5th Annual British Exopolitics Expo

The 5th Annual British Exopolitics Expo is to be held on Saturday 28th September 2013 at the University of Huddersfield, West Yorkshire, UK. Although I am (once again!) unable to attend, I cannot recommend these conferences enough as they provide a fascinating glimpse into the extra-terrestrial  subject. The ticket price is £20.00 on the door. Here are the details from the most recent press release:
 
This September sees the West Yorkshire town of Huddersfield play host to a series of lectures that will look at the prospect that extra-terrestrial life has already been discovered, not only by NASA during the Viking Mission to Mars in 1976, but independently by two UK scientists years early.
 
The 5th Annual British Exopolitics Expo, this year held at the University of Huddersfield, is focusing its public lecture series on the Secrets of the Solar System and features a lecture by one of those pioneering scientists.
 
Professor Chandra Wickramasinghe, who originally discovered bacteria in space with the famous Yorkshire astronomer Sir Fred Hoyle in 1974, will present a lecture detailing how recent discoveries of fossilised microorganisms in certain types of meteorites, and also living diatoms (a type of algae) found falling into Earth’s atmosphere from space, continues to strengthen their theory of Cometary Panspermia which will have its 40 anniversary next year.
 
Professor Wickramasinghe, a Team Member of the European Space Agency’s Rosetta Mission which, in 2014 will see a robotic probe land on comet 67P/Churyumov–Gerasimenko, is the leading proponent of Cometary Panspermia which stipulates that microbes found in space and on Earth originally grew and multiplied in comets in the early period of our solar system before seeding life on planet Earth.
 
In lecture “Extra-terrestrial Life: Discovery & Disclosure” former Analytical Scientist, Anthony Beckett will present the evidence showing that NASA did indeed discover evidence of microbial life on Mars 37 years ago and suggests that the reason the data was not accepted was political and not scientifically based.
 
Skipton-born Open University tutor Andrew Johnson will look further at the “Secrets of the Solar System” and suggest that there is evidence of extra-terrestrial life, not only limited to simple life forms but perhaps extra-terrestrial intelligences may have left their mark … if we knew what to look for.
 
Nexus magazine editor Marcus Allen and U.S. researcher Richard Dolan (presenting "UFOs and the National Security State") will also be speaking.
 
The expo is being held at the University of Huddersfield’s Canalside West Lecture on Firth Street, Huddersfield on Saturday September 28th 2013.
 
This is an event organised by Anthony Beckett, who is the executive producer of Exopolitics Great Britain – an organisation that has been promoting the notion that we are not alone by holding international Exopolitics conferences in the United Kingdom. Tickets are prices £20 and £15 for N.U.S. card holders.

9/11 - Twelve Years On...


As most of you will no doubt know, today is the twelfth anniversary of the events of 9/11. At this time, every year, the cultural zeitgeist (perpetuated by the mainstream media) kicks into high gear and bombards the masses with a load of reinforcing propaganda that tops up all the programmed notions and aspects of perception management that were very much a result of the events of that fateful day.

In the UK, most mainstream channels usually re-air all of the hit pieces that were conceived in the aftermath of the events. This year has been an oddly sedate affair and it seems that, for a variety of reasons, 9/11 is keeping its head down. Aside from the usual day long marathons being broadcast on P.R. outlets such as National Geographic and the History Channel, the rest are keeping a relatively low profile.

This is hardly a surprise though when one looks at the current state of affairs in relation to the bigger picture. It is not hard to recognise the events that led from 9/11. Illegal wars of aggression and occupation, regime change, big bad bogeymen conjured up from every nook and cranny you could imagine, Orwellian laws designed to curtail individual rights and liberties, weapons of mass destruction curiously appearing in the neighbourhood of any country that doesn’t play ball with the precepts of Global Governance – these have all become par for the course since 9/11.

There is a tendency to fall into the trap of believing that there is actually nothing left to say about 9/11 and its legacy. Whilst it may be true, we should never get complacent and tire of discussing that which is now known. Certainly, I believe that the evidence I recount to others (namely the work of Dr Judy Wood in her book “Where Did The Towers Go?”), pretty much speaks for itself. Those who continually call for a “new debate”, “new discussion” or “new investigation” (in my personal opinion) are wandering down a dead end path.

Never the less, we do need to keep talking about that which we know. It is curious that the sudden low key approach has timed with the current situation in Syria. I am somewhat heartened by public reaction to the Syrian paradigm. Most of us were convinced that a strike upon the country (in some form) was literally 24 hours away… and this was weeks ago. We have, in actuality, seen all manner of “back peddling” over recent weeks.

In the UK, the government’s initial beating of the war drum rapidly went quiet when it became obvious that (perhaps even more than at the time of the Iraq invasion) public opinion was simply not on their side. I have listened to people I know (who would usually be all in favour of a war) espousing far more caution. Mostly, this reluctance seems to stem from a belief that we really shouldn’t be spading out money for a foreign war, when there is “no money at home”!

There is a delicious irony in all this, for it seems that the current economic woes engineered by the “powers that be” may have been inadvertently responsible for derailing the war plans (and, ultimately, the steps on the road to global governance) of the “powers that be”!

There is more though. Far more people began to recognise the same old tune (with Syria) that was used to carefully manipulate the masses in the lead up to the Iraq invasion. Weapons of mass destruction in Syria became a far more convoluted affair than a simple pre-cursor to cause and effect. Put simply, the analogous “boy who cried wolf” tale just wasn’t being listened to any more.

This far from removes the inevitability of the “powers that be” acting in accordance with their global governance agenda, given that they know how to craft many alternatives routes to their goals.

These, and far more serious implications, are the true legacy of 9/11. 9/11 revealed the one (metaphorical and literal) truly bone fide weapon of mass destruction. Not only in the form of a directed free energy weapon, but also in the form of a weapon that can reconfigure our beliefs, ideals and notions of our world around us and what is yet to come. Maybe twelve years has allowed us some time to begin to reclaim those beliefs and ideals as our own.

It is with determined hope that I believe a day will come when those events will be examined through the eyes of a more accurate and evidential historical context, rather than those of pre-conceived notions, managed perceptions and a manufactured program of cultural and historical indoctrination. Hopefully, by then, we will have removed ourselves from the current state of war upon our consciousness and begun to recognise something of our larger reality.

We can but hope…

Peace folks!

Richplanet TV Has Been Pulled From National Television



I learned of some sad news last night… sad news at least for me, although I suspect there will be many others who share my sentiments. Richard D Hall’s excellent show “Richplanet TV” has been pulled from the Showcase channel due to a complaint received by OFCOM from an apparently disgruntled viewer.

Although, OFCOM have yet to rule, “Information TV” (the company that held the contract making it possible for the show to air on television) has decided that dealings with OFCOM are just too time consuming (amongst other reasons) and have effectively decided to terminate the shows contract. This means that Richplanet TV currently no longer appears on TV.

Richard D Hall has made a short video explaining the details here:
http://www.richplanet.net/pulled.php

I have watched Richard’s show pretty much from day one. It is largely thanks to his tireless efforts to showcase often incredibly dedicated and legitimate researchers, that I became aware of the work of Dr Judy Wood, Andrew Johnson, Lloyd Pye, Rupert Sheldrake, the list goes on. It is a safe bet to also say that it would have taken me considerably longer to become aware of Anthony Beckett and Exopolitics GB, Dave Hodrien and BUFOG, the determined work of David Cayton or Gary Heseltine, or Ben Emlyn Jones’ HPANWO blog, had it not been for Richplanet TV.

Richard himself has been no slouch, having researched and compiled numerous documentaries on a variety of subjects, as well as blowing the whole 9/11 / ‘no planes’ discussions completely up in the air thanks to his meticulously assembled radar data evidence.

I will also miss the laughs! Despite the serious subject matters on the show, it was hard to avoid a smirk every time Richard reached for his trusty “bulls*** detector”, referred to something unusual as “it’s Bob Lazar!” or even the earlier days of the show when guests were “beamed” aboard the old “Richplanet Starship”!

I have often said that my personal list of reasons for throwing the old “hypnobox” in the local skip is a very long one! Despite the many hours that my TV has gathered dust in the corner, waiting for the inevitable final journey to the dump, it has received continual reprieves – mostly thanks to Richplanet TV.

 Why should any of this matter though? Well, in a nutshell, there are still a huge number of folk who watch the TV, regardless of the tripe that is shovelled out for mass consumption. Perhaps, in the back of my mind, I always felt that Richplanet TV was the one stubborn little bastard that refused to budge from the airways… that whilst it remained, there would always be one hour of truth and integrity left on TV. The decision to remove the show is perhaps an inevitable sign of the times.

My hope is that the show will return to the box in the corner. Richard is a dedicated individual who, I’m sure, will not be beaten by this turn of events. His website still remains, as will his documentaries and talks. I hope he will continue to interview researchers and report on all manner of subjects, perhaps keeping Richplanet TV available as an internet based show.

At the end of the day, whilst TV continues to articulate its stranglehold over the majority, I truly believe that we need outlets of enlightenment and integrity – outlets like Richplanet TV, to redress the balance and remind the powers that be that they can’t have it all their own way… that the truth will always point to itself.

Whatever the future may hold, at least Richard appears to be unfettered by these current circumstances. Given his determination, we can be certain that Richplanet (in some form or another) will be around for a while to come.

Long may it continue and my huge respect and gratitude to Richard for all he has done to open my eyes a little more.

Songs for Chaotic Times - The Lowdown



"Songs for Chaotic Times"
What's it all about? I couple of people have asked me to shed some light on my intentions with this album. So here goes!


Much of the inspiration for recording these songs came from my frustration with some musical friends who ran a mile from writing and performing "protest songs", especially subjects such as 9/11 and mind control. "Songs" is actually nothing like the accepted notion of a protest song! I have always believed that ground level realisation comes from the simplest of things - like a story or a song. It is a difficult balancing act (in song writing) between commercial pap that says too little and the kind of preachy and dogmatic stuff that you would find at (for example) a Christian rock concert! In terms of spreading information, it also tough to avoid merely singing all the names in a telephone directory. Hopefully, "Songs" has proved the point that it can be done in a credible way. Ironically, I ended up having a number of musicians on board with the album.

Sadly, although I'm not in the least bit ungrateful, these were largely people with a broader perspective and slightly more open mind. My hope is that the album will encourage those who operate by the mainstream rulebook to think outside the box, and that these songs will awaken some larger truths in a few people. If I have accomplished even this, then the time and work involved was worth it and I can consider it a job well done!

Track 1 - "Lullaby" (00:10)
My original idea for this project was one of an over-arching concept album - a non-specific individual on a journey from the moment of realisation that "something just ain't right", through the depression and anger, and finally reaching some sense of clarity, awakening and acceptance. The whole thing ended up slightly maudlin though and ended up only being represented by four or five of the tracks that made the album.


This tale of a non-descript relationship coming to an end, as a result of one person waking up and the other in total denial, was planned to be sung by the female half of the relationship. I called upon Claudia Sterling, an all-round musical genius (of whom I'm very envious!) and a lovely person to boot. Claudia heard a few of the tracks that featured my preferred surreal soundscapes and subsequently insisted on having her vocals distorted to match the effect, as well as forcing me to sing with her. It is the one track that I almost left out because I preferred the original vocals. However, I bowed to Claudia's wishes... something most sane men usually do!

Track 2 - "Hypnobox" (02:20)
My awakened muso friend "Poxy" (D.J. Proxy) had not long re-watched "Tron Legacy" when we met up. We ended up discussing the questionable output of Disney and the like, when I played him a rough rock version (that I had already recorded) of this track.


The subject matter of the almost hypnotic nature of the mainstream media, particularly television, got him thinking about the world of "Tron" as a metaphor for the media, and the phenomenon of mind control. We talked about the film's soundtrack which was produced by the techno/dance outfit Daft Punk and ended up remixing the track as a homage to their style. He even recorded and heavily distorted the opening mantras of "consume" and "control" as a nod to the film "They Live".

Track 3 - "The Dream" (06:34)
The largely acoustic sound of this track was recorded in Stu's (a good and awakened musical friend) Skye Sounds - in an old barn actually! "The Dream" represents our manufactured reality and the rut we find ourselves in when we finally transition to something of an awakened state. The orchestral sound is all synthetic, by the way!


Track 4 - "Rabbit Hole" (09:08)
A short tribute to the film "The Matrix", one of my first "moments" of "awakening".


Track 5 - "Sound of Sheep" (11:05)
I actually wrote this song first of all the tracks and recorded the original version over a year ago. When I did my "London 2012" presentation at Truth Juice Birmingham, I took about fifty copies of a rough, four track demo with me to give out to folk. In retrospect, I was hasty including "Sheep".


I played the song to one of my former Who's Renown band mates, who describe it as "like the Bay City Rollers"! This immediately prompted an immediate rethink! After several months, I had retooled the track with an edgier, key-changed sound and largely new lyrics.

"Sheep" is the tale of a stunning looking girl I watched at Occupy London (before I realised what Occupy was REALLY all about) who seemed to simply ape everything that everybody was shouting - regardless of context or personal views. The song is also a larger reflection of the nature of movements and how they usually end up co-opted as "limited hangouts" and "re-routers of truth".


Track 6 - "Cities in the Sky" (14:03)
For most of my teens, I spent a lot of my summers on the East coast of England. My mates and I would spend most the nights on the beach getting (eventually) very inebriated! Around late evening/the early hours of the morning, we would regularly watch objects dart about the sky.


These objects would return with regularity, interact with each other and make manoeuvres that defied the laws of physics. we would often ponder what they really were. Were they manmade or from elsewhere? We knew it had nothing to do with the booze though! "Cities" loosely relates those experiences.

Claudia also added some subtle vocal textures to the song.
 

Track 7 - "Turned to Dust" (16:36)
The first of two songs about 9/11. "Dust" addresses the tireless work and extensively detailed evidence gathered by Dr Judy Wood in her book, "Where did the Towers Go?" The track also addresses some of the denialist, limited hangout positions of the so-called "9/11 Truth Movement".


Dr Wood is an inspiration to me, so I felt it appropriate to include an astute, albeit brief, soundbite of her from one her interviews.

The Harmonica on the track was played by my dad!


Track 8 - "Tuesday Morning" (19:01)
A muse upon the larger cultural zeitgeist of 9/11, as well as my own personal feelings from the actual day of the tragedy. There are also a few additional nods to the dustification of the towers, Hurricane Erin and the "no-planes" angle.


Track 9 - "Dumb Game" (21:26)
A general tirade against the power of the elite, the games they play, and how we usually get sucked into them.


Track 10 - "Cathy" (22:48)
Loosely based upon the account of presidential mind control model Cathy O'Brien, but more a general nod to all those who have been affected. I recorded the piano track at Skye Sounds, but the vocals were recorded at my home. I was never able to quite match the soundscape of the vocals to the piano. A few subtle organ sounds have dulled the disjoint, but I'm still a little disappointed by the final result. Hopefully I will re-record the song at some later date.


Track 11 - "Dem Boots, Bob" (25:18)
A tribute to the legendary Bob Marley, specifically the bizarre tale (featured in Alex Constantine's book "The Covert War Against Rock") of his death - involving the military and intelligence agencies of the day and a pair of boots he was given to wear on stage, which may have contained a prong in the heel, resulting in his death from cancer.


Track 12 - "Fade Away" (27:53)
Original "anthem" track for the concept album idea. Months in the making, with many fingers in the pot! The song is based upon the idea of manufactured "end of days" scenarios and the cultural fallout. Claudia and the incredibly talented Rachel Cavanaugh also recorded parts of the vocal choruses.


Track 13 - "Falling into Place" (32:28)
The "arrival point at the train station of truth"! The first half of the song is about reconciling perceived reality with larger realisations. The latter half is the chaos that pulls at those who are trying to keep it all in perspective.


Track 14 - "Song for Chaotic Times" (34:40)
A bit of a victory song to end the album, a mid-finger up to the powers that be, and a not so subtle dig at those who think that there is "nothing to see" and "everything is fine". "There are none so blind as those who will not see!"


My dad played the accordion on the track.
 

Conclusions
So there you go. My huge respect and gratitude to everybody who got on board with this album. I couldn't have done it without you. Please feel free to repost the music wherever you wish (just don't forget to mention who produced it!), spread the word, give it a thumbs up on YouTube, and so on. Here is the YouTube link:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1eCosUAH2y4

I will hopefully find a home for the actual audio album tracks in the near future and make sure the music is available as a cost free download.

Many thanks for all your continued support and readership, and peace out to you all!

All the best,
Carl (The 'Guide)

Announcing "PiSkyTracker"



Andrew Johnson has put together this brilliant kit for monitoring air traffic, specifically in relation to the Chemtrail phenomenon. Well worth a look. Here are the details pasted from his YouTube page and the video above gives a demonstration of its effectiveness.

This is to announce the availability of a "kit" to enable people to track and log aircraft flying over their location using a fairly cheap combination of electronics.
Contact ad.johnson@ntlworld.com or go through http://www.checktheevidence.com/

To make effective use of the kit, you will need a PC or Mac for initial set up and an internet connection to make best use of the main features. Following initial set-up, the kit can run autonomously using only a little electricity.
It will work anywhere in the world -- you just need the correct power supply for your country.

Background
For some years now, it has been possible to track aircraft flying over your location using such devices as the AirNav Radarbox and the SBS-1, but these have been quite expensive -- costing as much or more than a Laptop PC, which is needed to view the results.

Also online, sites such as www.FlightRadar24.com, Flight Aware and Virtual Radar offer tracking and aircraft identification features, though can be slow to update and somewhat cumbersome to use. Similarly, there are Android and iPhone Apps which interface to these online services and allow you, for example, to identify flights by holding up your phone in the direction of a plane in the sky. Of course, not everyone has an iPhone or Android phone...

The hardware solutions, like the AirNav box, allow flights to be logged but their logging features are not very flexible. For example, with the AirNav box (2010 version of the software), all the messages received and decoded by the box can be saved to log files -- but in a day, 600,000 messages may be received from all the aircraft that are detected, resulting in large log files, which need to be processed by special software to extract useful information. Additionally, for continuous 24/7 logging, things like the AirNav box "tie up" a PC or laptop which may be needed for other uses.

The Website and Phone App solutions don't have logging features of any great sophistication, so there is something needed to allow this logging and counting of aircraft automatically.
This is where PiSkytracker comes in to the picture.
Main Features
• Automatic Logging of Flights and Flight statistics
• Camera Support to Photograph The Sky every Few minutes
• Automatic Capture of Weather Data
• Comprehensive Plane Charting


Charting parameters can be set so that planes within a certain range are drawn on charts which are created every few minutes or every hour. Charting can be set so that only planes above a certain altitude are tracked on the chart. This therefore logs the paths of aircraft over your location (which is shown in the centre of the chart).
• Spoken Flight Announcements
• Data saved in Standard Formats


All this data is saved on a standard SD Card in formats which can be easily read and How does it Work?

The whole system relies on the fact that many aircraft are now transmitting ADS-B (Automatic Dependent Surveillance -- Broadcast) messages when in flight. These messages contain the following information
• A code number identifying the aircraft
• Flight Number
• Altitude
• Position (Latitude/Longitude)
• Speed
• Heading


(This page has a good explanation: http://planefinder.net/about/ads-b-how-planefinder-works/) The tracker simply receives and decodes these messages -- then software can be used to process the messages in any way desired. For example, you can count the number of aircraft which are detected in a given period, within a certain range and above a certain altitude or between certain altitudes.

If you are interested in getting hold of a kit, let me know. I will also be posting additional information soon. I have more or less finalised the software development, but may tweak a few things. Feedback, comments, ideas welcome!
