Michael Dargaville became famous as a poet, performance punk poet, journalist, philosopher, quantum theory-generalist scientist, mind body medicine and lifestyle medicine therapist, meditation teacher, transpersonal psychologist, folk punk singer and musician, surfer, pioneering skateboarder, New Age-spirituality and alien-ET researcher-writer, academic and teacher. He was based in China for nearly 20 years until 2015 where he taught at more than 17 universities and colleges, five at professorial level. Raised and educated in the Sydney international hippie and punk counter culture in the 1970s and 1980s, he did a BA degree in philosophy at Macquarie University and then wrote a seminal 50,000 word MA thesis on mind-body medicine, meditation and the New Age movement at the now defunct but famous Department of General Philosophy at Sydney University. In the early 1990s he did another 45,000 word Masters thesis on the world famous German-American physicist Fritjof Capra and the New Physics. Between 1996 and 2005 he worked on a 65,000 word Masters(Honours)/PhD thesis on mind-body medicine, quantum theory, transpersonal psychology and the New Age movement and its relationship to philosophical idealism, or the notion that mind produces matter. This major work, called The New Idealism, has subsequently been published around the world on the internet and in hard copy form.
