Brief Biographical Notes

I co-founded along with Neil Mortimer the academic Routledge publication, Time & Mind – The Journal of Archaeology, Consciousness and Culture (www.tandfonline.com/rtam). After 12 years, I have decided to leave the editorship at the end of 2019. I am Director of the Dragon Project Trust (www.dragonprojecttrust.org) and was a Research Affiliate with the Royal College of Art 2007-2016. I also write a bi-monthly popular archaeology column for Fortean Times magazine.

In the 1990s, I was for several years a Senior Research Scholar with the International Consciousness Research Laboratories (ICRL) group (www.icrl.org), at that time located at Princeton University, an interdisciplinary team studying mind, consciousness, from many angles – anthropology, physics, biophysics, neurophysiology, etc. My main research interests include archaeoacoustics (the study of sound at ancient sites), the ancient mind (including shamanism), ancient sites and landscapes (including shamanic landscapes), geophysical anomalies, and general consciousness studies (including lucid dreaming).

I have authored 27 mainstream books, some of them international titles. Among many others, titles have included Secrets of Ancient and Sacred Places, Re-Visioning the Earth, The Sacred Place, The Long Trip, Sacred Geography and Lucid Dreaming.

My Amazon Author page link is: www.amazon.com/Paul-Devereux/e/B001HD1M42, which includes blog articles, photos, and further information.

Along with academic papers, I’ve also published a great many articles for popular publications, including Readers Digest, Time-Life, New Scientist,Focus, Financial Times,Prediction, etc. I’ve given lectures around the UK, across North America, and in Russia, Germany, Spain, Portugal, Holland, Scandinavia, and elsewhere, addressing all kinds of audiences from general public to academic. I now intermittently still give presentations and media interviews. I originated and featured in two major television documentaries for UK’s Channel 4/ National Geographic Europe, as well as appearing in numerous popular TV programmes.

At heart, I’m a professional photographer and painter, but, unfortunately, I get scant time for my painting and creative work because of the pressures of writing, editing, lecturing, media-related work, and research, including fieldwork!
