Field Guide Review

By Gregon

I’ve posted a review to the site of The Field Guide: The Art, History and Philosophy of Crop Circle Making, by Rob Irving and John Lundberg (edited by Mark Pilkington). The Field Guide is the first crop circle book which gives the story from the side of the ‘circlemakers’, so it’s a necessary read for anyone interested in the ‘phenomenon’. You can find out more about the book at the Strange Attractor website, including a few sample pages from the book. Sure to be controversial this one.

    But I don’t know else how to contact you Greg. No facility on DG anymore for this.

    I can’t help telling you that I just installed an audiophile quality sound system in my car. Yikes, It nearly bankrupted me. But once it was in and running, all I wanted to do was whip out my Tool cd’s. Unbelievable how they sound on a real quality system. All sorts of subtleties come out you never noticed before.

    As a professional musician (and heavy metal hater, BTW) who worked many years playing in bands and clubs, etc., Tool stuns, humbles, scares, and shakes me to the core. What an incredible bunch of creative geniuses. Thanks for introducing me to them a few years back. Sorry to slip this in here like this, delete if you want, just wanted to say thanks to you. I’m having a damn good music day today.

    Greg, enjoyed your review of this book. But still puzzled. Do they really address all the arguments for non-human origin that the CC researchers forward?

    From what I recall, these guys did indeed “recreate” a Mandlebrot set for the BBC that was crap compared to the original one. Not even close in terms of symmetry and beauty. And then, because the field was harvested the next day, it could not be tested for things such as the infrared signature often found in the soil, the genetic changes in the stalk, etc etc.

    Could you please give us one or two good tidbits from this book that helped you decide human creation is the best explanation?
