SciXFriday - Quantum curiosities: reality known, unknown, impossible, probable, And Aliens

"I regard consciousness as fundamental. I regard matter as derivative from consciousness. We cannot get behind consciousness. Everything that we talk about, everything that we regard as existing, postulates consciousness." Max Planck, Big Think, one of the founders of quantum theory, PBS

Aliens: Why they are here. Bryan Appleyard books, photog on Flickr
Amazon Review: Reading Aliens is a true pleasure and an adventure into the present state of the human mental condition. The mercy with which Appleyard observes endears, his reasoning astounds and his knowledge humbles. And aliens, whatever they are, are real. Aliens, in whatever way, exist.

Nick Redfern, The Black Diary - warning - things might get spooky

  Then she posted her links for the week, bingo! Midnight Radio/Comic Gallery. Radio stations are haunted. The station where I had my first full-time position had bullet holes in the walls. A former DJ who died on the air had a designated line (dead). When/if that line lit up, it would be him (Harry Becker) calling our number. KCKN. Ghosts of radio past.

An interview with Nick Redfern on how he got involved in researching UFOs and Paranormal Phenomena. This is from 2012. He had just published Close Encounters of the Fatal Kind. In 2018, he can now talk about some of his own first-hand accounts with the paranormal and unexplained.



The newest book from Nick (June 5, 2018 publication date) is The Black Diary: M.I.B, Women in Black, Black-Eyed Children, and Dangerous Books.

Highlights include: dozens of never-before-seen stories of encounters with these creatures;
Nick’s own sighting of an MIB; the ability of these multi-dimensional entities to invade our
space in hostile fashion; and how and why writing, reading and even thinking about them can be hazardous.

Note the warning on the book cover. Read a few more encounters and you realize he is very serious. A near miss by a lightning strike sets the tone. And that story has an interesting connection. We cover that in the interview.

My own MIB encounter happened in a dream that I took as a warning and a prompt for immediate action. I was given instructions. I remember the details, the scene and why it was important. There was no audible conversation. Our communication was brief and telepathic.

The part I didn't mention was some of what was going on during my waking hours. We had an unusual amount of pedestrian activity at that time, people we didn't recognize, walking by and lingering in front of the house.

Often, they would be carrying a cell phone. The other odd piece was an increase in Helicopter traffic. Mostly, at night. There is more to the story. 2009 was an interesting year.

The Black Diary collection includes an encounter with a skeletal WIB who shows up after a UFO sighting: "The Government is Concerned." There is MIB intimidation in "Don't Say a Word" and in a very interesting and unusual file, a Contactee who (like PK Man Ted Owens), claimed psychic forces (source) gave her information that the Challenger Space Shuttle disaster was intentional - sabotaged.

Nick Redfern is the author of more than forty books. They include Men in Black; Women in Black; The Roswell UFO Conspiracy; and 365 Days of UFOs. Follow him at: http://nickredfernfortean.blogspot.com

Our previous interview covered the world of UFO. 365 Days of UFOs: A Year of Alien Encounters. Bigfoot makes at least one cameo. That show is in the Wendy's Coffeehouse archives. Link.

A recently deceased friend had been contacting me but I could not engage because I had to focus on my work. The visual appeared to pull itself together in the consistency of ashes with the shape of a physical form, having volume and texture. Then it dissolved.)

8/26 - Duncan Laurie, The fascinating realm of Radionics. "Plants and rocks seemed to respond in different ways to individual people who touched or played music to them. At times they appeared to play along with music and exchange signals with each other. While it was not entirely clear what we were observing or why they were taking place, the effects were impressive enough to be considered ‘radionic.’"
