consciousness. After some quick introductions, Alea briefly summarizes their discussion in Part I on the history of Global Workspace, how the theory evolved, as well as some of the core hypotheses it generates. Now we dive into the brain evidence. Global Workspace Theory (or GWT) was first formulated in the ‘80s as a psychological theory of how consciousness might operate. In Part I, we talked about the spotlight metaphor. One of the key predictions of GWT is “widespread integration and broadcasting.” This seems to be one of the predictions that can be most directly tested by brain activity, our topic today. Cortical Binding and Propagation The trio delves into the first of 4 papers, namely Baars' 2013 paper called “Global Workspace Dynamics.” This paper comes as the result of four decades of cumulative work, which pulls together the evidence as of 2013. One of its key points connecting GWT to neuroscientific evidence is that GWT does not require (or suggest) an “anatomical hub” of coordinated activity, but, instead, a momentary, dynamic “functional hub.” Bernie, Alea and Ilian explore the question: What is the difference between an anatomical hub and a functional hub, and what does it mean to say that a functional hub is dynamic? Bernie explains how the conscious brain is characterized by ‘widespread integration and broadcasting.' The cortex is like a large city with specialized neighborhoods, streets and alleys. There is an ever changing flow of traffic between them. He then suggests that the thalamus is more than a relay station of the brain, and that the sensory thalamus is an entryway to the giant cortico-thalamic (CT) system, which integrates and broadcasts conscious information. Next, Ilian asks how we can experimentally test conscious processes. This moves the conversation to Feelings of Knowing (FOKs), which is one fundamental type of conscious experience. Bernie makes the point that Feelings of Knowing are an integral part of the conscious stream. Evidence for GWT: Conscious Access, Gamma Activity, and Functional Rich Clubs The next paper is by Gaillard et al. (2009). It is an outstanding example of reading work from France by Dehaene and Changeux in Paris. The title is “Converging Intracranial Markers of Conscious Access, ” and it represents probably the most precise and accurate evidence so far for cortical integration and broadcasting. The experiment compared conscious and unconscious processing of briefly flashed words. Our trio asks the question: How does the observed effect of longer lasting and more widespread brain activity during conscious perception of a word offer support for GWT? Alea explains how this evidence confirms that conscious perceptual activity is propagated widely throughout the cortex. The third target paper is from a famous Yale epilepsy research group, led by Hal Blumenfeld, and the first author is Wendy X. Herman. It is titled, “A Switch and Wave of Neuronal Activity in the Cerebral Cortex During the First Second of Conscious Perception” (2019), and reinforces our message. Alea summarizes this third paper in the discussion, which looks at conscious perception in humans by using direct electrical recordings from the cerebral cortex during a visual perception task. Herman et al. discovered that stimuli that were consciously perceived elicited large-scale network switching, followed by waves of gamma activity. These findings support the hypothesis that such large waves are an indication of coordinated local-global activity. Our trio asks: What might be the special significance of the gamma and beta bands to consciousness? An important recent paper by Deco et al. (2019) links this research to the major discovery of the cortical connectome, the street map of the cortex. It is called “Revisiting the Global Workspace.” This fourth and final paper, with coauthors Deco, Vidaurre, and Kringelbach, examined neuroimages from over 1000 participants and created a full brain hierarchy in what the researchers defined as ‘functional rich clubs.' These ‘clubs' correlate activity between brain regions and strengthen the idea that Global Workspace is dynamic, but not necessarily in a grossly visible way. Our trio explores: What does Deco's idea of an “invariant global workspace” mean? The Future Quest for Consciousness As our trio wraps up, Ilian wants to know about the future of “the quest for consciousness.” Bernie and Alea agree that combining brain recordings with phenomenological interviews during meditation is very exciting. Links to Papers Discussed in the Episode Paper 1: “Global Workspace Dynamics: Cortical ‘Binding and Propagation' Enables Conscious Contents Paper 2: Converging Intracranial Markers of Conscious Access Paper 3: A Switch and Wave of Neuronal Activity in the Cerebral Cortex During the First Second of Conscious Perception Paper 4: Revisiting the Global Workspace: Orchestration of the Functional Hierarchical Organisation of the Human Brain Bios Alea Skwara is a PhD candidate at the University of California, Davis where she studies cognitive neuroscience. Her primary research focuses on compassion and responses to suffering. The main question that Alea is currently trying to answer is whether meditational practices can expand the range of people that a person can feel compassion for. Ilian Daskalov is a senior undergraduate student at University of California, Irvine where he studies Cognitive Science. He holds an associate degree with honors from San Diego Mesa College. His research interests include sleep, psychedelics, and artificial intelligence. He is passionate about communicating science and promoting critical thinking. Bernard Baars is best known as the originator of global workspace theory and global workspace dynamics, a theory of human cognitive architecture, the cortex and consciousness. Bernie is a former Senior Fellow in Theoretical Neurobiology at the Neurosciences Institute in La Jolla, CA, and Editor in Chief of the Society for MindBrain Sciences. He is author of many scientific papers, articles, essays, chapters, and acclaimed books and textbooks. Bernie is the recipient of the 2019 Hermann von Helmholtz Life Contribution Award by the International Neural Network Society, which recognizes work in perception proven to be paradigm changing and long-lasting.

Paul Halpern is Professor of Physics at the University of the Sciences in Philadelphia. A prolific author, he has written sixteen science books and numerous articles. His interests range from space, time and higher dimensions to cultural aspects of science. The recipient of a Guggenheim Fellowship, Fulbright Scholarship, and an Athenaeum Literary Award, he has appeared on C-SPAN, the History Channel, the Discovery Channel, the PBS series "Future Quest," and "The Simpsons 20th Anniversary Special." Halpern's books include Time Journeys, Cosmic Wormholes, The Cyclical Serpent, Faraway Worlds, The Great Beyond, Brave New Universe, What's Science Ever Done for Us?, Collider, What's the Matter with Pluto?, Edge of the Universe, Einstein's Dice and Schrödinger's Cat, The Quantum Labyrinth, Synchronicity and Flashes of Creation. In his most recent book, Flashes of Creation, Professor Halpern breaks down the great debate over the Big Bang and the continuing quest to understand the fate of the universe. In Flashes of Creation, Paul Halpern Shows that just decades ago its mere mention caused sparks to fly. At the center of the debate were Russian American physicist George Gamow and British astrophysicist Fred Hoyle. Gamow insisted that a fiery explosion explained how the elements of the universe were created. Attacking the idea as half-baked, Hoyle countered that the universe was engaged in a never-ending process of creation. The battle was fierce. In the end, Gamow turned out to be right — mostly — and Hoyle, along with his many achievements, is remembered for giving the theory the silliest possible name: "The Big Bang." Halpern captures the brilliance of both thinkers and reminds us that even those proved wrong have much to teach us about boldness, imagination, and the universe itself. Support our Sponsors!

My guest is none other than Evan "Doc" Shaner. Doc was the artist on issues of Adventures of Superman, Doom Patrol, Future Quest and The Terrifics. Before he became exclusive to DC, Doc also drew Flash Gordon and Kings Watch for Dynamite Entertainment, Does Doc like being an exclusive artist for DC? Does he find it limiting? We talk about one dream project he would love to do for DC and a dream cross-over with another publisher. Doc has worked with several very talented colorist over the years. Why did he decide to color the twelve-part series Strange Adventures himself? He talks about working on the book with writer Tom King, artist Mitch Gerads and how he and Mitch's art will work together to tell the story. We also talk about his favorite newspaper comic strips growing up and what he reads today. Why did Doc decide to switch his career path from playing trumpet to becoming an artist? And how did he get the nick name "Doc"? When I Kick Back With The Creator I learn what would be Doc's action figure accessory (it's not a pencil!), his beverage of choice and what he knows now he wished he knew when he was younger.

We are all on a path that leads to a destination. Sometimes, our path leads to a desired destination. Other times, our path takes us places we never thought we would go. But no matter what path we may find ourselves on today, we can find rest in knowing that God holds our future and will get us to His desired destination. Join us this week as we discover the preferred future God has for all of us. Speaker: Jeff Jones, Senior Pastor
We all have a place we want to go, a goal we want to achieve. But one of the biggest challenges in getting to where we want to go is not getting off track. Distractions don’t need to be big to pull us off course. If we’re not careful, a lesser thing can keep us from reaching our desired destination. Join us this week to learn how to stay on course to create your tomorrow today. Speaker: Ryan Leak, Teaching Pastor
Community is a key part of our lives. Having people around us to love us, support us, and encourage us is vital to our success. But we don’t just need people; we need the right kind of people to help us stay on a wise path that will lead to our preferred future. Join us this week to learn how to build your crew that will help create the tomorrow you want today. Speaker: Jeff Jones, Senior Pastor
Most of us have a vision for our future. To make our vision a reality, we think we have to set big goals and take big risks. But oftentimes, we need to make small changes and form new habits in our daily lives to take steps toward our desired destination. Join us this week as we talk about how to cultivate crucial habits for our future. Speaker: Jeff Jones, Senior Pastor
Our direction determines our destination. Getting to where we want to go requires more than a big vision for our lives, more than good intentions, and more than making a good choice. It requires choosing a path that leads to significance, fulfillment, and joy. Join us as this week to learn how to pick a path that leads to a desired destination. Speaker: Jeff Jones, Senior Pastor
We want to lead a life of impact and make a difference in our world. We want to leave behind a legacy that we can be proud of. But oftentimes, we end up settling for a comfortable, complacent life. We are afraid to get out of our comfort zone to embrace the vision God has for our future. Join us as we embark on Future Quest and discover what steps we can take to create our tomorrow today. Speaker: Jeff Jones, Senior Pastor

Wendy and Richard Pini have announced a brand new ElfQuest series coming from Dark Horse Comics! The first issue of "ElfQuest - Stargazer's Hunt" will premiere on November 13, 2019. The Pinis joined me to talk all about what they have in store for new series. As devilishly tight-lipped about specific plot-points as ever, they still managed to share an incredibly delicious amount of info to whet your appetite--from the nature of Skywise's titular "hunt" and Jink's role in it to the connections of this story to both Final Quest and Future Quest--and much more. They also talk about a new creative process for this tale and how series artist Sonny Strait is adding his unique talents to it. You don't want to miss this episode!
Two returning guests talk about their action adventure heroes that have grace and guts! First, Ron Randall talks about his third Kickstarter, a graphic novel about Mercy St. Claire entitled Trekker: Battlefields. Ron is well known for his work on DC’s Sgt. Rock, Future Quest, Astro City, and many other characters for publishers over the course of his distinguished career. Did you know he also illustrated Doom Patrol in the late 1990s? I get Ron’s reaction to the new Doom Patrol series and we discuss movie spoilers. Please note we do not discuss any blockbuster super hero movie spoilers. (I’m looking at you Avengers End Game!) Instead, we marvel at how we managed to avoid Avengers End Game spoilers and how it is essential for a script unfold on the screen as the writers intended, rather than through spoilers! My second guest Sam Johnson is a huge fan of Doom Patrol. Sam explains why he hasn’t see the first season yet, and gives his impression based on the trailers. Sam has launched his next Kickstarter for Geek-Girl. This campaign is for the Crime War Trade Paperback and issue #5 of the ongoing Geek-Girl series. Sam is so dedicated to the success of Geek-Girl he has taken off work to focus 100% on managing his Kickstarter campaign! Finally, I ask both guests which defunct technology they miss the most.

We also said goodbye to two amazing books this year that ended after 50 and 60 issues: The Sixth Gun by Collen Bunn and Brian Hurtt and Chew by John Layman and Rob Guillory, respectively. Also, a shout-out to some great collections that came out this year: The return of Blue Monday by Chynna Clugston-Flores, IDW's Artist Edition for the DC War books (featuring Kirby, Kubert, Kahinger and people whose last name didn't start with K) and the Master of Kung Fu omnibuses, books I never thought I would ever see collected. There's some brief chat throughout the podcast about non-comics stuff, because we just can't stick to one topic for a whole show.
