Are psychic phenomena real? In this episode of Waking Cosmos, Adrian talks to Garret Moddel, a physicist at the University of Colorado who has carried out extensive scientific experiments exploring ESP, also known as “psi” phenomena.

 

Garret has conducted experiments exploring phenomena ranging from telepathy to precognition, and mind-matter interaction. He even recounts how he and a number of students used remote viewing to successfully predict the stock market.  In addition to the evidence of psychic abilities, Garret shares his thoughts on the Global Consciousness Project - a global mind-matter experiment believed to measure collective shifts of attention in the global human population.  Of particular interest to Garret is the mysterious role of scientists' expectations and beliefs in the outcomes of their experiments.
