Tiffeny Todd is a physics professor and filmmaker who became obsessed with the nature of consciousness after having an out of body experience and discovering that her field had absolutely no way of explaining the experience of mind separate from body that she had. This set her on a quest to discover the theoretical basis for what had happened to her. Along the way, she discovered a wealth of literature on parapsychology that suggested it was possible for the mind to influence the outcome of quantum experiments, which led her to formulate her theory of vacuum orchestrated spin signaling, which states that the quantum vacuum is the source of agency, and that material bodies are agentic filters for that information - meaning they are the place where the agency of the vacuum is translated into real action. Our conversation starts with an exploration of parapsychology and its overlap with physics, then goes into the specifics of Todd’s theories, with a significant detour into the nature of electromagnetism, photons, electrons, what the quantum vacuum is, and why its mechanics suggest the existence of delocalized agency that lives in the void.

When not talking to brilliant people or making movies, she spends her time painting, reading, and guiding backcountry excursions. Shilo also did his PhD at Columbia studying the elastic properties of molecular water. When he's not in the film studio, he's exploring sound in music. They are both freelance professors at various universities.
