Become Part of ICRL...
By becoming an ICRL member you are opening the door to many opportunities. The baseline membership, ICRL Friend, will provide more access on our website, including the ability to bookmark pages. If you are in a position to support ICRL financially, we hope you will choose the ICRL Family membership, which you can get on a month-by-month basis or on a yearly basis for a discount. At that level, you have unlimited access to our archives, including recordings of ICRL events as well as papers and articles, and receive reduced pricing on essentially everything.
ICRL Friend
(Perpetual)
Registering as an ICRL Friend will give you increased access to content on our website, as well as the ability to mark favorite pages for quick access.
ICRL Family
(Monthly)
Becoming a member of the ICRL Family is an excellent way to help support ICRL and our mission. It also gives benefits in return. Above and beyond all benefits at the ICRL Friend level, registering as part of the ICRL Family will give you special access to Family-only content and perks such as archival recordings, discounts to our paid events, and the ability to download our research papers. You will receive discounted prices for everything we offer, and there are many more perks in the works!
ICRL Family
(Yearly)
Joining the ICRL Family on a yearly basis will save us both a bit of money – you have a lower rate, and we pay fewer credit card fees.
On the registration page there are some questions about your resonant elements, animals, plants, etc. These are optional, but we hope you will share some information with us to help us understand you a little better, and to start customizing your web experience as well. There are no wrong answers to the questions, and no wrong way to interpret what “resonant” means. Just follow your instincts in answering and don’t overthink it (and if you change your mind, you can always change your answers on your account page).
Why do we have membership fees? ICRL is dedicated to providing our resources as affordably as absolutely possible, and in an ideal world we wouldn’t need to collect money at all. Alas, that’s not our world. Even just a website is more expensive to maintain than one might think, and that’s just the beginning.
That said, we want to ensure that ICRL is available to anyone who truly wants access. If you are a student, or are perhaps some experiencing financial hardship, and our fees are a burden to you, please get in touch (link on top right of every page) and we will adjust them down as far as needed to make it work for you.

Vasileios Basios is a physicist, conducting interdisciplinary research on the foundations of complexity science and nonlinear systems, self-organization and complex matter. During his formative years, he was tutored by Ilya Prigogine, at ULB where he received his PhD, and by Emilios Bouratinos on meditation and philosophy. He is currently interested in the complex interface between action and information. Other interests include the history of ideas in science and their role in the transformation of science beyond the prevailing naïve, materialistic, mechanistic-reductionist world-view. With others from PEAR, he initiated the Mind-Matter-Mapping Project and has since published several essays for ICRL. He is also a member of the Board of the Scientific and Medical Network and the Steering Team of the Galileo Commission. Vasileios is inspired by the prospect of introducing self-reflection into the practice and understanding of science, and the emergence of a Self-Reflexive Science of Consciousness.

The largest dataset collected at PEAR used Random Event Generators, or REGs. These devices were essentially electronic coin flippers that produced a series of 1’s and 0’s; operators were instructed to influence the machines to produce more 1’s than 0’s or vice versa.
