We.show.experimental.evidence.for.retrocausal.signal.transfer.between.digital.systems..A.system.incorporating.two.electronic.
random.event.generators.(REGs).was.designed.and.built.to.test.for.
machine-based. retrocausal. signaling.. In. each. trial. one. REG,. the.
“controller”,.sent.a.signal.at.a.random.time.to.a.relay.shutting.off.
the.power.to.a.second.REG,.the.“subject”..The.output.of.the.REGs.
was.recorded.for.a.run.(set.of.trials)..After.the.run.was.completed.
the.data.were.analyzed,.showing.any.deviation.from.randomness.of.
the.subject-REG.output.as.a.function.of.time..
Statistically. significant. changes. in. the. subject-REG. output.
occurred.before.its.power.was.cut..As.a.control,.the.controller-REG.
sent.the.usual.power.shut.off.signals.to.the.relay,.but.the.relay.was.
deactivated.before.those.trials..In.the.control.runs,.the.subject-REG.
output. did. not. exhibit. a. significant. deviation. from. randomness.
before.the.dummy.shut.off.signals.sent.from.the.controller-REG.
The.scientific.literature.includes.many.reports.of.retrocausation.and.precognition.in.living.systems..We.show.how.the.effects.
that. we. observe. in. our. machine-based. system. are. linked. to. the.
effects.of.intention.and.consciousness.

Advanced.meditators.occasionally.report.states.of.awareness.
that.seem.to.transcend.the.usual.boundaries.of.the.subjective.present..To.investigate.this.phenomenon.in.eight.experienced.meditators.
and. eight. matched. controls,. 32. channels. of. EEG. were. measured.
prior. to. exposure. to. unpredictable. light. and. sound. stimuli..
The.postulate.was.that.if.some.aspect.of.awareness.extends.beyond.
the.present.moment,.then.pre-stimulus.electrocortical.signals.would.
differ.depending.on.stimuli.that.were.about.to.be.selected.by.a.truly.
random.process,.and.that.such.differences.would.be.more.apparent.
in.meditators.than.in.non-meditators..Each.of.the.32.EEG.channels.
was.baseline-adjusted.by.the.electrical.potential.averaged.between.
2. to. 1. second. pre-stimulus,. then. for. each. channel. the. average.
potential.was.determined.from.1.second.pre-stimulus.to.stimulus.
onset.. Resulting. means. across. subjects. in. each. group. were. compared.by.stimulus.type.using.randomized.permutation.procedures.
and.adjusted.for.false.discovery.rate..Within.the.control.group,.no.
EEG.channels.showed.pre-stimulus.differences.between.light.vs..
sound.stimulus.conditions,.but.within.the.meditator.group.5.of.32.
channels.resulted.in.significant.differences..Comparisons.between.
control.and.meditator.groups.showed.pre-stimulus.differences.prior.
