By wirless transfer I mean electromagnetic energy transfered though the air for the purpose of doind work. any information would be most helpful, but I have just about everything written by Marin Soljacic already.

We do it all the time for low energy applications. Forklift battery chargers use inductive paddles. The current transformers literally couple through air.
Radio is another example. And yes, a tesla coil can light up a light bulb from several feet away. A large tesla coil can do much more.

Seeing as how energy can neither be created or destroyed, it is only capable of changing form. A Tesla coil can be used to induce electrical current seemingly from thin air. Theoretically, using an intense enough electromagnetic field at two points can generate a "Wormhole" allowing the passage of physical matter (based in energy) from one point to another without travelling the distance between the two points. Unfortunately, this technology is still in the developmental stage.

Study about Nickola Tesla. But, energy is being transferred as we speak. A good example is Microwaves from Communications. It the same Frequencies as a Microwave in the kitchen just a lower wattage.

The sun is an example of this. Solar energy is transmitted through the air.

What do you exactly mean my energy. Radio and cell phone wave/particles are energy. They travel from one point to another.
