We have developed an eight dimensional complex Minkowski space M4, compiled of four real dimensions and four imaginary dimensions, which is constant with Lorentz invariance and analytic continuation in the complex plane(1). Complexification, of Maxwell's equations requires a non-Abelian gauge group, which amends the usual theory which utilizes the usual unimodular Weyl U1 group. We have examined the modification of gauge conditions using higher symmetry groups such as SU2, SUn and other groups such as the SL(2,c) double cover group of the rotational group SO(3,1). The mappability of the twistor algebra and the spinor calculus is analyzed in the context of the electromagnetic theory. Thus we are led to new and interesting physics involving extended metrical space constraints, the usual transverse and also longitudinal, non Hertzian electric and magnetic field solutions to Maxwell's equations, possibly leading to new communications systems and antennae theory, non-zero solutions to Ñ·B, and a possible finite but small rest mass of the photon. Comparison of our theoretical approach is made to the work of T.W. Barrett and H.F. Hermuth?s work on amended Maxwell's theories. (1) C. Ramon and E. A. Rauscher, Found. of Phys. 10, 661 (1980)
