ALLATRA and the Boys from the Multiverse

Luigi Corvaglia

"Show me a non-physicist talking about quantum physics and I’ll show you an idiot.” I do not know how universally valid this maxim is, but experience tells me that it works reasonably well as a rule of thumb. Especially when quantum physics leaves the laboratory and invades such territories as health or spirituality. Now, I cannot confidently apply that criterion to the protagonists of this article; it would be unfair without knowing them personally. Still, I would say that keeping the possibility in mind is not inadvisable.

The pair in question consists of a gentleman bearing the resounding title “Sir Prof. Dr. Gabriele Pao-Pei Andreoli, MD” and the more modest Alberto Contu. They are the authors of a book with the ambitious title World Federal Constitutionalism and Technologies of Power in the Quantum Age, published by Ediuni.

In his author profile on the publisher’s website, the former is introduced as president of the Institute for Advanced Studies and Cooperation (IASC) and Lidu AI, active in science diplomacy and the ethics of emerging technologies. The profile also credits him with serving as a liaison to the Pontifical Academy of Theology and with membership of the advisory council on international human rights of the Military Ordinariate of Venezuela.

Anyone who remembers him playing Simone in the 1990s television drama I ragazzi del muretto (The Boys From The Wall) can marvel at how far he has come! From the low wall where the show’s teenagers gathered to the quantum governance of the planet: a leap that deserves at least a mention on his CV.

In fact, a closer look reveals that the former actor was all too modest in his publisher’s profile. On his personal website, he describes himself as a researcher, Medical Doctor, constitutional thinker and international diplomat (admittedly, being a “national” diplomat would be rather difficult). Here the subject of the book becomes clear—so to speak. For he writes:

“This interdisciplinary journey has led to the development of a constitutional framework for the post-quantum era, encompassing the concepts of the Babel Principle, the Babel Condition, Cognitive Constitutionalism, the Multiverse of Trust and Post-Quantum Constitutionalism.”

Ah, well, that explains it.

He is also the founder of the World Changers Summit (WCS), which brings together researchers, entrepreneurs and religious representatives around the themes of artificial intelligence, quantum technologies and spirituality.

Andreoli’s CV is an immersive experience. In the biography published by IASC, we find presidencies, teaching positions, academic affiliations, honorary appointments and the founding of Evolutionary Biohacking. These are followed by decorations and orders of chivalry whose geographical spread would require an atlas on the desk.

Some credentials, however, warrant a closer look. The grandly named Institute for Advanced Studies and Cooperation, of which Andreoli is president, turns out to have been founded by Andreoli himself together with Arta Feta in Tirana on 22 June 2022, as recorded in the Anna Lindh Foundation’s directory.

The World Changers Summit, in turn, is a platform of which he identifies himself as founder and director in the CV published on his own website. In short, at least some of the institutions displayed as guarantees of his authority are his own creations.

As for the initials MD, meaning Doctor of Medicine, the same CV leaves a few questions unanswered: its education section refers to the medical faculty of Anania Shirakatsi, a private university in Armenia, and to anti-ageing therapies, but does not specify the degree awarded, the year of graduation or the length of the programme. What is certain is that in 2002 Andreoli was still trying to make his breakthrough in cinema, as Andreoli himself attests on YouTube, adopting the manner of a seasoned filmmaker, while discussing his direction of the short film Un’altra lei.

Curiously, Pao-Poli Andreoli claims to teach at that same Armenian university, though not medicine: international relations.

His biography on his World Changers Summit website adds an honorary professorship at the Catholic University of New Spain in Miami, though based in Mexico. This is a private religious educational institution whose catalogue includes courses such as “Generative Artificial Intelligence with Christian Ethical Principles” and “The Neuroscience of Leadership for Christian Organisations.” The institution itself specifies that its qualifications are geared towards religious service and practice and have no legal validity for professional licensing purposes. Moreover, the title of honorary professor does not, in itself, demonstrate that its holder teaches courses or undertakes regular teaching duties.

It is nevertheless curious to see that Sir (another title that would bear looking into…) Professor Pao-Poli Andreoli promotes not only himself but also a charming “ionised” bracelet. In a video on YouTube, this bracelet is touted, among other things, as infallible protection against malaria. Suddenly, we are in Vanna Marchi territory—the notorious Italian television saleswoman convicted of fraud.

But let us turn to the book’s other author, Alberto Contu. His author profile on Sa Republica Sarda presents him as the “foremost theorist” of Sardist and neo-Sardist ideology. In practice, he advocates the island’s independence.

A biography can be found in the description of the EBiTer course in “Corporate Bioprofiling,” which he taught. Here he is presented as a “generative motivational trainer in HR management, mind trainer and business consultant with a neuro-economic-behavioural and biohermeneutic approach, a manager in the neuroscience of training and communication, an expert in the constitutional philosophy of law, legal hermeneutics and the assessment of work-related stress risk.” This is what happens when the most improbable interdisciplinarity turns into word salad.

At a certain point, however, he admits to a degree in Tourism Studies from the University of Caserta. He also claims a “Doctor h.t.” in communication sciences from Lincoln University in Santa Fe, which does not, however, appear in the current official directory of private institutions in New Mexico.

Contu heads AIMOT, the Advanced Institute of Motivational Training. In its public profile, the institute brings together the neuroscience of training, psychobiology “of the French school,” motivation, communication, orthomolecular nutrition and corporate well-being. Here, too, it is unclear how communication intersects with orthomolecular nutrition. The latter, however, is a pseudoscientific discipline that proposes improving health and treating diseases through particular concentrations of vitamins, minerals and other substances, often at high doses. I do not know how a bachelor’s degree in tourism qualifies anyone to practise this discipline, but then, since it is pure nonsense, nobody should be qualified to practise it.

The criticism is hardly new. An assessment published in the American Journal of Psychiatry already found the evidence supporting orthomolecular psychiatry weak and its therapeutic claims unjustified.

Contu’s repertoire also includes biohermeneutics. The term has a respectable philosophical use: Jos de Mul, for example, employs it in discussing the understanding of life and organisms through Dilthey and Plessner. In Contu’s professional profile, however, biohermeneutics is associated with “total biology,” maps of needs and conflicts, and psychogenealogy, with applications to staff recruitment and management.

Another biography presents the integration of psychobiology, archetypology and symbolic hermeneutics as the basis of his ECOSPERT method, “Communication Ecology for Total Personal Development.” Evocative, certainly. But the concept of total biology, according to which disease is a biological solution activated by the brain in response to an unbearable psychological conflict, is clearly an idea without scientific validity. Not to mention psychogenealogy, which interprets psychological difficulties and personal experiences through supposed conflicts, secrets or traumas transmitted across generations.

Among the books attributed to Contu is Attraction Code, presented in one biography with the subtitle How to Develop the Power of the Law of Attraction. The reference, however, needs explaining.

In its most widespread versions, the law of attraction holds that thoughts and emotions attract corresponding events. The claim that the will directly changes events seeks a scientific veneer through misinterpretations of quantum mechanics (there it is again…). Thought, in other words, influences the world according to its wishes. This is, of course, an unfounded idea. As we have said, neither man is a physicist—with all that this implies—and they probably have no idea what nonsense they are talking.

Having reviewed the two authors whom quantum physics brought together—it must, of course, have been the law of attraction—let us come to the point: these are the thinkers called upon to provide a veneer of scientific authority for the apocalyptic movement AllatRa in Italy.

AllatRa is a movement that originated in Russian-speaking Ukraine and developed around the chiropractor Igor Danilov, intertwining New Age spirituality, conspiracy theories, UFO mythology and predictions of planetary catastrophes. An investigation by Facta described its production of climate disinformation, also disseminated through the “Creative Society” project. The movement presents itself to the public as a network committed to research, cooperation and safeguarding humanity.

Its relationship with our two “boys from the wall” is documented by AllatRa’s own channels. The movement devoted a lengthy interview recorded in Washington to Andreoli, presenting him as an authoritative voice on regenerative science, quantum technologies and spiritual diplomacy. On 17 May 2026, a delegation from AllatRa Italy also attended the presentation of the two authors’ book at the Turin International Book Fair, interviewing both men and filming the event.

Contu also appears among the speakers at a side event held during the OSCE meeting in Vienna in June 2026, organised by the AllatRa Global Research Center. Here he is introduced as a senior consultant in constitutional theory and ethical governance, taking part in a discussion of the stigmatisation of groups and the proposed concept of “informational terrorism.” In AllatRa’s terminology, “informational terrorism” means a coordinated campaign that, through stigmatising labels, supposedly makes discrimination against or repression of a group socially acceptable—in this case, AllatRa itself. Contu illustrates this with the stereotype associating sardinian shepherds with banditry and kidnapping.

The picture is now complete: AllatRa claims scientific authority by showcasing our two champions of interdisciplinarity, complete with bracelets, biohermeneutics and multiverses of trust. At the same time—do not laugh—it accuses of disinformation anyone who takes the trouble to check not the credentials of its “scientists,” which we do for fun, but the apocalyptic claims and conspiracy theories of their cult. Intimidation and smear campaigns against researchers studying the phenomenon, however, evidently fall outside their conception of “informational terrorism.” In the multiverse of trust, the definition depends on who is holding the microphone.
