Initiatives

Three programs, one question.

Each initiative approaches the hard problem of consciousness from a different angle: experimental, communal, and methodological. Each one feeds back into the others.

How we operate

Open-minded. Startup mentality. Ship fast, falsify fast.

We don't run our own lab. We find the people already doing the right work, and we amplify them. No stone unturned. No question off-limits. The bottleneck in consciousness research is rarely the science; it's the connective tissue.

Identify

Find like-minded researchers worldwide and reach out directly.

Promote

Amplify their work through interviews, social, podcasts, events.

Fundraise

Help them sharpen pitches, apply for grants, find aligned donors.

Build tools

Develop the apps, AI, funnels, and protocols the field is missing.

Connect dots

Spot opportunities others can't see, and help them manifest.

Initiative 01

Where Physics Meets Consciousness.

We collaborate with quantum physicists, optics-lab experimentalists, and philosophers of mind to push our understanding of the relationship between consciousness, agency, and information. Theory building, grounded in experiment.

Testing Reality
Pedagogy

Testing Reality

A pedagogical journey through the heart of the quantum mystery, seven experiments, from simple polarisers to the double-slit quantum eraser. Built on Tom Campbell's Kickstarter to test the simulation hypothesis.

Quanta to Qualia
Convening + research

Quanta to Qualia

A 5-day workshop at the intersection of quantum mechanics and consciousness (August 11–15, 2026 · Montréal & Eastman, Quebec), plus an ongoing two-year NSERC Alliance Quantum research program at ÉTS, three axes rebuilding the bridge between the quantum formalism and the classical world we experience.

Quantum Idealism
Speculative theory

Quantum Idealism

Our current best bet for a unifying framework, treating consciousness as fundamental and reality as a quantum information system. Synthesises ideas from Faggin, Kastrup, Campbell, Penrose, Hameroff and others. Designed to be falsifiable.

Initiative 02

Project PlayerMind.

Video games as labs. An open research platform running pre-registered, replicable quantum-randomness experiments inside the games people already love.

Consciousness research needs data. The core questions are clear: can consciousness manifest reality (micro-PK) or sense the future (precognition)? A century of small-N lab studies has not been enough to find out.

PlayerMind brings the question to where the players are. Once the platform is live, any researcher will be able to design and launch their own study on it, with the data collection, randomness, and audit trail provided. Every study is pre-registered and 100% replicable by anyone.

We are actively fundraising to build it.

Our 2029 goal

Definitive falsification of micro-PK and precognition, or empirical evidence strong enough that ignoring it is no longer an option.

Initiative 03

The MindSwan Prize.

Can you see without your eyes? A $100,000 USD skill-based contest administered by CUSAC and sponsored by the Point Reyes Reality Investigation Center (PRRIC). One clean, binary demonstration to settle a centuries-old question.

MindSwan initiative

For centuries, people have reported extraordinary perceptual abilities: remote viewing, telepathy, precognition, and the most testable of them all, mindsight, the experience of seeing without using the eyes.

To win the Prize, a contestant must correctly identify four consecutive 3-digit target numbers, generated at random, within 20 minutes, while wearing an extended mask that blocks all light. The odds of passing by chance are vanishingly small; the outcome is binary. The prize funds are already secured in a dedicated account.

Pre-registration is open, and Official Contest Rules will be published September 1, 2026.
