Independent Scholar’s Evening

Implosion - and Free Energy Physics

Independent Scholar Michael Gradywill explore the theory of Implosion as an alternative form of energy and how it clashes with the academic energy generation standard based on thermodynamic physics. How entropy's Law of Conservation and Thermodynamics compares with ectropy and the Laws of Anti-Conservation and Levity as standard models of energy generation.

The long history of Implosion, anti-gravity, non-aerodynamic disc and airship vortex propulsion, and how this ties in with the non-academic work of Austrian naturalist Viktor Schauberger in the first half of the 20th Century.

Other types of free-energy machines and inventors: Tesla, Berdini, Moray, Townsend Brown, Bearden. 

How Implosion is related to a new spiritual movement:A short discourse on Thalasophy as a new philosophical premise. The hidden meaning of inspiration as a spiritual modality and meaning of life.
