Methods for investigating mind-matter interactions were proposed by Sir Francis Bacon at the very origins of empiricism, over three centuries ago. Systematic scientific studies began about a century ago. In this talk, I will briefly review the modern experimental literature on “psychokinetic” effects, then I will present in more detail experiments I have conducted involving random physical systems based on quantum indeterminacy, photon polarization, scattering, and entanglement, the molecular structure of water, growth of plants and stem cells in vitro, and influences on human mood and physiology. I will also discuss the epistemological challenges in conducting these kinds of studies, as well as the practical and philosophical implications of mind-matter entanglements.
