Shroud of Turin researchers, M. Sue Benford and Joseph Marino, will, for the first time, discuss their provocative image-formation research on the nationally-syndicated radio program, "Mysteries of the Mind," hosted by Alex Merklinger. The program airs Thursday, January 25, 2001 from 9:30 - midnight Eastern Standard Time. It is broadcast via satellite and is also aired on the Internet. (For information regarding the show see: http://www.millenniumradionetwork.com) A recent groundswell of interest in a "quantum-based" image formation theory has developed since the publication of Benford's article in the Dec. 2000/Jan. 2001 issue of the Journal of Theoretics (www.journaloftheoretics.com) that provides important clues into the formation of the enigmatic image on the Shroud of Turin, theorized by many to be the actual burial cloth of Jesus of Nazareth, and history's most studied artifact. The article, entitled "Empirical Evidence Supporting Macro-Scale Quantum Holography in Non-Local Effects," presents a striking new theory validating quantum holography, which was derived from research championed by two of the world's most eminent thinkers: physicist David Bohm, a protégé of Einstein's, and Karl Pribram, a highly-respected neurophysiologist from Stanford University. Benford's paper includes detailed 2-D and 3-D images, seemingly derived from the quantum hologram, that are uncannily similar to those seen on the Shroud. To date, no one has satisfactorily explained how the image of a crucified man was produced on the linen. Although Benford's article does not mention the Shroud, the issue's editorial is boldly entitled, "Science Explains the Image on the Shroud of Turin." According to editor, James Siepmann, M.D., "Sue Benford's excellent article, not only offers up a plausible scientific explanation for a very unusual phenomenon but, taking it one step further, this concept of holographic biophysical radiation offers a plausible scientific explanation for the presence of the image on the Shroud of Turin." In a forthright statement, Siepmann remarks, "Though I applaud the work of Ms. Benford, I do wish that she would have delineated out the applicability of her research to the Shroud of Turin in her paper. I do realize that there are many closed minds out there who will reject out of hand any scientific evaluation which may have any religious implication, and her reluctance for not making this obvious implication is understandable. In fact, it may have been better for those of us outside her realm of research to see such ramification of her work, thereby giving outside legitimacy to it." The two researchers' radio interview will provide the first public explanation of the Benford theory. Further discussion will include the ongoing work underway to reproduce a Shroud-like image using the same remote-imaging technology that created the "QuantaGraph" images in the article. According to Benford, "This technology not only creates images from present day but it has also demonstrated the ability to recreate images from the past. Using the Shroud of Turin as the 'witness,' it's plausible to believe we can film the actual resurrection event."
