Abstract

The late Dr. Masaru Emoto developed a new method called Water Crystal Photography in 1994, which could be used to visualize the information contained in water. In 1999, he combined many experimental data during the previous 5 years and published "Messages from Water", a collection of water crystal photographs. The main point of "Messages from Water" is that water may have a capacity to memorize information. However, in conventional science, the possibility of memory of water has not been acknowledged, and as a result, there has been criticism that "Messages from Water" is unscientific. However, during the past 10 years, some of the top scientists of the world have been giving evidence which suggests that water has memory. Dr. Gerald Pollack of the University of Washington found that a special phase exists in water, which was named &quto;The 4th Phase of Water&quto;, in addition to the 3 phases of solid, liquid and vapor. He is saying that it is possible to give a plausible, scientific explanation for the phenomena that are shown in &quto;Messages from Water&quto; by considering &quto;The 4th Phase of Water&quto;, and giving two reasons for this claim. First, the 4th phase is the precursor of ice - the stage just before freezing; and, second, because the 4th phase is ordered, it has the capability of storing information. In this presentation, after briefly explaining about the summary of &quto;Messages from Water&quto;, I will introduce the research on &quto;The 4th Phase of Water&quto; by Dr. Pollack and then discuss about the relationship between them.
