audio conversation with Jake Kotze

Synchromystic.

I love the term Synchromysticism, it was coined by the young enigmatic film-maker Jake Kotze. From his home in Winnipeg Manitoba, he has creating a series of delightful videos that attempt to define an elusive force that is welling up all around us.

Pop culture is easily dismissed as trite and vapid, and it can be dismissed by those searching for deep metaphysical answers. But hidden within the soup of our mundane movies and TV shows is a path to the divine.

We dig deep into psychedelics, interacting with aliens, crop-circles and transformative experiences all interwoven with synchronicities.

Posted here are a few of Jake's short and mysterious videos. On one level they might seem sort of silly and clever for clever's sake, but on another level (at least for me) they resonate as something deeply profound.

Found media video as a pioneering form of communication.

Here is a LINK to a really great interview with Jake done by the late Kent Daniel Bentkowski on his site The Kentroversy Tapes. This was recorded Oct. 22nd, 2007, four years and a day from today.

Christopher Knowles & William Henry

Two of our most impressive thinkers in conversation.

Christopher Knowles and William Henry share their insights in a half hour interview. Mr. Knowles uses his new book, THE SECRET HISTORY OF ROCK 'N' ROLL as a jumping off point toward deeper mysteries. Mr. Henry manages to frame this fascinating conversation into something perfectly transformative.

profound essay on LUMINOSITY

Dan Mitchell shares some deeply profound experiences on his blog LUMINOSITY. This is a long and heartfelt post, and I encourage you to read the entire essay.

A short excerpt:
Shortly after 10pm on Tuesday night I felt a strange urge to go outside. ... This urge ... was much stronger than at previous times. So while my kids and my wife slept ... I put on my sweater and walked out the back door. When I turned the corner, I thought for a moment that I saw a deer standing in the middle of my driveway. Deer are not that common in this area, but they do come by every now and then. Then, my vision shifted and I thought I was now looking at a pale-skinned naked kid standing in my driveway which startled me even more. When my mind was finally able to process the image, it became clear that this was one of "them". This being looked incredibly similar to the stereotypical Gray, but not as "science fiction" as they appear in popular culture...

This event lasted less than ten seconds. This being stood about 5 and 1/2 feet tall, had pasty and very smooth skin, with a slightly over-sized head ... I remember saying "whooa!" loudly and putting my hand out almost like I was saying, "don't come a step closer". For about eight seconds it was standing directly in front of me completely still like it was undecided on what to do. It's eyes were huge and reflecting the floodlights behind me. This is why when I first saw it, I thought it was a deer or large animal. The effect in its eyes was so intense that I felt myself begin to momentarily disassociate, but quickly pulled it together. This leads me to believe our natural response is to enter trance states in their presence for our own protection. This may not be something they are intentionally doing.

audio interview with Lucretia Heart

“A great wind upon thin glass, shattering your paradigm.”

That haunting quote from Lucretia could sum up the entire two plus hour interview.

Lucretia Heart is a pen name. She shares her abduction and UFO related experiences on a haunting blog titled At Spiral’s End. Her written work is a collection of deeply personal life events. To add to the strangeness, both she and her husband are both abductees, and their parallel experiences are profoundly bizarre. Just so y'know, two experiencers marrying each other is not uncommon.

One-click audio download HERE.

2 hours and 12 minutes long

This interview is a spiraling of topics, and here's just a taste of the topics we cover: The existential challenge of seeing a being in her bedroom while fully conscious as a 16 year old, an unexplained pregnancy, shared experiences with her future husband, contacting Budd Hopkins, the feeling of mission, the information loops among experiencers before email, a relationship with a hybrid being named Diana, Wonder Woman and the Goddess motif, bad wigs, a handsome hybrid being named Ethan, tiny handwriting and the role of blogging.

As a writer, Lucretia has been extremely prolific, there is a huge volume of her experiences posted on her blog. But somehow, we mange to avoid re-telling too much. Our conversation and it’s details is almost entirely composed of events that have never been shared on-line.

Two gaunt actors with blue eyes and defined cheekbones are referenced to describe the tall being named Ethan.

The mysterious Ethan shows up as a key figure in the conversation. There are two postings about Ethan that are hinted at in the audio, but not fully explained. One is titled Are you ready for Armageddon? and the follow up is A letter to Ethan. In my opinion, both are required reading.

Audio interview with Melinda Leslie

Melinda Leslie has been public with her own abduction experiences for over 20 years. For the last 18 years she has been actively researching the involvement of a clandestine group in the lives of abductees.

MILAB is an acronym for Military Abduction, and RE-ABS is an acronym for Re-Abductions. There is an important difference, and it is addressed in this audio interview.

2 hours and 39 minutes long

This research into the covert-operations of alien abductees is re-defining both the UFO cover-up and abduction paradigms. She has uncovered an ongoing program of monitoring, harassment and re-abduction of very vulnerable people.

Her years of investigation has meant the accumulation of a lot of data and detailed experiences, including her own. The covert-operations that invade the lives of the abductees be the best evidence for both the reality and importance of UFO abduction experiences.

diet soap podcast

I'm part of an interview with Doug Lain now posted on his podcasting site DIET SOAP. We spoke about synchronicities, UFOs and the more bizarre aspects of the "experiencer" phenomenon. Doug is fiction writer, and very much a poet in the way he looks at complex issues. This mindset allows him to dig a little deeper into things that sit at our periphery.

The episode is intermixed with audio clips from Budd Hopkins and John Mack, as well as Doug reading from some of his own work. It's inspiring to listen to someone who takes on the role of an artist in the podcast format.

Doug also did a really good two part interview with Budd Hopkins, and during those episodes he shares some of his own experiences. Part ONE and part TWO.

a comrade starts a new blog

There is a blogger with the pen name Lucretia Heart that I've written about and linked to on this site. She is also an experiencer with a very powerful set of memories. She'll post essays about her alien abduction experiences, but they are interspersed with other more "normal" stories. So any reader interested in her more bizarre postings is required to dig thru her site a little bit.

But, she has (finally!) started blog dedicated specifically to these decidedly strange experiences. This essential reading is now archived on a site called SPIRAL'S END.

She writes:

"I've had a lot of people interested in the freakier aspects of my full personal online journal. Given this, I've decided to start a version of that journal that concentrates solely upon the paranormal-- especially the alien abduction aspects of it... I'll be adding new entries as well as entries previously posted to my other journal."

This woman has had some frightfully profound experiences. And to make things more compelling, she is an excellent writer. When she says something, I pay very close attention.
