Illusion of the Self - Dr. Susan Blackmore, University of Plymouth
Dr. Susan Blackmore is a Visiting Professor at the University of Plymouth with an interest in psychology, consciousness, memes, and anomalous experiences. We speak with her about the arc of her research into out of body experiences. We talk with her about her fruitless search for robust evidence of astral phenomena, her transition into psychological research, and how she squares the illusory self uncovered during meditation with the material evidence of consciousness.
