Public interest in UFO and ET matters has never been higher than it is right now. The primary focus of those who are demanding full disclosure and transparency seems to be on rumored crash retrievals, alien bodies, and reverse engineering programs. But what about the hundreds of thousands of people worldwide (perhaps millions) who say they have had direct, face to face close encounters with non-human beings? Do those profound experiences represent the true heart of the NHI conundrum, rather than the focus on nuts and bolts craft and who might successfully replicate the tech before anyone else does it? Whitley Strieber was already a highly successful novelist when he wrote a non-fiction account of his ongoing relationship with a non-human intelligence, beings who appeared to him in multiple forms over multiple years. The book was Communion. It sold millions of copies and had a profound impact on the UFO and ET subjects. The success of the book essentially liberated huge numbers of people around the world from their personal paranoia about the reality of their ongoing encounters. Strieber's continuing relationship with "the Others" is still evolving. His latest book "Transformation 2026" represents a return to his roots, to the fuzzy memories of childhood encounters, and what they might mean for the future of humanity. In this episode of WEAPONIZED, Jeremy and George converse with a brilliant writer whose personal traumas have been liberating for untold millions who've been afraid to speak of or even acknowledge similar experiences.

Whitley Strieber returns to Podcast UFO for a thought-provoking discussion on UFOs, non-human intelligence, Roswell, consciousness, AI, and the enduring mystery of contact. Best known for his groundbreaking book Communion, Strieber shares personal experiences, reflects on the impact of disclosure, discusses the possibility that UFO intelligences originate from another reality, and explains why he believes humanity may have lost abilities once possessed long ago. From the Allagash Abduction case and Roswell to artificial intelligence and the future of human consciousness, this conversation explores some of the deepest questions surrounding the UFO phenomenon and our place in the universe. Whether you're a longtime follower of Strieber's work or new to these topics, this is an engaging and wide-ranging interview you won't want to miss.SHOW NOTESCONTACT AND SUPPORT

New Realities with Alan Steinfeld Beyond the Reality Box, UAP Encounters, Ontological Shock, and the Future of Human Narrative This panel discussion features Whitley Strieber, Dr. Kimberly Engels, and Jeffrey Kripal exploring the profound "meanings and understandings" behind UAP encounters. The conversation shifts focus from government disclosure to the transformative, physical, and ontological impact on the individuals who experience these phenomena. The Physical Baseline and the Burden of Testimony Whitley Strieber emphasizes that the core challenge in understanding UAP encounters is the lack of a recognized "baseline." Despite the public tendency to treat these accounts as jokes or hallucinations, Strieber highlights the undeniable physical trauma and documented anomalies, such as the moving implant in his ear, which he describes as "proof positive" of a physical interaction. Following the publication of his book Communion, Strieber and his wife Anne received approximately 200,000 letters from individuals worldwide. This massive, private archive suggests a "communal work" of experience that intersects with our physical world at a "razor's edge," generating a narrative that humanity has yet to fully articulate. Resisting "Narrative Flattening" Dr. Kimberly Engels argues that society suffers from "epistemic injustice" by forcing experiencer testimony into "reality boxes." This "narrative flattening" occurs when we only listen to parts of a story that fit our pre-existing beliefs, such as the Extraterrestrial or Future Human hypotheses, while discarding "inconvenient" details like time distortions or contact with the dead. She proposes a "layered restorative phenomenology" that moves beyond "belief" and into "participation." This approach honors the profound moral and ethical transformations reported by experiencers, who often emerge with a "post-anthropocentric" worldview and a deep sense of interconnectedness with all life. The Archives of the Impossible and the New Story Jeffrey Kripal, curator of the "Archives of the Impossible" at Rice University, suggests that we are witnessing the breakdown of old cultural and scientific stories. He posits that UAPs, Near-Death Experiences (NDEs), and DMT-induced states may all exist on the same spectrum of "non-dual signals" that blur the boundaries between mind and matter. Kripal argues that the "impossible" is merely a function of our current models, not reality itself. He advocates for a "middle realm" of thought—one that avoids the reductionism of modern science and the moralizing of traditional religion—to allow for a "revelation of reality" where humanity is no longer the apex or center of the universe. The panel concludes that humanity is at a "zero point" or a "reset," where our current understanding of consciousness and physicality is no longer sufficient. By embracing "ontological ambiguity" and the "middle realm," we can move past the shock of the impossible and begin to participate in a multi-dimensional reality that demands a more holistic, interconnected story of what it means to be human.

Step into one of the most unsettling and influential stories in UFO history as we take a deep dive into the life, experiences, and legacy of Whitley Strieber. In this special episode, Ryan and Suzanne explore the phenomenon that helped define the modern alien archetype, from Strieber's alleged abduction on December 26, 1985, to the global impact of his bestselling book Communion. Through rare archival footage, including a 1988 national television interview and chilling hypnosis session audio, we examine the origins of the iconic “gray” alien, the controversy surrounding recovered memories, and the deeply personal toll these experiences took on Strieber and those closest to him. But this episode goes far beyond a single story. We analyze firsthand witness accounts, discuss recurring elements like missing time, paralysis, and alleged implants, and revisit the cultural explosion that followed Communion, including its film adaptation starring Christopher Walken. With perspectives from experiencers, skeptics, and researchers alike, this retrospective asks the questions that still linger today: What really happened to Whitley Strieber? Why do so many accounts share striking similarities? And are these encounters psychological, physical, or something entirely unknown? Whether you're a believer, skeptic, or somewhere in between, this is a journey into one of the most debated and enduring mysteries of the UFO phenomenon.

The woman at the heart of Intruders returns—and her story is more powerful than ever.This week on Dreamland, Deb Jordan Kauble joins us for an intimate and revelatory conversation about the extraordinary encounters that shaped her life and helped define one of the most influential contact cases in modern history. Long before the hybrid narrative entered the UFO lexicon, Deb lived through experiences that Budd Hopkins would document in Intruders—encounters involving strange beings, impossible children, and an emotional dimension that no simple theory can contain. Now, decades later, Deb brings her own voice, her own understanding, and her own extraordinary clarity to the story. We explore the deep human side of these encounters: the maternal connection, the sense of unfinished relationship, the lingering mystery, and the profound questions of identity and purpose that followed. This is not a retelling—it is a reframing, an expansion, and in many ways, a revelation. What did the beings want? Why was Deb chosen? What is the true nature of the children she met—and what do her experiences say about the hidden history of contact itself?Join us for a journey into one of the most emotionally charged and enigmatic corners of the close-encounter world, guided by a witness whose honesty and insight have only deepened with time.

In this conversation, guest host James Faulk from the Neon Galactic podcast and noted psi researcher Adam M. Curry explore the nature of consciousness and of reality, working to chart where the two intersect and where they might diverge. Curry describes his decades of research into psi phenomena, both with the Princeton Engineering Anomalies Research (PEAR) lab and at the Institute of Noetic Sciences, and how best to capture the elusive effects in controlled conditions. Curry, a noted experimenter and inventor himself, explains various methodologies and how they perform in the field. The conversation covers a lot of ground, from Curry's early years as a remote viewer onward. They also explore the subject of plasma, both in terms of psi capabilities and Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena. They further contemplate the state of psi research overall, and consider the implications of its acceptance by mainstream science. What does the world look like if psi is a proven fact? What changes? What stays the same?

In this wide-ranging solo outing Whitley discusses whether or not Trump will disclose, what 3I/Atlas may actually mean and much more, including why Transformation 2025 is being published now. (Kindle due out later in December, physical and audio books soon after.) Transformation 2025 will be available in all formats later in December.

This week on Dreamland, we welcome Dr. Dean Radin to explore one of the most intriguing frontiers in consciousness research: the emerging genetic clues behind psychic perception. We dive into a recent study comparing people who report lifelong psychic abilities with those who don’t—and the surprising discovery of a subtle but consistent genetic difference between them. Dr. Radin explains what this means, why it matters, and how centuries of persecution against mystics and “witches” may have created the modern skeptics community. We also explore the deeper implications for human evolution, intuition, and the hidden capacities of the mind. Along the way, Dean discusses how these findings connect to the themes in his provocative new book, The Science of Magic.

Telepathy is real, but how does it work and is it possible to become telepathic? In this week’s Dreamland, Dr. Max Rempel explains exactly what about the brain makes telepathy possible and how we can take advantage of this innate ability. Then he shows from his research how unknown DNA inclusions in children he has studied must mean that some unseen force (read non-human intelligence) is actively changing the human species.

Professor Tim Murithi in this interview explains how Africa has always been a central part of the UFO encounter phenomenon. Murithi is an internationally respected advocate for peace, a member of the Society for UAP Studies, and an affiliate of the International Coalition for Extraterrestrial Research, or ICER. He is also head of the Peacebuilding Interventions Programme at the Institute for Justice and Reconciliation in Cape Town, South Africa, as well as the Extraordinary Professor of African Studies, at the Centre for African and Gender Studies, University of the Free State, also in South Africa. Murithi has more than 25 years of experience in the fields of peace, security, international justice, governance, and development, and has become an avid scholar of the UAP phenomenon, African folkloric connections to UAP, and the global politics of disclosure. We discuss UFO history in Africa, including the rather prescient scientific knowledge of the Dogon Tribe, E.T.-related Egyptian myths, and the Ariel School event in Zimbabwe, including its investigation by Harvard psychiatrist Dr. John Mack. We drill down on how knowledge that we are not alone may impact the state of our struggling world. Finally, we explore the need for a truth-and-reconciliation movement — such as the one deployed in South Africa to end apartheid — to finally break through what UFO scholar Richard Dolan calls “the truth embargo.”

Hosts Mark Johnson, Bruce Pearson and Irene Allen-Block talk with authors Whitley Strieber & Jeffrey Kripel about their book The Super Natural: Whe the Unexpkained is Real.Whitley Strieber (Communion) and Jeffrey J. Kripal (J. Newton Rayzor professor of religion at Rice University) team up on this unprecedented and intellectually vibrant new framing of inexplicable events and experiences.Rather than merely document the anomalous, these authors--one the man who popularized alien abduction and the other a renowned scholar and "renegade advocate for including the paranormal in religious studies" (The New York Times)--deliver a fast-paced and exhilarating study of why the supernatural is neither fantasy nor fiction but a vital and authentic aspect of life.Their suggestion? That all kinds of "impossible" things, from extra-dimensional beings to bilocation to bumps in the night, are not impossible at all: rather,  they are a part of our natural world. But this natural world is immeasurably more weird, more wonderful, and probably more populated than we have so far imagined with our current categories and cultures, which are what really make these things seem "impossible."The Super Natural considers that the natural world is actually a "super natural world"--and all we have to do to see this is to change the lenses through which we are looking at it and the languages through which we are presently limiting it. In short: The extraordinary exists if we know how to look at and think about it.Original Air Date: March 16, 2016.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/paranormal-uk-radio-network--4541473/support.

Far to the north of England there is a region so haunted and in such a disturbing way that it is known as the Wolf Lands. Listen and Whitley and Wolf Lands researcher Paul Sinclair adventure into the darkness and supernatural menace of this strange region–and happy Halloween!

wo weeks ago William Sosa showed us a working model of the Dendera Lights. This week he returns with a detailed description of how the ancient Egyptians generated the electricity needed to power it, hows a replica of the light in operation and demonstrates how the Egyptians could generate the electricity needed and shows a working model of the device that they used to do this. He also very clearly explains the use of the Ankh and of the mysterious “pinecones” of the Sumerians–AND shows exactly what Ed Leedskalnin did to create the Coral Castle in Homestead Florida.

Gary Lachman, known for his work with Blondie and later as a writer on consciousness and the Western tradition, tells us about his incredible life journey from the NYC underground music scene to his current focus on the mystical and occult, including his experiences with various authors and figures like Colin Wilson and Aleister Crowley. We go deep into the mysteries of chaos magic and beyond in this amazing discussion.

The mysterious objects depicted on the walls of the Temple of Hathor in Dendera have been a source of speculation in the western world ever since they were discovered. Conventional archaeology assumes that they were ritual objects and not what they appear to be, which are lights of some kind. Now engineer William Sosa has created replicas that work as the original objects must have done.

As Whitley puts it in the show, “if we’re trapped here forever then this is a prison. If not, then it’s a school.” But which is it?? Listen to this intense and provocative discussion that begins with a long-ago secret meeting arranged by Laurance Rockefeller between Whitley and Anne Strieber, John Mack, Edgar Mitchell and Joe Lewels. Amazing, powerful and provocative from beginning to end!

Guest host James Faulk from the Neon Galactic podcast interviews anthropologist and author Jack Hunter, a scientist with expertise in the paranormal and its crucial but virtually unknown connection to nature and its power. They cover Hunter’s background in anthropology and his experiences with spiritual phenomena, including his studies of spirituality and religion as they intersect with contemporary human societies and cultures. They explore the connection between anomalous experiences and storytelling, as well as the importance of a phenomenological approach in assessing other people’s experience of reality. They also discuss Hunter’s book, “Spirits, Gods, and Magic: An Introduction to the Anthropology of the Supernatural.”

We begin an occasional series concentrating on high strangeness encounters with famed CE5 witness Steve Neill.

Lucid dreams are among the most powerful sources of seeing the truth that exist. But why don’t we have them more often, and how can we control them when we do have them? Lucid Dreaming expert Von Braschler shares his vast knowledge of this phenomenon.

In this mind-expanding interview, legendary author and experiencer Whitley Strieber reveals never-before-shared insights about the future of humanity, the truth behind the visitors, and the hidden science of the soul. From his experiences with abduction to revelations about climate change, ancient Egyptian wisdom, and extraterrestrial beings, Whitley unpacks why what's coming is stranger than we've imagined. He dives deep into the loss of ancient knowledge, the importance of community, and how reconnecting with the richness of the soul may be key to surviving the challenges ahead.In this podcast, Whitley Strieber also opens up about the significance of the implant he carries—believed to enhance his creativity and spiritual connection. With powerful messages about self-discovery, leadership through kindness, and embracing innocence, this episode is a call to remember who we are and awaken to what's possible. Whitley Strieber is one of the most recognized and respected voices in the field of alien contact, spiritual evolution, and consciousness research. Best known as the author of the bestselling book Communion, Strieber has spent decades exploring the mysteries of the visitors and the multidimensional nature of reality. A pioneer in bridging science, mysticism, and personal experience, Whitley's work focuses on the evolution of the human soul, the rediscovery of ancient knowledge, and the empowerment of individuals during times of planetary crisis. Through his writing, interviews, and platform Unknown Country, he continues to challenge mainstream narratives and inspire seekers to awaken to the deeper truth of who we are.✦ Join Us at Contact in the Desert - Largest UFO Conference (May 29 – June 2, 2025) |

John Ramirez has been a friend of Whitley and a friend of Unknowncountry for a number of years. Like Jim Semivan, also CIA (ret.) what drew him to this site was the fact that he has had close encounter experiences of his own. Rather than discussing disclosure and official programs as he does on most shows, here he describes his powerful personal experiences with structured craft and many other things. He also speculates from his unique perspective about the possibility there have been highly intelligent beings here taking an interest in us, and probably manipulating our histories for a very long time. There is also a searching conversation about whether or not there are human-appearing beings from other worlds here on earth. This is a provocative and powerful show!

Dr. Kevin Knuth, physics professor from SUNY Albany and a leading researcher into the UFO phenomenon, explains how the study of UAPs needs to better meet this historical moment by abandoning old, forensic methods of investigation to adopt a new approach he and others have described in a recent scientific paper, “The New Science of Unidentified Aerospace-Undersea Phenomenon.”

This extremely unusual show starts with tech entrepreneur Mark Sims describing in the clearest possible terms what it is actually to share one’s body with another entity–not possession, but sharing, that is to say, the classic Communion experience. Then they move on to a discussion of a video the two of them made in 2012 during the Harmonic Convergence. In this video, Whitley describes a completely unique vision of disclosure. As he speaks, some sort of white substance gradually surrounds his face. So far, it has not been explained as a known phenomenon by any of the video experts we have consulted. Audio users are urged to view the last half of the video on YouTiube @whitleystrieberdreamland.

Most of us believe that OBEs are possible, but it’s only theoretical. Listen as OBE master Samantha Treasure takes us down the path into the reality of a powerful and important human capability that has been tragically suppressed in modern times. Let’s wake up to ourselves!

Is it REALLY possible that the dead are not dead, but simply in another state of being? Given his life with Anne, continuing now for 10 years after her death, and then last week’s stunner of a show with a guest who seems to have returned from the afterlife, Whitley has been on a quest to find a new approach to the whole issue. This show, with Oxford educated researcher Chris Carter, is part of that quest.

Mac Tonnies, who died in 2010 at the age of 35, was a genius. Simple as that. His 2010 book The Cryptoterrestrials (published shortly after his untimely death) reads, as Whitley and Mac’s friend Greg Bishop say in this show, like a book that should have been published in 2025. And maybe that’s what Mac wanted when an astonishing event happened at the 2025 Contact in the Desert gathering. In the show, Whitley explains the event, and for our video viewers, shows the ultra-high strangeness origin of the haunting image of Mac you can see above. Then Whitley and Greg respect what we believe to be a direct request from Mac, and provide an in-depth discussion of The Cryptoterrestrials.

In this edition of Dreamland, Whitley covers subjects such as the Jeffrey Epstein case, the danger of making AI your guru, and just why the emergence of non-human entities into our daily lives is going to be so hard to handle–not, perhaps for people who follow this subject, but what about the billions who know nothing about the UAP phenomenon, let alone have ever even entertained the idea that aliens may one day walk among us.

Renowned British paranormal researcher Andy Thomas joins Whitley for an in depth discussion of just what is happening in the world of the strange. Over the past 50 years, what we think of as the paranormal has become more and more a part of life, to the point that, as we move into the next few years, what was once considered impossible is going to come seem ordinary. Along with the "regularization" of the paranormal is going to come UAP disclosure and a growing awareness that what we now think of as extreme strangeness is actually the real world, and what we now consider ordinary is so limited that it is a kind of illusion.

We’re so used to claims of something big happening in the near future turning out to be wrong that we hardly notice them anymore. But what happens if one turns out to be right? If nonhumans appear suddenly, the consequences will be at least chaotic, and possibly even catastrophic.

This amazing, important and prophetic Dreamland featuring the great Jim Marrs (1943-2017) originally ran on September 4, 2010. For July 4, 2025 we reprise it with a commentary from Whitley Strieber that brings it frighteningly up to date. In 2010, Jim published a devastating book called The Trillion Dollar Conspiracy, and you will never forget the information you will get from this fiery, impassioned interview about it. Listen as Jim lays it out: there are no real political parties. It's all an illusion. And worse, the people waiting in the wings to replace the incumbents are at least as bad and probably worse. Why? The reason is simple: as Jim points out, Prince Philip, one of the leaders of the global establishment said, if he could be reincarnated after he died, he would want to come back as a deadly virus that would solve the population problem. And who is that problem? Not the folks in the limousines, you can be sure. YOU are the problem, and you need to take action to save yourselves and your children. Listen and find out not only what's wrong, but what we can do to save ourselves from an elite that is out of touch, out of control and, frankly, just plain out to lunch. Jim's website is JimMarrs.com.

In this show Whitley reminds us that we live in a prison of materialism. But there is so much more, and Simon Bown has written a book that can convince even the most intense skeptic that consciousness does not begin and end in the brain, that life has meaning and beauty and importance, and we are part of a great cycle of consciousness that is worth living in and participating in

Dr. Bernard Beitman is among the world's leading authorities on coincidences, or synchronicities, how they affect our lives and how we can make them work for us. Above all, it's a matter of NOTICING, and in this show Bernie tells us just how he does that and how it has enabled him to follow an enviably rich and productive life plan. Anne Strieber used to say that synchronicities mean that "we are on our soul plan." So, how do we find that thread and how do we keep following it? Listen as Bernie tells how noticing and making use of coincidences has enriched his life. Learn more about Bernie's work at Coincider. com. To get Meaningful Coincidences, click here.

On his 40th birthday, June 13, 1985, Whitley Strieber was six months away from an event that would change his life and ultimately also change the world. A little over a year after his December, 26, 1985 close encounter and abduction, he published Communion, which has turned out to be the book that started a process of contact with an unknown intelligence he calls "the visitors," and which has played an important role in leading the way to eventual acceptance of their presence and a new future for mankind as a cosmic species. Now it's June 13, 2025, 40 years later, and he has given his life to this effort. Here, he looks back on the occasion of his 80th birthday to the high points of his long life in close encounter, and forward into the future of the human interaction with our visitors. He also tells some truly hilarious stories from his childhood, and some profound ones, and reveals for the first time some of the truly explosive things he has come to know.

Imagine being greeted in the dead of night by a small alien creature, running toward your bed.  This disturbing experience set author Whitley Strieber on a dark and devastating path that culminated in the publishing of 1987's Communion.  Strieber's life changed on the night of December 26, 1985 – and he has spent the last forty years trying to sort out exactly what happened. When Richard Hatem first stumbled upon the book Communion, he refused to pick it up.  But after two years of post-USC Film School misery, he suddenly found dark solace within the story of Strieber and his strange encounters.  As Richard struggles to find his writing voice, the story of Strieber's frightening journey begins to resonate in strange ways.  And when Richard and his best friend Matt Reeves start working on the script that will one day become the Steven Segal movie Under Siege 2: Dark Territory – he learns that sometimes, friendship, humor and terrifying books can be the key to everything.  Join Richard as he navigates the rough waters of screenwriting, alien abduction – and tries to figure out how to make the great film Die Hard even greater (as if that were possible).

In this episode, we wrap up the last bit of Strieber, before turning our attention to John Mack, a celebrated and respected psychiatrist who, late in his career, turned his attention to investigating, and then advocating for alien abductions. We learn why John Mack became obsessed, and how his friends, colleagues, and especially the vaunted institution he worked for tried to deal with this pillar of the psychiatric establishment embracing woo-woo nonsense.

The Uranita Book is among the most powerful of modern spiritual texts. Like A Course in Miracles, Isis Unveiled and All and Everything, it has developed a devoted following. But is it, with its embrace of controversial beliefs such as eugenics and its discredited scientific ideas, really worth our time? In this provocative show, Urantia expert Dr. Sioux Oliva tells us about the truly amazing way the Urantia Book came about, and what can we get from it of value. What needs to be overl00ked? The other of these texts all also contain scientific theories that have been proven false. But does that make them worthless as well? And why, if they are indeed messages from on high, is the science in them flawed? This provocative edition of Dreamland opens a door into some genuine wonders that are well worth exploring.

Disclosure always seems to be just around the corner. Promises of epic announcements come and go. The defense industry uses its stooges in Congress to derail potent bills. A major player makes an obvious mistake in front of the whole world. And one group continues to be ignored by everybody: the experiencers.

Whitley’s close encounter life has been extremely active in recent months. As long as it keeps up, he is going to present occasional shows like this one, where he talks about what is happening to him (and sometimes to friends of his as well) Some of the material he discusses here is truly incredible, to the extent that it suggests that a door is opening for mankind into an entirely new experience of being alive.

New Paradigm Institute Chief Counsel Danny Sheehan, a former Jesuit and founder of the Christic Institute, offers his considered opinion about how Pope Leo will treat UFO disclosure and how the Catholic Church will react to disclosure and a possible alien presence.

In this absolute stunner of a show Whitley interviews Elvis expert Miguel Conner about Elvis as a brilliant, deeply informed and powerful master of the occult. Few people outside of his inner circle knew this side of Elvis's life, which began when a blue light hovered over the family's small cottage as he was being born. This most popular of singer and a true cultural revolutionary was not only a good and generous man, he was also a well read and deeply informed esotericist, in search of his own meaning. Tormented both by the isolation his celebrity brought him and his longing to reunite with his twin who had died in childbirth, he gradually drifted into heavy drug use and his tragic death at the age of just 42.

Eric Nanstiel's strange and powerful story needs to be listened to carefully. He represents a whole cohort of people who are just beginning to report their experiences publicly. His complex lifetime experience is as revealing as it is unforgettable. From a childhood experience with an orb to unexpectedly healing another child who was dying to a series of adult experiences that include familiar and disturbing things like semen removal to suspicions that they may have tampered with their own biology so extensively that they can no longer host souls. He says, "I think it's a very slow, calculated invasion" of mankind on the deepest possible level. Don't miss this powerful and provocative edition of Dreamland!

In this episode of Dreamland, guest host Kelly Chase (Cosmosis, The UFO Rabbit Hole) sits down with researcher Elliott Hauser, following their meeting at the Archives of the Impossible conference. Elliott had spoken on a panel about a groundbreaking metadata experiencer study involving the Strieber Letters and the John Mack Archives—a project at the intersection of technology, archival ethics, and the anomalous. Elliott, an Assistant Professor of Information Studies at UT Austin, brings a unique lens to experiencer research. His work focuses on how information systems shape our understanding of reality, and he's currently Co-Lead of Living and Working With Robots, a transdisciplinary project studying human-robot interaction in real-world settings. Together, Kelly and Elliott explore the complexities of responsibly structuring data from highly personal experiencer accounts, the possibility of open-source phenomenological research, and what robotic experiments might tell us about the nature of non-human intelligences—whether created by us or encountered unexpectedly.
