Primary Perception: Biocommunication with Plants, Living Foods and Human Cells - Part I Cleve Backster Biocommunication cannot fit into the normal mode of the"scientific method" because of the need for spontaneity. Cleve presents examples of nonlocal, instantaneous communication between human donors and their white cells many miles apart. In the discussion period, Cleve shares the implications and the future of possible new projects in biocommunication research. Goal: To understand interconnectedness from a scientific point of view. Learning objectives: Explore the difference between spontaneity vs. repeatability Understand the importance and role of intentionality Learn from an overview of the future of biocommunication research. Presenter Bio: In addition to having been an observer of human psychophysiology tracings, Cleve Backster has conducted extensive research related to observed electrical responses in plant life and at a cellular level in other living organisms. His research into what has been called “The Backster Effect” has attracted world wide attention. His work was featured in the bestselling book, The Secret Life of Plants by Tompkins and Bird, and another book The Secret Life of Your Cells by Robert Stone. Cleve is currently teaching at the Backster School of Lie Detection, was formerly an Interrogation Specialist with the CIA, and was Chairman of the Research and Instrument Committee of the Academy for Scientific Interrogation. He has authored a book on his biocommunication research called Primary Perception: Biocommunication with Plants, Living Foods, Bacteria and Human Cells. www.primaryperception.com

Orgone Accumulator Therapy of Severe Diseases and Injuries - Part I James DeMeo, PhD Dr. Wilhelm Reich's biomedical work was ended in the USA in the 1950s, following Food and Drug Administration raids upon his facility, which resulted in a court-ordered book-burning and Reich's death in prison. Since then, few American physicians have been willing to use the accumulator to treat their patients. In Germany, however, the accumulator has been openly used for years, with amazing positive results. James has met with many of these physicians and gives a report on what's happening in Europe. Double-blind, controlled studies of the orgone accumulator will be discussed and an orgone energy blanket and orgone field meter will be demonstrated. Slides will be shown of the larger orgone accumulators, along with the results on human subjects. Presenter Bio: James has been engaged in the scientific investigation of Wilhelm Reich’s work since the early 1970s and is Director of the Orgone Biophysical Research Lab, which he founded in 1978. He studied Environmental Science and received his doctorate in Geography. He undertook the first scientific studies within a classical academic institution to systematically evaluate Reich’s social and biophysical discoveries. James has undertaken many cloudbusting, drought-abatement and desert-greening projects in the United States, Europe and Africa, verifying Reich’s original findings and pioneering new techniques. He has published numerous articles on the issues of energy resources, health, cultural history, environmental problems and experimental orgone research. James is the author of The Orgone Accumulator Handbook and Saharasia. He is also editor of Pulse of the Planet Journal. www.orgonelab.org
