Crop
Circles
(English translation to come!)
(Norwegian origin. article)
by Terje
Toftenes,
Norwegian Crop Circle Group.
The producer
of the video film
"Crop Circles - crossovers from
another dimention..."
(translation to come)
Tre siders artikkel, som presiserer at fordi om noen kornsirkler er laget
av mennesker, så betyr ikke det at alle er det.
Toftenes tar et oppgjør med våre forsøk på bortforklaringer, og peker på at vår rasjonelle hjerne helst ønsker å finne
realistiske løsninger på et fenomen som ikke passer inn i vårt
fysiske, materielle verdensbilde. Han prøver også å forklare hvorfor
media og myndigheter ønsker å bortforklare ulike para-normale fenomener, ved
bl.a. å vise til militær avmakt i det britiske forsvaret overfor objekter (ufo)
som
"invaderer luftrommet" og tilsynelatende etterlater seg mystiske avtrykk i åkrene.
"Fenomenet sees på radar, både fly og helikoptere jager det, de måler det, scanner det, og de registrerer strålingen fra kornsirklene" - men kan intet
gjøre. "De flyr fra oss med en utrolig akselerasjon, og gjør 90 graders
svinger i vanvittig hastighet", sier tidligere offiser.
Men i stedet for å føle oss truet, mener
Toftenes at fenomenet kanskje har en annen hensikt: Kornsirklene inviterer
oss til å våkne, slik at vi langsomt kan venne oss til tanken på at vi
ikke er alene i universet. De bare ligger der.... - som en hjelp til sakte å integrere et nytt paradigme, en ny forståelse av det kosmos vi
lever i.

Repportasje fra Eva-Marie brekkestøs foredrag på Varatun Gård ved Stavanger. Arr: Varatun og UFO-Rogaland. Journalistens gir en seriøs og "to the point" gjengivelse av kvelden og foredraget, og omtaler bl.a. intrikat nedlagt korn, mulig sammenheng med tidligere oldtidsmonumenter, tidsperspektivet de dannes på, tydelig intelligent styrte lysende kuler og indikasjoner på at de kan kommuniseres med, medias forsøk på bortforklaring til tross for vitenskapelig dokumentasjon på ekthet, etc. En flott artikkel, av en journalist som har "skjønt det".

Radioselskapet er et aktualitets- og reportasjeprogram som går på lufta daglig mellom kl. 16:00 og 17:00.

Eva-Marie Brekkestø var invitert som gjest på NRKs Frokost-TV i anledning
utgivelsen av sin nye bok KORNSIRKLER - Verdens vakreste
mysterium. Boken er den første boken om kornsirkler skrevet på
et skandinavisk språk. Brekkestø fortalte litt om kornsirklene, samt den
mer enn 12 år lange forskningsinnsatsen som bekrefter at vi har med et
reelt fenomen å gjøre. Hun kom kort inn på noen av de forklaringsteoriene
som hittil foreligger, uten å favorisere noen av dem. Det ble vist et kort
videoinnslag av kornsirkler filmet fra luft og bakkenivå, samt et filmkutt
av lysende kuler som svever over kornåkeren, og tilsynelatende lager selve
kornsirkelen. Flere filmlaboratorier har analysert den kontroversielle
filmen, men har ikke funnet tegn på forfalskning. Snarere motsatt.

Intervju med Eva-Marie Brekkestø fra Norsk Kornsirkelgruppe, i forbindelse med hennes utgivelse av boken KORNSIRKLER - Verdens vakreste mysterium.
Programlederen er tydelig imponert over hvor flotte og geometrisk perfekte mange av sirklene er, og programmet formidler godt det faktum at kornsirkelfenomenet er adskillig mer storslagent og komplekst enn de fleste mennesker er klar over. Det fremgår at det fortsatt dreier seg om et mysterium - vi kjenner ikke verken opphav eller årsak. Dog vet vi litt om hvordan de oppstår, dvs. at bl.a. mikrobølger ser ut til å være involvert. Brekkestø peker også på muligheten av at "jordiske krefter" kan være medvirkende, i tillegg til vår egen bevissthet. Norsk Kornsirkelgruppe har til nå kartlagt 23 kornsirkler i Norge.

An interview with Eva-Marie Brekkestø, making a quick briefing of the crop circle phenomenon, starting by the first known written sources in Assen, The Netherlands, in 1590. We also learn of her very first discovery of a norwegian crop circle in a crop field at Kolsås i 1999, the same field in which the interview is now taken place. The interviewer's hint to "X-files inspired hoaxers" as an possible explanation to the mystery, is calmly turned down by Eva-Marie, by referring to the last scientific findings of melted, magnetic iron particles in crop circle soils, and to approx. 50 eye witnesses claiming to have literally seen crop circles form - by ligth balls (plasma vortices?), etc. Eva-Marie Brekkestø instead asks: "What if somebody out there is trying to communicate with us? ...What if they are trying to wake us up, ...make us wonder....?"

A growing interest in crop circles
by: Marit Arnesen Veimo
Short article concerning the Norwegian Crop Circle Group's participation on the Alternative Exhibition on Stiklestad (in the middle of Norway) October 24-26th 2003. The article claims that Eva-Marie Brekkestø was one of the most highly requested lecturers at the fair this year, and she was even asked to hold 2 extra lectures on the subject. In 2001 two crop circles appeared in this area. It's likely to believe that this has triggered the interest in the crop circle phenomenon in this region, it's said. The author emphasizes that this is an ancient phenomenon, that 10.000 crop circles are registered worldwide, that 50 persons claims to have seen crop circles form, and that it is commonly assumed that i.g. 30% of the crop circles are false (manmaid).

Sent from heaven
- mystical crop circles!!
by: Eli Sund
Double page comprehensive and informative feature article about crop circles, supplemented by a separate section of pure facts on the subject. The article is partly based on Eva-Marie Brekkestø's comments, and focuses at the global crop circle situation this year. Emphasized is the increasing crop circle activity in other countries, i.g. Italy and USA. The article considers different explanations to the phenomenon, and quotes a farmer's experience as he sees a crop circle form. A neutral article, that presents (the unbelievable?) facts in a very straight forward way.
