yours truly

 

I teach contemporary physics and quantum philosophy at the Sri Aurobindo International Centre of Education in Pondicherry, India.

I received my education (in physics) from the University of Göttingen, Germany, and the Indian Institute of Science in Bangalore, India.

My chief interests are

  • the foundations of quantum mechanics,
  • the ontological implications of contemporary physics,
  • how can a material thing be conscious? how can there be consciousness of material things?
  • the place of physics in the context of a larger reality,
  • the nature of that larger reality.
I have published numerous articles on these subjects. I am also the managing editor of AntiMatters, a recently launched online journal addressing issues in science and the humanities from non-materialistic perspectives. 
 
In the interpretation he has put forth, Mohrhoff has shown us a thought provoking and original view of the way that, according to quantum mechanics, the world can be.
— Louis Marchildon, Foundations of Physics 34, 59-73 (2004)
Well, there are certainly original things to say... I just read online a few weeks ago the Pondicherry Interpretation... The Pondicherry Interpretation is startlingly original to me. So I said to myself, "my God, there’s a new way of thinking about the world!"
— Stephin Merritt in an interview with Pitchfork
