AWARE: GLIMPSES OF CONSCIOUSNESS (2021, 1h 42m)
What is consciousness? Is it in all living beings? What happens when we die? Why do we seem to be hardwired for mystical experience? In these times of existential crisis, there has been an explosion of research into consciousness. After four centuries of silence, scientists are confronting the “Big Questions,” cutting a window into a realm previously held tight by philosophy and religion.
AWARE: GLIMPSES OF CONSCIOUSNESS (2021, 1h 42m)
What is consciousness? Is it in all living beings? What happens when we die? Why do we seem to be hardwired for mystical experience? In these times of existential crisis, there has been an explosion of research into consciousness. After four centuries of silence, scientists are confronting the “Big Questions,” cutting a window into a realm previously held tight by philosophy and religion.
AWARE follows six brilliant researchers approaching the mystery from radically different perspectives, opening as a science film but emerging beyond the explicable.
