Ignite! Sebastopol presentation
If you haven't seen the presentation I made on Synchronicity at the last Ignite Sebastopol, check it out. I just rewatched it and it's pretty funny!!
http://www.youtube.com/user/IgniteSebastopol#p/a/u/1/zOorgULvAJ0 New revision of my first physics publication
Hi all, I have completed (for now) the paper you may have read now a few times. It's aimed as a science paper, but it's somewhat comprehensible to lay people, so check it out if you like. The point is to create a coherent formalism/foundation that can eventually be used to describe synchronicity. Also, last weekend Rev Barbara and I put together our first workshop "When Someone MUST Win, Everyone Loses". It was held in Auburn to a group of 15. If you were there, thanks for joining us! I had a …
New workshop with Rev. Barbara Leger
I have joined up with Barbara, an experienced an inspired Science of Mind minister, to create this workshop "When Some MUST Win, Everybody Loses." We use science of mind and my own physics work to explore these ideas, along with lots of music.
Visit my calendar for more info, or here: http://www.ggcsl.org/events/calendar.htm Can I affect others lives negatively through synchronicity?
A colleague asked the question: "Can I really be held responsible for affecting other people's past? Can I cause them harm?" I thought about this. My answer is this: Spirit uses us. There is a vast catalog of possible futures for each of us (I call it the Library of Heaven), and when you take actions looking for something, the Law of synchronicity says that an opportunity must come to you, and Spirit uses the opportunity to also bring something to someone on the other end. The person you meet …
Tao for Today
"When one's attainments appear incomplete, one goes on working forever. When one's possessions are inadequate, one goes on acquiring forever." I fall in that category of person who always has to keep attaining. It is difficult to feel satisfied with the state of things. There is always another song to record, another harmony to add, another paper to write. Lately with the various successes I've had, there is ever more opportunity for overwork. Yet there is another force in my life, one that has …
When the water starts rising...
My newest song expresses it perfectly:
"Gonna keep my head up Gonna keep my head up When the water starts rising Gonna keep my head up" I played music at Petaluma Community for Spiritual Living yesterday. Proud to say that they looooved it. I felt honored, respected and appreciated. These are all things I've striven for for a long time. When they happen, we've got to be ready to accept and receive them! It's easy for me to be unconscious and keep on wishing for respect and sucess, without seeing it in the form it's taking. Isn't that the way it so often is? The form in which our dreams are being answered isn't what we envisioned, and so it's not good enough. Well, not for me, any more. I accept and receive this, and am healed of lack! Positive Music Awards
Just returned from Orlando Florida where I participated in the Positive Music Awards ( www.empowerma.org ). I had a fabulous time, due to all the wonderful people involved in the genre/movement towards positive music. It is so important to remember that life's experiences are always a wild ride, and there are always disappointments. Yet I felt a deep sense this week that everything is right and going well, as it needs to go. It is amazing to feel that feeling even in light of evidence to the contrary. …
The shyness of the soul
I played at Golden Gate CSL with Rev. Karyl and Bodhi today. I love their community. It's very similar to style as Global Heart, where I have been introduced to Science of Mind, a free open laughing atmosphere filled with good vibes and excitement. I've spent the last few years developing a strong stage presence, being bolder and bigger, in order to command the stage and give a good 'show'. Yet today Karyl talked about her love for the 'shynss of the soul', that quiet, introspective, secretive self. I …
The tao and synchronicity
Chap 14: Stephen Mitchell
"Look, and it can't be seen Listen and it can't be heard Reach and it can't be grasped ... You can't know it, but you can be it, at ease in your own life" The physical postulate my theory relies on is "Anything that is unobserved by a given observer is in an undetermined state." The information realm, composed of all the possible states of the unseen world, exists beyond our perception. Look, and it becomes singular, determined. We can experience only one reality at a time. Yet it's true nature at all other times is plural. Reach, and you grasp the singularness, the real thing. Yet you can never grasp the plural potentiality. Some thoughts on the science behind the Science of Mind
Pg 46 of "The Science of Mind" says "We are surrounded by an Infinite Possibility. .. In expressing itself through us, It becomes more fully conscious of its own being." One of my two major premises on the physical nature of reality is that it is only sensible to look at the world through one, and only one, perspective at a time. In Consistent quantum theory, this is called the single framework rule. The physical world can only be sensibly described in this way. Multiple perspectives …
Article in New Thought magazine
I just posted the article from New Thought Magazine here...check it out:
http://www.scribd.com/doc/22719702/New-Thought-Magazine-How-I-Use-Physics-to-Pray-Sky-Nelson Understand the science of synchronicity in 5 min, from Homer Simpson
Hi everyone, Last Wednesday I presented a 5-minute talk at Ignite! Sebastopol, a very cool event. Here is my presentation: You can try understanding the science of synchronicity in 5 min. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zOorgULvAJ0
Ignite! presentation on Wednesday
I will be presenting my theory on synchronicity, the short and sweet version, in exactly five minutes, at this Wednesday's Ignite! event in Sebastopol.
http://ignite.oreilly.com/2009/09/ignite-sebastopol-2.html unfortunately I think it sold out, but if you know how to use synchronicity, I'm sure that will get you in! just finished the "science and Non-Duality conference". supercool! http://www.scienceandnonduality.com/ Meeting Michael Beckwith, part 2
You will remember a few months back that I caught up with Dr Beckwith at the Sonoma County fair and gave him an article on Synchronicity I had written? Tonight I met him again, and this time I had my full paper complete. In the middle of the crowd at his event I put my hand on his shoulder and said "I have a paper on the physics of synchronicity I would very much like you to read." Following his own advice, I spoke my word with authority, and a smile... (besides, I am out of patience with pussyfooting...I have a 3 month old baby to care for!)
He smiled, handed it to his assistant, and said thank you. Then he made a point to say "and I WILL actually read it." Thanks Michael, enjoy. May you find it helpful in the ways that I think it can be helpful. Synchronicity works every time. Yet it takes time, patience, and always an element of surprise and creativity.

Howdy all, you can find a new live performance of I'm Going to Live in Love on this site here.
A recorded version will likely be available on iTunes before too long. Catching Up
OK, I've been lame, I haven't kept my promise to write consistently. however, I have been working on things that are exciting and intended to keep my web page interesting in the long run!
For instance, I had an article published as the feature in the fall issue of "New Thought Magazine". The article is titled "How I Use Physics to Pray", connecting my theory on the science of synchronicity with my recent studies of the Science of Mind philosophy. I had submitted the transcript, and not heard anything back. I was patient, but losing patience. suddenly I get a call one morning telling me they had published the paper. Little did I know it was the featured article! I will post more info when I can. Coming soon, more new music, as well as some very interesting new physics. Fred Alan Wolf
First the bad news, then the good news (really, it’s all good news): the bad news is, some people in my country really do act crazy. unfortunately, it affects all of us. when I was driving home tonight, I stopped to get gas at the nearest place I could. what is this?! there are 10 cars in line waiting for each pump? why?? I go further down the street, barely one block, and there is an empty Shell gas station. the price difference between the two stations? take a second and guess. well here it is: …
Morning Pages
I am reading “ The Artist’s Way ” by Julia Cameron, and have begun doing a daily assignment, called the morning pages. I write stream of consciousness for three long pages with no stopping. It has opened up the valve on my thoughts with synchronicity, so I’m now going to make a point of sharing these thoughts as they develop here. The third paper in my series is directly on synchronicity itself…but it will not be completed for quite some time. Instead, I will begin writing …
Synchronicity Series: The Meaning Cycle
The Meaning Cycle Watching my daughter grow over the last two months since her birth has given a clear example of what I call the difference between objective meaning and subjective meaning. Subjective meaning is what most people think of when we talk about meaning. It is a psychological response to a situation. It is based on our own subjective point of view and state of consciousness. Objective meaning on the other hand, is something that I propose actually has physical reality to it, and can be …
Synchronicity: Huey Lewis and the News
Last night I went to see Huey Lewis play in Santa Rosa, one of my favorite childhood bands. I went without a ticket, because they were sold out. As I was walking by one of the doors casually, I noticed one of the volunteer ushers was a friend of mine who had appeared in my music video for the Obama election. I was so happy to see her, and we started catching up. At the end of the conversation I just said goodbye and continued past her with confidence into the concert. The other ushers assumed my ticket …
Meaning Making and Synchronicity
Hi all, I just posted these thoughts on the discussion board, thought I'd put them here too for today's blog. Meaning - The act of perceiving a relationship between two previously unrelated objects is done through the creation of a sense of 'self' who creates meaning about the specific relationship. The meaning [I]is[/I] the relationship that a person forms with the situation. 'Meaning' and 'relationship' are synonymous here. The person must have a sense of 'I' in order to create meaning and perceive a …
I have enough…
Someone prominent wrote today “since when is making a profit the only reason to do anything in america?” I am so glad to hear those words. It has me reflecting on my own situation, and my feeling that we don’t need more, we simply need to be smart. From 2006-2008 I was a fulltime musician, making a meager leaving, but it was enough, and I was very happy. When the stock market was tanking, we paid attention and carefully pulled what we had out just in time. Shortly thereafter I took a …
Message from Obama on healthcare
http://my.barackobama.com/hcdeclare "Last week, Republican Senator Jim DeMint made it pretty clear why the opponents of health care reform are fighting so hard. As he told a special interest attack group, "If we're able to stop Obama on this, it will be his Waterloo. It will break him." Here's how the President responded: Think about that. This isn't about me. This isn't about politics. This is about a health care system that is breaking America's families, breaking America's businesses …
What you can do for improving healthcare – This Week!
Obama’s grassroots team is giving us the opportunity to make phone calls or knock on doors, in order to remind people that this is their chance to let their legislators know how they feel about improving healthcare. http://my.barackobama.com/page/content/hceventattend?zip=95405 You can make calls straight from your home or cell phone, using the link above. This is the final week before the vote! It’s a lot of fun, because most everyone I’ve talked to is really happy to hear from me, …
Knock, and a door will…
My view of this age-old phrase, through the lens of synchronicity, is that when we knock (in the proverbial sense), a door will open, but it is seldom the same door we knocked upon. We tend to get caught up in the literal meaning of the saying, that every door we knock upon will somehow open, “by the grace of god”. But it is the meaning of what we are seeking that is in fact heard by the synchronistic universe, and it is the meaning that it responds to. Therefore, when we knock on a door in …
