Institute for the Scientific Study of Consciousness
The Archives of Scientists' Transcendent Experiences (TASTE) is supported by the Institute for the Scientific Study of Consciousness (ISSC).
I founded ISSC as a convenient vehicle to receive small grants and donations for cutting edge research on consciousness and as a way to bypass the bureaucracy of the University of California: after losing too much experimental data when apparatus needed repair and weeks went by as the purchasing department requested bids on $20 repair parts, I had endured all the bureaucracy I could stand!
ISSC is a non-profit California corporation, tax exempt under the 509(a)(1) and 170(b)(1)(A)(vi) sections of the Internal Revenue Service code.
The operation of TASTE is supported largely by my own efforts, but generous support has also been received from: Fetzer Institute, Institute of Noetic Sciences and Edwin Joseph.
If you find the TASTE project worthwhile and know of institutions or people who might make contributions to support and expand TASTE, I will be pleased to hear from you. The small size (a corner of my desk) and flexibility of ISSC means that even small (tax deductible) donations of a hundred dollars or less are easy to accept and highly appreciated!
