He is a founder of the Transformative Technology space, serial entrepreneur and social scientist who researches personal transformation and the states of greatest human well-being. Jeffery spent the last 10 years conducting the largest international study on persistent non-symbolic experience (PNSE), which includes the types of consciousness commonly known as: enlightenment, nonduality, the peace that passeth understanding, unitive experience, and hundreds of others. More recently, he has used this research to make systems available to help people obtain profound psychological benefits in a rapid, secular, reliable, and safe way. Whoa … lots to dive into there that are a good fit for Zengineering. One could say, Jeffery studies Zengineering. What a fun guest. We talk with Jeffery a little about his background and how he got into this stuff. Would you be surprised to hear that money wasn’t bringing him happiness, so he started chasing what would? We discuss his books, organizations, research, his personal explorations, and what he’s uncovering about humanity and our pursuits of happiness, or contentedness, or good lives, or whatever it is you think you’re after.

Could a direct high-resolution interface to the brain lead to what might be called practical mental telepathy? What are the prospects for brain enhancement? What are the ethics of direct brain reading and intervention? Mary Lou Jepsen founds programs and companies on the hairy edges of physics, invents solutions and takes them to prototype all the way through to high volume mass production. She's done this at Intel, MIT’s Media Lab, One Laptop Per Child, Pixel Qi, Google X, and Facebook (Oculus).

And there are startling implications—not just for our capabilities as humans, but also for our privacy and individuality. Featured guests: Ariel Garten, Sam Langer, Mary Lou Jepsen.

A l'aide de démonstrations à couper le souffle, l'inventrice Mary Lou Jepsen nous montre que la lumière rouge permet d'observer et potentiellement de stimuler ce qui est à l'intérieur du corps et du cerveau. En nous emmenant aux confins de la physique optique, elle dévoile des technologies nouvelles basées sur la lumière et le son visant à détecter des tumeurs ou mesurer l’activité neurale. Ces technologies pourraient remplacer les IRM par des systèmes moins coûteux, plus efficaces, et portatifs.

Today we open by talking about some astounding work of UC Berkeley neuroscientist Jack Gallant—in which he trained an AI system to infer what test subjects were viewing on a video screen just by watching their brains light up on an MRI. We then get to the truly speculative stuff. Could near-infrared light be used to excite, or trigger neurons? If so, could some creepy descendant of this technology be used to implant memories, or desires into people?

Xconomy Voices brings you conversations with the world’s leading entrepreneurs and innovators. Our very first guest is Mary Lou Jepsen, founder and CEO of San Francisco-based Openwater. Jepsen is putting her expertise in display manufacturing to work to build inexpensive, wearable sensor systems that use infrared light from LCDs to collect data from inside the human body. Such technology could make lifesaving medical-imaging data much more accessible, and maybe even give us “telepathy”—or at least, the ability to see what people are thinking about by looking inside their brains.
