David Lynch came to my university last night and gave a lecture (more a Q & A with a particular bent) about "Consciousness, Creativity and the Brain."

The whole thing was essentially him and a few questionable scientists touting the benefits of transcendental meditation. His guests included quantum physicist Dr. John Hagelin (whose involvement in the literally cult-funded What the Bleep Do We Know!? brings instantly into question his credibility) and a Dr. Fred Travis, apparently a director at the Maharishi University of Management.
He's intending to tour universities all over the US to create what he termed "peace-makers" in response to the government producing soldiers

The whole thing is in honor of the newly formed David Lynch Foundation for Consciousness-Based Education and World Peace (DLFCBEWP), an organization whose purpose is, one might venture to assume, self-explanatory
One of their ultimate goals is to somehow raise 7 billion dollars for various peace and meditation related activities. Lynch explained, in one of the more inspired portions, that this was roughly 3 1/2 B-10 bombers

More information can be ascertained for any interested parties here- www.davidlynchfoundation.or

I'm not really sure what to say about the whole thing. I suppose Lynch didn't really come off as much crazier in person than in his media representation, and in fact only came off as decidedly more well-intentioned
Any comments from the peanut gallery?
