Bob Greenyer is part of a dedicated crew of researchers who think they have cracked the holy grail of energy - sustainable fusion reactions that take place with ordinary elements at room temperature and pressure, with nothing but some copper wire and five volts of input. Greenyer is an active player in the emerging field of low energy nuclear reactions, has stewarded the Martin Fleischmann memorial project for many years, and is working on producing public demonstrations of plasmoid fusion devices for all those who want to come and see them in action. Much of his work is informed by an esoteric frame, where he believes that alchemists and the ancients before them left clues in their art about the architecture of the devices that are needed to pull abundant energy out of the quantum vacuum. Our conversation spans the history of fusion research, the strange findings that Greenyer is reporting, and nearly two hours of us hanging on for dear life as we try to understand the physics of what Greenyer is proposing. Buckle up, it’s a live one!

When not talking to brilliant people or making movies, she spends her time painting, reading, and guiding backcountry excursions. Shilo also did his PhD at Columbia studying the elastic properties of molecular water. When he's not in the film studio, he's exploring sound in music. They are both freelance professors at various universities.
