Journal of Nonlocality

About the Journal

The Journal of Nonlocality was originally set up to address an experimental and conceptual impasse in understanding the nature of nonlocality and observer effects in quantum mechanics. In partnership with ICRL and the  Mind-Matter Mapping Project, we aimed to create a research venue where cutting-edge experimental tools in physics, biology and parapsychology could be combined to design more revealing protocols; to bypass the experimental difficulties identified by Wheeler and  Bell; and to  cast new light on the role that these effects play in genetic regulatory systems, placebo, remote perception and retrocausality.

The Journal of Nonlocality started out as an open access, non-peer reviewed publication in 2002 under the title Journal of Nonlocality and Remote Mental Interactions (JNLRMI).  All JNLRMI volumes are fully accessible on the Mind-Matter Mapping Project platform or by following the links below.

In 2012 we adopted the title Journal of Nonlocality for the new peer-reviewed publication, building on the research directions outlined by the now-retired JNLRMI, but with a focus on experimental design and empirical results. While some of the original editorial board members remained, a sustained effort was made to broaden the expertise area and reach out to the mainstream research community in related fields such as biophysics and the foundations of quantum mechanics.

After a long hiatus (2018-2025), we decided that it was time to re-launch the JNL in order to address these questions from the perspective of the imminent AGI inflection point - specifically trying to explore the implications of artificial superintelligence,  consciousness as a substrate-agnostic, fractal architecture,  AI alignment strategies, the coming brain-machine interface revolution, and the way this will fundamentally redefine how we think about evolution and self versus social organism.
