I think our 2011 report on jewellery and mining Uplifting the Earth, still rings true for those seeking a positive role for industry, despite annoying the incumbents and greenwashers when it came out.

At the bottom of this update I list more talks and workshops I'm doing in the coming months in Geneva, Copenhagen, Cape Town, London, Lancaster, and Ambleside (yay!). But first, I want to share some of my recent creations. After "coming out" as a monetary activi

In my school in Copenhagen, we offered a two-year program based on the biomechanical cranial techniques I had learned from my teacher, Main Gehin. For many years, I started t
onsider twin particles separated by a long distance. Physicists call this ‘space like separation. All this means is one particle is measured on, say, Earth and the other on Mars, so relativity is significant in the experiment. This may be impractical today but there is no reason the experiment could not

The Copenhagen interpretation of quantum mechanics — named after the main center of early quantum theory at the Niels Bohr Institute — says the cat is both alive an

Thus, an electron on Earth can emit a virtual photon that could travel to Alpha Centauri, four light-years away, and that pho- ton can still produce a force on an electron the
