In the 1970s and 1980s, American physicist John Clauser and French physicist Alain Aspect, who later won the 2022 Nobel Prize in Physics, demonstrated that entangled quantum particles coordinate their behaviour at speeds faster than light.

The essence of nonlocality seemed to transcend the spatio-temporal matrix to a sublime level beyond the scope of reason and logic. Aptly described by Einstein as a 'spooky action' at a distance. In our study using fMRI to study networks in the brain, multiple discrete locii with no demonstrable anatomical continuity, that is, no physical connection, activated synchronously in the neurobiology of cognition.
Resting-state fMRI revealed a simultaneous activation of discrete and distant areas resonating in a mystic neural symphony. A functional synergy sa.
