Dean Radin shares research findings at the Science of Consciousness Conference in Tuscon 2016. He is shown with Stuart Hameroff, host and co-sponsor.

In the classic double-slit experiment of quantum mechanics, light, electrons and other quantum elements behave either as waves or particles…

An unprecedented global "supersociety" may be emerging -- in spite of resource depletion, pollution and conflict that seem to be driving us to dystopia.

This surprisingly positive prospect is the fruition of key developments that are now germinating and sending out their first tentative shoots. They all engage a vastly underutilized resource: the best that is in people.

Among these highly-human developments, seven of the most imminent and notable are these:

Bigger bucks ahead … because money itself is being re-invented!  But it’s not really about the money; material wealth may be a secondary motivator.

The new money is 100% internet-based. It flows free and fast like electrons, and it comes with superpowers. Call it money 2.0, internet money, or supermoney. “Up, up and away!”

(Note: The term "supermoney" is used by at least two companies: supermoney.com of Santa Ana, California; and…

With recurring drought likely as climate change mounts, California may have to move to where the water is. The Great Lakes region, say, or Bangladesh.

Alternatively, water could be brought to where California is, now that the Colorado River isn't…

It appears that dogs as well as people need to build their job skills to compete.

So says Richard W. Samson, author of the employment report, “Highly-Human Jobs: The New Work That Technology Can't Take Over.”

Inspired by an October 16 article in the New York Times, "Devices Go Nose to Nose…

In any encounter with others, such as a meeting, the most impressive thing may not be what you say or how you say it, but how you present yourself non-verbally.

Assertive body language is one of the most basic human skills, and with the right approach, anyone can get better at it in minutes.  

In this video from TEDTalks, social…

Will the working people of tomorrow be mostly on their own, independent service providers rather than employees? There are signs that this could be so, according to Catherine Rampell, who writes about economics for The New York Times.

See her recent breakthrough report: …

MONEY: While employment hangs back, a whole new form of work is straining at the starting gate. That's the conclusion of a special report from EraNova Institute. It documents an emerging shift to the next level of employment beyond today's service and knowledge economy, non-automatable work in the "highly-human economy."

MONEY: No matter what you do for a living, you may do better if you pay less attention to making money than to delivering value. We see the proof of this in --

• The car dealer who wins repeat business by showing an interest in a car's performance after the sale. 
• The grocery clerk who survives a downsizing because he smiles at people, seeks…

MIND: Intentionality is coming to the fore to sharpen everything from visual perception to creativity.Our minds may be changing into meta-minds that not only think or create or remember, but first think how to think or create or remember, thereby magnifying performance. 

The common approach, in all facets of mind, is to invoke a mental model…

SCIENCE: Energy-related economic, security, and environmental threats are intensifying the national conversation about how to regain energy leadership and competitiveness, restore jobs and prosperity, and build a secure and climate-safe energy…

MONEY: The coming medium of exchange may be all-digital. Already our coins and bills have been largely superseded by credit cards, which rely on digital technology. Banks are still the intermediaries, however, and "real" money -- in some sense or degree -- backs up our VISA, MasterCard or AMEX transactions. 

With Bitcoin, the decentralized electronic…

CULTURE: In a pilot project in Great Britain, young people watch lots of movies like everyone else, but with a difference. That difference is building character, hope, expectations, and social responsibility. If widely implemented, the approach could plant the seed for better lives, communities, and nations.   

The project began in 2006 when British filmmaker Beeban…

HEALTH: Well, you can't really eat a trend, but you can eat the results of this one -- for pleasure, better health, and a greener environment. Heirloom seed growing is catching on everywhere, in small organic farms, backyard gardens, and pots on apartment windowsills. 

Why…

LIVING: Gallup pollster Dalia Mogahed shares surprising data on Egyptian people's attitudes and hopes, with very positive implications for the future not only of Egypt but the entire region. This in spite of recent setbacks to the democracy movement.

There's a positive take-away, also, for Westerners. By similarly elevating their optimistic…
