When confronting the unexplained, it is helpful to consider it from
many different points of view. In an essay published in 2004,
entitled "Sensors, Filters, and the Source of Reality," Robert Jahn
and Brenda Dunne of Princeton University's PEAR laboratory proposed
that consciousness constructs its reality by ordering the
information it derives from the external world through an array of
physiological, psychological, and cultural filters. This thesis has
now been considered by nineteen distinguished scholars who here
present their commentaries from a broad spectrum of professional
and personal perspectives. Drawn from such diverse backgrounds as
art, Buddhism, evolutionary biology, fantasy, out-of-body
experiences, philosophy, physics, psychology, semiotics, and
systems engineering, among others, these contributions offer an
assortment of unique and fascinating glimpses of how our
experiences and their styles of representation are reflected
through these filters of consciousness.
