I have referenced Dr. Federico Faggin’s spontaneous mystical experience of Reality before, but this is a new interview.
Dr. Faggin was a firm, traditional, scientific materialist before the MER struck him unannounced, unexpected and unrequested.
Here he reveals his experience with more background and stunning clarity. He still seems to think science will play a part in fully understanding consciousness/Reality.
(His experience had the same features as mine, though mine were not dramatic).
Dr. Federico Faggin is an Italian physicist, engineer, inventor and entrepreneur. He is best known for designing the first commercial microprocessor, the Intel 4004.

Fascinating.

It’s nice stuff but let’s remember all religions seemed to have started by an epiphany of the sort FF had in 1990. Whether there is any real science behind his beliefs will perhaps be revealed by his book which I intend to buy

Your view/review of Dr Faggin’s book would be much welcomed, Anthony.

Yes, I was very much thinking along those lines Keith. I enjoyed the interview and like what I see of the guy. I looked him up on Wikipedia but couldn’t follow the science bit, so I hope the book is rather more explicit. I love his views, anyway.
