Jennifer Collins is a physicist at the University of Erech and a contact of Clarence Gage’s. She is one of the heads of the particle research project there, and one of the first to discover the changes in the fine structure constant.
Laura McAllen is former archivist for House Caladharas and is now a university professor, and the mother of Dana McAllen. She is also a long time explorer…and Julia Well’s fifth grade teacher.
Cool. I don’t know if you’re doing it all on purpose, but even in metaphor and by analogy, you are very close to mirroring what I consider to be the real history of the world…which doesn’t match our traditional institutional version except by accident.
Morien Institute, Graham Hancock, Sitchin, Velikovsky, OOPARTS, India’s Vedic literature, ancient Kings lists…plus, the inevitable origins of the Celts. Combine it all with artificial intelligence, Pibram’s Holographic Principle and Everett’s Many World’s Hypothesis and what have you, throw in a few monoliths (see Bosnian pyramids, for one example) – stir liberally with ancient godly pantheons, Interpret it all through Joseph Campbell’s monomyth, and you’ve got a helluva story to tell.
Toss in some liberal helpings of Charles Fort, F. Paul Wilson, Ambrose Bierce, Jay Robert Nash. Season with a lot of the writings of the Lovecraft Circle (and extra points for anyone who catches the Lovecraft reference in University, Part 1)
The thing that always amazes me is that, from an archeological perspective, things keep on getting pushed further back. Organized agriculture, craftsmanship, metal working, cities, we keep on finding things that push the starting dates of these things a little bit farther back all of the time.
Given that kind of thing, it gives you a lot of room to play with things. Plus, if you consider the fact that a lot of the physical artifacts of modern civilization wouldn’t survive all that long without people maintaining them, you can get in depth with the idea of previous cultures and civilizations.
The hardest part of it all is keeping track of the latest in scientific advancements. Trust me, that has gotten crazy at times. This article could have been a pain if I hadn’t have seen it. http://www.technologyreview.com/blog/arxiv/23292/
I’ve got a very smart bunch of readers, I know one of them would have mentioned this if I had missed it and blown the science 😉
I caught it right away but I have ready Lovecraft’s body of work several times through. R. Carter Memorial Hall: ‘The Statement of Randolph Carter’ by H. P. Lovecraft. Written in 1919 and published in May 1920 in The Vagrant.
