Red Cross estimate approximately 50,000 dead and 3,000,000 hurt or homeless from
7.0 mag earthquake that hit Tuesday 12th. "Money is worth nothing right now, water
is the currency," one foreign aid-worker told Reuters.

The Unfolding Disaster in Haiti Following a 7.0 magnitude
Earthquake - The Impact on Global Consciousness.
Tuesday 12, 2010.
Colin Andrews
The impact and consequences of such pain, loss, fear and even anger measured by
global consciousness.
We will follow the Global Consciousness Project at Princeton University after observing
on this site a shift into red of the globally located random generators a few hours after
the initial earthquake which was when news began to inform the world of the
magnitude of this disaster.
It goes without saying that my prayers and my love goes out to the many thousands
who have lost their lives, are injured, are homeless and in need of food and water and
the many thousands of families and friends who have lost love ones or are concerned
for their safety. The pictures we are seeing on our television sets are unbearable.
The research project and the current feeds can be seen on my Consciousness page.

One of the worst human disasters to occur took place when a magnitude 7 Earthquake struck Haiti on
Tuesday January 12, 2010. A page has been set up to monitor the effects on human consciousness
via the Global Consciousness Project at Princeton University. Our prayers go out to those who are
going through incalculable suffering. The effects of Haiti on human consciousness HERE.

| THE TERRIBLE HAITI AND CHILE EARTHQUAKES REGISTERED ON RANDOM GENERATORS - THE EFFECTS ON GLOBAL CONSCIOUSNESS? (Results below) |
Haiti Earthquake
By the end of Jan 13, a day after the quake, it is still chaotic. The damage is immense, and by
now there are some rough guesses being made about the loss of life, with suggestions of many
10's of thousands, possibly more than 100,000 people dead.
Our formal prediction includes 8 hours of time, in keeping with the majority of previous
earthquake events, but given the magnitude of the event, it seems worthwhile to look at the
context. In the next figure, 48 hours are shown, with the main temblor near the middle. The
early part is shown in response to requests relating to unsettled feelings interpreted as
possibly precognitive. As it happens, this part shows normal looking variation. This is the case
also in the last part of the figure, which shows the 13th (UTC time) when the extent of the
disaster was becoming more clear.

It is important to keep in mind that we have only a tiny statistical effect, so that it is
always hard to distinguish signal from noise. This means that every "success" might be
largely driven by chance, and every "null" might include a real signal overwhelmed by noise. In
the long run, a real effect can be identified only by patiently accumulating replications of similar
analyses.

Chile Earthquake and Tsunami
A magnitude 8.8 earthquake struck off the coast of Chile late yesterday evening (10:34 PST),
killing scores of people in Chile and causing Hawaii to brace for its biggest tsunami since the
Alaskan earthquake of 1964.
The tsunami alert went out hours before the first waves, traveling at the speed of a passenger
jetliner, were expected to hit Hawaii at 11:19 this morning, local time.
Tourists and coastal residents are expected to wake up to tsunami alarms and evacuation
instructions several hours earlier, tsunami authorities told the Associated Press.
The earthquake occurred along the junction of the Nazca and South American tectonic plates,
which are colliding off the coast of Chile at a rate of 80 millimeters per year.
The coastline of Chile is one of the most active tectonic zones in the world, with 13 temblors of
magnitude 7.0 or greater since 1973, the U.S. Geological Survey reports on its
earthquake-monitoring Website.

BACKGROUND
an international, multidisciplinary collaboration of scientists, engineers, artists and others. We
collect data continuously from a global network of physical random number generators located in 65
host sites around the world. The archive contains more than 10 years of random data in parallel
sequences of synchronized 200-bit trials every second.
Our purpose is to examine subtle correlations that may reflect the presence and activity of
consciousness in the world. We predict structure in what should be random data, associated with
major global events. When millions of us share intentions and emotions the GCP/EGG network data
show meaningful departures from expectation. This is a powerful finding based in solid science.
Subtle but real effects of consciouness are important scientifically, but their real power is more
direct. They encourage us to help make essential, healthy changes in the great systems that
dominate our world. Large scale group consciousness has effects in the physical world. Knowing
this, we can use our full capacities for creative movement toward a conscious future.
The Institute of Noetic Sciences provides a logistical home for the GCP. It is directed by Roger
Nelson from his home office in Princeton, but is not a project of Princeton University.
This website is large and complex. It uses frames and plain html. Navigation is facilitated by two
menus, and requires liberal use of your back button. The Main Menu links to details of the scientific
experiment. The Aesthetics menu points to artistic perspectives, applications, stories, and more. In
the top frame are multi-link buttons that connect to facilities suggested by their names. Return to

We have an Egg in Santiago, which was running at the beginning of the earthquake. It continued
to run for about 20 hours following the major 8.8 temblor, then stopped recording data. On March
1st, it was restored to operation, and the stored data were sent to the GCP server and added to
the archive. The following graph shows the data from the Santiago Egg, ID #2080, in green. The
graph also shows not only the 24 hours of the formal GCP event, but the next 24 hours as well.

The next closest egg to Santiago is in Buenos Aires, where people also felt the quake. Egg # 2069
was running during both days, and its data have a trajectory much like that of the network as a
whole. The next figure shows the two individual eggs, Santiago and Buenos Aires against the
background of the whole network. Again, single events, and data from single eggs can't be
interpreted reliably, but we show this picture as an interesting display of the variation in responses.
