Hi everyone,
Hope this update finds you all well.
Brand New Blog!
Crop Circles & Sound Bubbles
At long last Karen's blog is back! This one examines the relationship between some crop circle designs and the idea of sound bubbles. The West Woods & Overton Down formations are investigated...
Extract...
"Anyone fortunate enough to hear Dr John Stuart Reid's presentation at the Summer Crop Circle Lectures this summer will have a quiet smirk with me at the subtitle to this blog. Dr Reid is the UK's leading sound scientist and he gave an erudite and action packed talk at the conference that included the audience playing with balloons and a live demonstration of a Chladni plate at work. His talk was both informative and fun, and was delivered by a man gifted with an effortless knowledge of his subject matter and great teaching skills to boot.
The relationship between shape and sound is one that has fascinated me for many years. I first read about it back in 1996/97. By chance, as these things often happen, I was given a book by a very dear friend of mine, the book was called 'Serpent in the Sky' by author John Anthony West. The book is an exploration of the work of the enigmatic R. A. Schwaller de Lubicz, who spent over 15 years studying the architecture of the Temple of Luxor in Egypt. Through his meticulous work he was able to build a picture of ancient Egyptian society that was as radical as it was at odds with conventional thought. Part of that picture was that the ancients understood only too well the relationship between sound and shape and that they, in fact, encoded this knowledge into their temples in order that those visiting them were subtly effected by the buildings and inspired to greater vibration - or states of consciousness...."

The new 2011 Crop Circle Photo Set contains (58 x) 7 × 5 inch (18 x 13 cm) full colour, glossy photographic prints. This set contains not only a stunning selection of overhead shots, but also images of many of the crop formations set in the glorious English landscape. Details about each circle are shown on the reverse of each print, including date, location and crop type. The 2011 Crop Circle Photo Set comes in attractive gold gift-box packaging making it an ideal Christmas or birthday present. This set also makes a great archive of the season, or something to share with friends, use for your own research, for contemplation, or display.
We are also including a FREE Photo-DVD inside each box. Each DVD contains a collection of images from the 2011 season, with details of date, location, displayed on each image. The DVD is ideal for Power-point presentations or for use on your PC or MAC. These sets are often used as research aids.
The 2011 season was a slow starter with more simplistic patterns occurring earlier in the year. However as the summer progressed so did the crop circle designs, getting ever more complex as we approached the harvest. Formations that are included in this package are: The early oilseed rape beauties at Silbury Hill and Hannington, baffling barley circles at West Kennet, Hackpen Hill and Barbury Castle, to the challenge of the 'pipe smoking alien and the serotonin molecule at Oliver's Castle, to the transcendence of the fifth dimensional cube at Jubilee Plantation. Also included in this photo set are the only images available of the tremendous formation at Temple Balsall in the Midlands. With images only been shown of this formation at a crop circle event for only a few seconds, the formation was then cloaked in a veil of secrecy. National security was the explanation given for its brief appearance, before it was hidden away! Still to this day, images from elsewhere are not available of this crop circle. We took the long flight to photograph this formation so that everyone would have the opportunity to see it!

2. Flight Fund Appeal 2012
We continue to need financial help to continue our flying. We will now be working towards costs for the 2012 season.
Keeping up with all the circles as they happen has been a struggle this year. Increased costs have hit us hard.
We realise that the financial climate is having an effect on a lot of you too, but if anyone can help by making a donation no matter how small to our flight fund, or by making a purchase from our online store it would help us enormously.
Without your urgent help and support we will not be able to continue.
We deeply appreciate all your donations and purchases - without you we just couldn't continue...
THANK-YOU!
Donate!
