This circle was first publicly reported on the evening of Sunday July the 15th, but had apparently appeared the day before on the 14th. It is located in a field close to the village of Kingweston, near Somerton in Somerset. This is very close to Glastonbury. The circle is in a field of mature wheat and measures approximately 350ft in diameter.

As this circle is clearly 12-fold in nature (the central circle is split into 12, and then has 12 emanating arms), it has drawn the obvious interpretation of being some kind of clock. However, if it is a clock, it seems there is no real way to tell the time as each of the 12 arms are the same. So what is the function/purpose/meaning of a clock that doesn’t tell the time?

It has been over ten years since we first began the Summer Crop Circle Lectures and during that time the crop circle phenomenon, while remaining constant, has changed enormously. The way we think about the subject and interact with the circles has moved on and so has the way we do our conference, with emphasis on community and the sharing of ideas and experiences.

Our Ethos: You’ll find our conference is a little less about entertainment and more about community and collegiality. It’s an event where the crop circles are not only enjoyed and celebrated, but where people can come and join in the conversation, share their experiences and participate in a more inclusive and collaborative way. As important as the circles themselves are the people who are drawn to them, often full of experiences and stories, insight and wisdom. It is they (in addition to our speakers) that make up the ‘body conference’. As always, our speakers will be drawn from those who have actually spent time in the fields and those who are actively engaged in the endeavour to better understand the phenomenon. Our speakers will not just be published authors, or professional speakers, but people who genuinely have something interesting and progressive to say about the phenomenon – some will be updating us about where their research has taken them in the last year, or over several years.
