Sperry originated and, since 1990, has been Executive Director of The
Human Connection Project, a scientific and educational research
project designed to reinforce the underlying sense that human beings
are innately psychologically and physiologically linked,
even when in widely separate geographic locations. This project has
employed a series of six preliminary pilot studies in preparation for
an international multiple laboratory experiment. The purpose of the
project is to offer an alternative to the current scientific worldview
in whichhumans are considered physically isolated beings.

Sperry has given invited presentations on human interconnectedness and
the Human Connection Project at the United Nations, World Business
Academy, Duke University, University of Connecticut and the
Association for Research and Enlightenment in Virginia Beach. His
articles have appeared in Frontier Perspectives, Alternative Therapies
and Exceptional Human Experience. He is co-authoring a book titled,
The Ecstasy of Unity.

Before beginning the Human Connection Project with the help of the
Mind Science Foundation in San Antonio, Texas in 1988 and becoming an
Adjunct Research Associate from 1990 to 1992, he facilitated group
experiences both public and private, enhancing people's ability to
become more identified with shared sensory, emotional and mental
awareness. He then continued to develop techniques to help groups
achieve and maintain states of collective consciousness which hundreds
of people in the U.S. and Europe have now experienced. Current
weekend workshops, five-day intensives and facilitator trainings are
presented through the Northern Arizona offices of the Human Connection
Institute, which he founded in 1996.

His interest in consciousness-for-its-own-sake began with a childhood
near death experience. Knowing that everyone and everything are
connected led him into contemplative and meditative visioning,
including healing and teaching work. He was formally educated at
Antioch College, Maryland Art Institute, New School for Social
Research, State University of New York and City College, San
Francisco.

He is also a visual artist having painted and shown his work in many
parts of the world, including a period of four years in Australia and
a year in South America. His childhood home and, for many years his
workplace, is now the Julian Alden Weir National Historic Site
dedicated to American Art and Artists located in Wilton and
Ridgefield, Connecticut. He has created, shown and sold his art work
for over thirty years. His paintings are now owned by both public and
private collections internationally.
