The Archetypal Resonance Lab is an independent research laboratory based in Costa Rica, dedicated to exploring the frontiers of symbolic cognition, transpersonal consciousness, and archetypal feedback. Founded by Eric Dowling, Ph.D., the lab integrates systems-level thinking, field-based experimentation, and both meditative and altered-state methodologies to investigate how symbolic structures interface with mind, perception, and nonlocal phenomena.
Located in Costa Rica, the lab benefits from a flexible legal and cultural environment that supports independent research and consciousness studies. Cognition Matrix Laboratories is not a therapeutic clinic or retreat center, but a research-focused initiative engaged in publishing, experimentation, and theoretical development within the broader field of transpersonal psychology and symbolic science.
Eric M. Dowling, Ph.D, is an ex-associate-professor of Electrical Engineering, and inventor with over 100 U.S. patents and 40+ peer-reviewed publications, including foundational work in optical feedback systems and adaptive subspace tracking algorithms. Contributions include the development of Z-transform domain models and layer-peeling algorithms for the design of optical infinite impulse response (IIR) lattice filters. These technologies are now foundational to wavelength-selective dense wavelength division multiplexing (DWDM) systems.
His patents are used millions to billions of times per day in cellular devices worldwide, and DWDM filters based on his early work from 1994 design principles for lightwave lattice filters collectively perform over 6×10²³ resonant-feedback optical filtering operations per second around the globe.
As a member of the Association for Transpersonal Psychology, his current research applies mathematics and systems engineering principles to the study of consciousness, altered states, and archetypal resonance. By defining an archetypal-symbolic frequency domain, psycho-resonator circuits involving human consciousness can be constructed to activate archetypal and transpersonal intelligences that normally remain in the unconscious. These new technologies and methods provide an archetypal-psychological and spiritual biofeedback model for interacting with afterlife spirits, transpersonal intelligences, and the psychoid field.
