David Lynch

---

The films of David Lynch (Eraserhead, The Elephant Man, Dune, Blue Velvet, Wild at Heart, Twin Peaks, Lost Highway, The Straight Story, Mulholland Drive) have become some of the most beloved, talked-about and affecting films of the past 30 years, with their incomparable style putting him into a canon of world cinema’s greats. Even critics cannot deny the blasts of creativity at play in his films. As part of a national tour of top universities, Lynch spoke about consciousness and the creative process in filmmaking and answered audience questions about his films and life. Joining him was Dr. John Hagelin, the Harvard-trained quantum physicist featured in the recent film What the #$*! Do We Know!?, who discussed meditation and quantum physics, and Dr. Alarik Arenander, a UCLA-trained brain researcher who has led groundbreaking studies on the neurobiology of brain development since 1980, who discussed the effects of various types of meditation on the brain, specifically the latest research on Transcendental Meditation® and the brain.
