Apr 18, 2020

Nick Thomas, based on indications by Rudolf Steiner, developed a mathematical formulation of his etheric conceptions based on projective geometry. …

[Old] Chapter 14: Rudolf Steiner – A Spiritual Scientific World View [New Ch.16 V0.1]

Apr 18, 2020

Rudolf Steiner took the philosophical ideas which were implicit in the works of Goethe and took them further. Significantly further. It has taken me many years to even begin to understand just some of his philosophical and scientific ideas…

[Old] Chapter 13: Goethe’s World View [New Ch.15 V0.1]

Apr 18, 2020

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe was an observer of nature and laid the foundations for a phenomenological science. His collected scientific works were edited by Rudolf Steiner. Goethe’s ideas and methodologies inspired Herzeele, Preuss and Holleman. Holleman recommended that the biological transmutation phenomenon might best be studied using a Goethean scientific methodology. Unfortunately he did not…

[Old] Chapter 11: Biberian’s Marinobacter Experiments [New Ch.11 V0.2.2]

Apr 18, 2020

As if Holleman’s appearance and disappearance of potassium wasn’t strange enough, Biberian’s marine bacteria results were even more challenging. For every measured chemical element increase in one culture container, an equal but opposite decrease occurred in the other. Whilst it is always possible that errors occurred, in both cases the results and methodologies were such…

Apr 18, 2020

Vysotskii and Kornilova’s most convincing experiments and the only explanatory theory inline with mainstream physics and the ideas of cold fusion. The key concept here is that this work shows that a chemical isotope (element) transmutation may be enabled using the safe, low energies, of chemical and biological processes, without having to resort to extremely…

[Old] Chapter 8: Kervran and Other Theorists [New Ch.10 V0.2.2]

Apr 18, 2020

The French populariser of biological transmutations, his simplistic theory, and others, such as Costa de Beauregard.

Apr 17, 2020

One of those investigating such matters was the Swiss chemist Amé Pictet. His student, Werner Scherrer, in collaboration with Louis Helfer were inspired by the observations of Louis Pasteur, who had found what they suspected were high levels of argon in yeast.

Space and Counterspace – by Nick Thomas – Ch.1 – Part 5 – Parallelism

Feb 21, 2020

In his sixth to twelfth paragraphs Nick Thomas gives detailed examples based on our experience of colour, compared with a physicist’s handling of colour. I give his examples verbatim…

Space and Counterspace – by Nick Thomas – Ch.1 – Part 4 – Understanding

Feb 20, 2020

Continuing on to Nick Thomas’ fifth paragraph, here he emphasises the importance of an understanding of qualia, a word used to identify each of our experiences of, or in response to the world. The most elementary of these arise from our basic senses. They include sights, sounds, tastes and smells….
