Persons
JAY NELSON is an author, a speaker, and an award-winning screenwriter obsessed with three questions: (i) What is consciousness? (ii) Is there an edge of experience? And (iii) How best to explain ecological awareness? After originally getting his start in acting, Jay soon found a love for psychology and explaining the human mind. But after a near-death-experience realigned all of his perceptions in 2013, he started moonlighting in neuroscience, philosophy, and evolutionary biology. He has been called a philosopher, a shaman, and a man of science. But, by his own description, he's a "moderately well-read person who wants to test the limits of human perception." He currently resides in Colorado with his wife and son. You can find him online at www.jaynelson.com.
