For the Rationally Inclined...

This project involves detecting patterns in aspects of collective consciousness and identifying the news themes or market changes likely to be associated with such patterns,

The primary target audience of this project is “Orange” or “Modern” in terms of Spiral Dynamics levels of consciousness.  This level tends to value data, statistical models, information that gives an edge, and monetary gain.  This project rewards Orange level consumers with what they value in exchange for exposure to glimpses of levels beyond Orange (e.g. post-modern or “Green” through rational-systemic or “Yellow).  This has the effect of encouraging consciousness evolution through exposure to paradigms beyond the current level for many who would be attracted to this type of information.

The basic source data comes from the relative intensity of four primary archetypal metaphysical Qualities observed in top internet search trends.  Applying the idea of “thoughts held in mind produce after their kind,” it’s been statistically verified that the quality focused on tends to land about three time periods later.  So, in this case we are looking at the metaphysical waves on approach from three weeks prior and their anticipated landing dates.

This data is fed into various algorithms to produce useful information.  For example, the anticipated presidential favorability is shown below:

The stock market has been similarly tracked and forecasted as shown below:
