By the mid-1980s, Calhoun was losing his research funding at NIMH. He eventually submitted his resignation in September 1986.[32] In his final years, he opted to pursue various idiosyncratic projects. He worked on a never-completed science fiction novel, 317 P.H.: A Satire on a Future Multiple "Utopia", about a post-human species that was bred to survive the apocalypse."[33] He resumed promoting, and trying to invent, a prosthetic "world brain".[33]
