We have updated our website and introduced some major new features.  Members can now chat in the new Membership Forum; upload remote viewing events, classes, and meetups; and download more IRVA conference videos.  Focal Point is now automated, and students can work over 200 practice targets with more being added each month.  We have a new book store featuring Amazon’s top 100 remote viewing titles. Account management is now integrated in the site.  And signing up for a free trial membership for students has never been easier.  For visitors that are non-English speaking, the website is now translatable in dozens of languages at the click of a button.

The 2021 Remote Viewing Conference, sponsored by the International Remote Viewing Association (IRVA), seeks to provide a forum for the presentation and discussion of remote viewing. In particular, but not exclusively, our aim is to enrich the issues and contribute to the understanding of remote viewing with empirical research and an encompassing perspective.

Originally trained in the United Kingdom as a registered nurse and social worker, Dr.Angela Thompson Smith worked in medical research in New Jersey while volunteering with the Psychophysical Research Laboratories (PRL).  She was eventually hired by the Princeton Engineering Anomalies Research (PEAR) Laboratory and served for five years as a member . . .

Join us as we celebrate our 20 year anniversary and honor our founders.

July 18 & 19th, 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. Pacific Time | $100
