The DistortionTheory offers a new and
revolutionary
point of view concerning close encounters with UFO and their alleged crews. In
order to do that, this theory has its own terminology to try to define
accurately some of the key concepts within the theory. Let´s review them to
enable a full understanding of their main principles:
EXTERNAL AGENT
This term defines the “operator” or
“entity” that interacts, under certain conditions, with the witness’ psyche in
order to “manufacture” a so called “UFO experience”. Probably none of the features
or actions that are displayed in their numerous manifestations have nothing to
do with its true appearance or purpose. The point of this “external agent” is
to make the observer believe through a complex holographic projection that they
are being witness of the landing of anextra-terrestrial spacecraft and the
disembarking of their crew members. But none of this is related to a factual
reality neither it has the quality of being persistent in our universe once the
experience is finished. Then, who is the External Agent? This External Agent
could be a parasitic entity which either feeds on human beliefs or needs human
interaction to survive. It’s very likely that the External Agent could be
behind of many myths and folklore in the history of mankind disguised under
many different manifestations. This camouflage can be identified as a skilful
and huge psychic manipulation, as some researchers claim, but it’s obvious that
some unconscious mental contents are at play and those are in sync with the
sociocultural and historical context at all levels: philosophy, technology,
art, etc…
 |
| Science fiction did not anticipate the content that later would be in UFO close encounters, simply is the source as the basis for their development. ( Illustration Buck Rogers. Mars Prince of Mars. 1930) |
It cannot be ruled out that the
External Agent is using latent beliefs within particular societies for its own
sake. The External Agent uses then subterfuges and deception constantly in its
interactions with human societies and doesn’t seem interested at all neither in
fostering any positive social changes nor making the attempt of influencing the
fate of mankind. Despite some messages that could point otherwise, the External
Agent has no real purpose to convey any scientific or philosophic message
beyond those already developed by man itself.
SHARED MENTAL CREATION
When the External Agent is in touch
or interacts with the witness’ psyche, an information transfer is made at an
unconscious level,that will be embodied within the experience in a distorted
way so the observer is not able to identify as self-made. Whatever is displayed
in front of the witness will be a by-product of the symbiosis between both
operators, the unknown entity and the human being, and it will be manifested as
a holographic projection. Therefore, most of the details and factors that are
part of a close encounter can be perfectly tracked down in the observer’s
psyche. The most evident and notorious elements nevertheless will be those unique
features (Such as traits from a humanoid or technical details from the craft)
that cannot be found in similar events.
DISTORTION
The information extracted
unconsciously from the witness is displayed and rearranged by the External
Agent in a distorted way so the observer will not be able to recognize it. The
source of this information can be very diferent: literature, TV, work, environment,
hobbies, etc…
All these conceptual resources will
be used to stage a projection where the witness will be actually convinced that
he’s observing, for instance, an UFO landing. This will be the explanation
behind why there are so many different types of “flying saucers” and “extra-terrestrials”.
The External Agent uses a very different range of sources to create those
experiences that their manifestations may vary wildly from one to another.
 |
After the interaction with the
witness’ psyche, the “external agent” obtains the essential information to
reproduce a holographic projection that will generate an illusoryenvironment
where a close encounter with UFO is re-enacted. This projection can be seen externally
by a third person but having an unknownpsychic foundation, the perception made
by other observer may vary from the one made by the main witness or even some
individuals will not be able to be aware of the event at all. The witness will
be able to interact with the projection as if he was within a full virtual
reality experiment.The witness will be able to touch and feel the elements of
the projection as if they were actually there.
EVANESCENT
MATTER
The External agent in some occasions
can grant to the “holographic projection” a fleeting and momentary material
quality in our own reality. Therefore, traces of a landing might appear in some
incidents and in some might not, regardless of the terrain conditions.
For instance, in Sangonera La Verde
(Murcia) on July 1st 1979 there was a report of an UFO landing. According to
several witness a giant humanoid was seen in the surroundings walking around
800 meters but only two footprints were found (One of them partial)
This evanescent matter would be able
to explain an array of anomalies linked to UFO close encounters such as:
1. UFO flying through
vegetation or power wires without making any noise or impact.
2. The randomness in the
traces left behind by UFO where in some cases there are obvious marks meanwhile
in others there is no evidence at all.
3. The lack of marks, trails
or footprints after a sizeable event has happened involving entities and
crafts.
4. The ability shown by
humanoids to go through walls or fences.
5. The reported silence that
goes along with close encounter events.
BASIC
ARCHETYPES
The External Agent displays in the
generated projections very defined behavioural patterns that can be easily
identified to facilitate the assimilation and development of these experiences.
Most close encounter events, despite their changing and external appearance,
display a very similar pattern. The so-called extra-terrestrials are usually
doing some of these three universal actions
1. Exploring the surroundings
2. Collecting samples
3. Repairing their
spacecraft.
All these three actions will match
with what we would expect from an interstellar human explorer visiting another
planet so they fulfil the mission of integrating distinctive human concepts
within supernatural experiences.
 |
On top of this, the eventual presence
of the witness always provokes a surprise reaction to the extra-terrestrials
that leads them to leave the place immediately due to the “unexpected” visit of
the observer. This farce is a deception with the purpose to manipulate the
witness reaction. If we would buy the idea that we had met by pure chance some
alien visitors that they don’t want to be seen, they would avoid populated areas
but invariably lot of close encounters are reported in areas with continuous
human presence such as roads, cities, villages, etc…
Another trait that is also very
common in the behaviour of these UFO crew-members is to dazzle witness with
devices that project a blinding light.
ONEIRIC
CREATIVITY/ THE “MUMBO-JUMBO” FACTOR
The process that leads to the
“holographic projection” is defined by the Distortion Theory as oneiric
creativity because the way it works is very similar to the patterns displayed
by human psyche meanwhile we dream. The unconscious contents of the witness are
rearranged and projected by the “External Agent” in a creative process, that we
can even label as artistic, that contains lot of the nonsensical elements that
we usually associate with our most vivid dreams. The distortion displayed
within one close encounter experience is very similar to the distortion that we
face when we dream.
This would help us to understand one
of the most puzzling issues that we find in Close Encounter: The Mumbo-Jumbo
Factor. All these nonsensical elements that we find in the UFO experiences
which so far they had served only to invalidate and reduce the credibility of
the UFO phenomenon in front of the public opinion.
Nevertheless, according to the
Distortion Theory this universal non-sense factor is simplified. The internal
mechanics behind the creation of these experiences have built-in and integrated
these nonsensical factors that actually they have their source in the witness
own subconscious.
Those absurd details then don’t have
any special or transcendental meaning beyond the remarked artistic/creative
value expressed in a holographic projection which introduces us to a dream-like
fiction in what concerns to its development and staging. Although the final
purpose of these interventions is still unknown to us.
