Bem is extremely relevant (as is Libet, and the Zeilinger backward time effects).
But it is futile to discuss this without a clue about where and how backward time effects can occur in the brain.

My paper
How quantum brain biology can rescue conscious free will
(submitted/invited to Frontiers special issue on Neurodynamics of free will)
addresses these issues. Backward time effects can act via quantum effects in
collective integration in dendrites which influence/regulate axonal firing.

Backward time effects are necessary for free will, and to avoid epiphenomenal consciousness.

Stuart

I agree with Stuart.

I absolutely agree with you on that.
We need signal nonlocality in the sense of Antony Valentini's papers for that in my opinion.

Subquantum Information and Computation
Antony Valentini
(Submitted on 11 Mar 2002 (v1), last revised 12 Apr 2002 (this version, v2))
It is argued that immense physical resources - for nonlocal communication, espionage, and exponentially-fast computation - are hidden from us by quantum noise, and that this noise is not fundamental but merely a property of an equilibrium state in which the universe happens to be at the present time. It is suggested that 'non-quantum' or nonequilibrium matter might exist today in the form of relic particles from the early universe. We describe how such matter could be detected and put to practical use. Nonequilibrium matter could be used to send instantaneous signals, to violate the uncertainty principle, to distinguish non-orthogonal quantum states without disturbing them, to eavesdrop on quantum key distribution, and to outpace quantum computation (solving NP-complete problems in polynomial time).
We need to transcend the no-signaling theorem in its several forms including no-cloning.

Mike Towler in his Cambridge Lectures cites my work on this

Of course the no-signaling theorem works for unconscious dead matter in my opinion, but not for the living conscious mind.

Actually quoting Bem does nothing for QM or psychology. I believe Henry Stapp (and if I say myself) have talked about the Bem
Experiments and published in the retrocausation conference. When we talk about psychological experiments involving sentient beings and “conscious” particles, we have to take it further as to the real implications.

David Albert's talk was a disaster. Unfortunately Yakir's final talk suffered from his lack of clear speaking of English and the Chinese pen on the whiteboard that did not work. Nobel Prize physicist David Gross and others did not get what
Yakir was trying to say. Yakir, in desperation, cited Daryl Bem's "Feeling the Future"  presponse papers! I think Yakir is correct of course as far as he goes, but he does not go far enough. Yakir pays lip service to the no-signalling theorems explained by Gisin, though he totters on the edge of Nietzsche's Abyss. More post-mortem anon. ;-)

Data from CIA SRI precognitive remote viewing of Puthoff & Targ & the Libet--> Radin --> Bierman ---> Bem data.
Of course that's signal nonlocality violating orthodox QM and Yakir is not including such an extension, though he would be open to it if one could make a lab device to show it.

Also I derived the observed dark energy density hc/ALp^2 as ADVANCED Hawking radiation back from our future event horizon where it is hc/Lp^4 and it is redshifted down to hc/ALp^2 where A is the area of the future horizon. The real Hawking thermal photons are "infinitely" redshifted down to virtual photons appearing as dark energy accelerating the universe.

It's Yakir's 80th Birthday - it's his show not mine. It looks like a very interesting meeting and I will be watching it on-line and making comments that will be recorded on video and sent around the Web via social networks like Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn etc etc.

What? No Jack Sarfatti at a Back to the Future conference?

What were they thinking?

And thank you for the heads up.
