HAROLD TERRY LINDAHL President of the Intropy=Entropy Institute is a noted Bay Area artist and architect influenced by the Cosmology of G. I. Gurdjieff.  A student of Bruce Goff in the 1950’s, Lindahl initially studied the geometric base of Art and Architecture at the University of Oklahoma.  Following twelve years of apprenticeships, he became Chief of Design for Haines & Tartarian in San Francisco and Charles Luckman in New York. Establishing Lindahl & Associates in 1980, his firm oversaw large-scale projects such as the Daly City Civic Center, Los Banos High School, Loren Eden Elementary School, International Airlines Boarding Lounge, as well as numerous high-rise buildings, multifamily, and commercial projects, until 2008. 

A pupil of the Gurdjieff ideas under the guidance of John Sinclair Pentland (1964 to 1984), Lindahl on retirement from architecture prepared for the challenge of expressing through geometric order, metamorphic forms, and color an Art that informs Science of Religion and Religion of Science. Founding his Institute in 2016, Lindahl achieved bringing the revelations of Einstein, Darwin, and Gurdjieff into a unified 21st Century vision that moves humanity from Anthropocentrism to a Cosmopomoral worldview. His exhibition The Gestation, Inner History and Potential of Humanity, which opened to the public in 2019, can be described as an atavistic form of art allowing viewers to study how the autonomic, neuropathways function within the harmonious development of man.  Lindahl is the author of Logosophy: Theory of Perpetuity (2004) and The Harmonics of Unity: Endogenous Semiotics of the Vagus-Pineal Gyre (2017).

SUSANNAH HAYS, PhD is an artist and independent researcher who provides educational, archival, and exhibition outreach for nonprofit institutions. Formerly a faculty member at the San Francisco Art Institute, she is an advisor to the I=E Institute in San Francisco and an active member of CIRET (Le Centre International de Recherches et Études Transdisciplinaires) in Paris. Her fine art photographs reflect a philosophical approach to image-making that contributes to her understanding of the human predicament. By way of her dissertation: Nature’s Discourse: A Co-Evolutionary Systems Approach to Art and Environmental Design (U. C. BERKELEY, 2016) and her subsequent article: Nature’s Discourse: Transdisciplinarity and Vagus Nerve Functioning (ATLAS, 2018), she has engaged in a series of conversations with Dr. Stephen W. Porges and others concerning the biological and cultural imperatives for humanities-based educational programs. Collectively, these dialogues explore how curricula might address the somatic pressures placed upon the autonomic nervous system while fostering conditions that support human development. Overall, this body of work further examines how the more recently evolved capacities of the neocortex may contribute to the refinement and adaptation of latent human potential, both individually and culturally.
