SUMMARY:Beyond Bohm 2025\, Part 2
DESCRIPTION:August 2 – 24\, 20258 two-hour sessions \n\n\n\n9:00am PDT | 12:00pm EDT | 5:00pm BST  |  6:00pm CEST \n\n\n\nAll sessions are live\, and include Q & A\, and all participants will receive the RECORDING.Each session: Full Price €15\, Member’s Discount €13.50Series tickets available. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBeyond Bohm 2025\, Part 2\n\n\n\nFollowing an illuminating introduction to Bohm’s revolutionary physics\, we embark on an exploration of potentiality and its intricate relationship with actuality\, drawing upon the insights of both Bohm and Charles Burton Martin; we will delve deeply into the terrain of panpsychism\, examining consciousness not as a mere biological phenomenon confined to humans and animals\, but as a fundamental architectural principle woven into the very fabric of physical reality; we investigate whether Bohmian quantum theory might inspire new forms of psycho-physical laws; we will examine the conception of ‘strict monism’ and its relation to Bohm’s ideas of undivided wholeness; we will illuminate Bohm’s distinctive philosophy of science as manifested in his causal interpretation of quantum theory; we will consider the implications of quantum materials on humanity’s evolutionary trajectory\, examining how these emerging technologies may fundamentally reshape our civilizational future; and we provide an introduction to a new worldview: the Dynamic Universe—a proposal that provides a new way of understanding relativistic phenomena. \n\n\n\nEvery session will have openings for question / answer and discussion with presenters. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nProgram of Event\n\n\n\nSaturday August 2Introduction to Bohm’s PhysicsJonathan AlldaySunday August 3Potentialities in Nature and the Nature of Potentialities: David Bohm’s 1951Quantum Theory and C.

The session structure may vary from speaker to speaker\, but in general participants will have the opportunity to ask questions of the presenter and in some cases there will be breakaway discussion groups.

SUMMARY:Beyond Bohm 2025\, Part 2 - Introduction to Bohm’s physics
DESCRIPTION:Introduction to Bohm’s physics \n\n\n\nwith Jonathan Allday \n\n\n\nSaturday August 29:00am PDT  | 12:00pm EDT  | 5:00pm BST  |  6:00pm CEST 2-hour session. \n\n\n\nThe session is live and you will be sent the RECORDING. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDavid Bohm’s work in physics spanned a range of areas and interests\, but he always came back to the foundations of quantum theory. \n\n\n\nWhile his 1952 hidden variables papers were not really about hidden variables (it’s in quotes in the paper tiles)\, they did start a direction of travel that he periodically revisited. The quantum potential offered a new way of illustrating the profound differences between classical and quantum physics as well as a means of exploring Bohm’s vision of underlying wholeness. \n\n\n\nThe 1952 papers also profoundly influenced John Bell\, who took up Bohm’s reworking of one of Einstein’s thought experiments to explore the nature of entanglement experimentally. That line led to the 2022 Nobel Prize. Without going into too much technical detail\, I will explain the underlying physics of the 1952 papers\, Bell’s theorem and its relationship to locality and entanglement\, and will work up to the advances Basil Hiley was making right up to his death. \n\n\n\nWe might even mention the Aharonov-Bohm effect and how weird that is… \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nJonathan Allday was born in Liverpool in 1960. He did his first degree in Natural Sciences at Cambridge in 1982 and then returned to Liverpool to complete a PhD in elementary particle physics. As part of this\, he was fortunate to spend some time working at the European particle physics centre\, CERN\, in Geneva. \n\n\n\nAlso\, during that time he was co-opted onto a working party looking at the teaching of particle physics in schools and universities. The upshot was a new syllabus in particle physics and cosmology to be added to UK A-level (16-18) physics qualifications. The first questions were set in 1992. \n\n\n\nOn the back of the work on this syllabus\, Jonathan wrote his first book Quarks\, Leptons and the Big Bang\, which was published in 1998 and is about to enter its fourth edition. Jonathan has also collaborated on a couple of textbooks and written his own books on Quantum Theory\, General Relativity and the Apollo moon missions. \n\n\n\nProfessionally\, Jonathan worked as a physics teacher for 30 years in a variety of independent day and boarding schools in the UK. He was a head of physics\, a head of science and latterly an academic deputy head. He retired in 2020 and now runs a consulting company providing training and educational advice for schools. \n\n\n\nJonathan is married to Carolyn\, and they have three sons all of whom are far better at sport than he was. Carolyn was a GB swimmer\, which explains how come the boys can do sport. Jonathan and Carolyn live in a hamlet not far from Worcester in the UK. When not writing or consulting\, Jonathan enjoys watching cricket\, James Bond movies and Formula 1 races.
