Disclosure As A Movement - A Critique

Image
  T o my now likely former readership: I will endeavor to produce blog items for your consideration, given how dense the current popular discourse seems to be. That density needs filtration, and focus. My role as Executive Director now occupies 80% of my professional time (and 90% of the personal), with the rest devoted to research and thinking that needs to underwrite my work at what is becoming a leading UAP organization, focused, strictly, on science and scholarship, and the necessary foundations of both. We are in process of developing our institutional research agenda, and that is, naturally, informed by my own thinking. But it is collaborative: our Research Director, a brilliant and capable data scientist in his own right, will work to produce this agenda with me. There is a lot going on, on many levels. We are all quite busy. Now, for my first venture I offer a piece where to the incipient "Disclosure" movement, I demur. Quite firmly. I will write these pieces for the ...

Back To Egging It

Image
Far beyond being remiss, I finally find a moment in my hectic schedule to upload this post, long overdue and probably long out of date (completed over a month ago, it feels lightyears away, somehow). From then until now I had the opportunity to be at the third iteration of the Archives of the Impossible , with the Crowd (it was all UFO/UAP this time), and then to an event only a few short weeks later, at Durham University (the second such symposium trying to bring together the SETI and UAP research communities). As I reach for the  “ publish ”  button this time, we are in the unfortunate aftermath of the predictably-bad Elizondo-led Congressional Briefing that was, I think, sponsored by something called the UAP Disclosure Fund (UAPDF) — an org spearheaded by an assorted crew last year, if my increasingly overloaded and crowded memory serves me anything nearly correctly. UAP groups seem to pop up like moults of mushrooms after a heavy downpour (and I added to that crop in Sept....

Returning To The Basics

Image
  I am not entirely sure where to begin with this post, which comes to you (now perhaps an empty room) after many, many months of silence – at least here at Entaus. My silence has not, of course, been for lack of activity on my part, regarding the UAP subject. Indeed, I have been rather busy. Life has taken some, shall we say, interesting turns (and twists). But I continue to be deeply, profoundly, obsessively interested in the subject (sometimes so much so that I will withdraw from it as from a plate of sweets). As ever I was. My early convictions – that indeed there is a there here to be studied, probed, engaged, thought through, researched, analyzed, interpreted (the whole range of intellectual and empirical tools brought to bear on the enigma) – are if anything only further strengthened as I get deeper into the subject not, now, merely as a hermeneutic explorer (a “hermeonaut”?) but as an active organizer, a founder of a learned association of fellow academics and professiona...
