FORTFEST '97

Ambassador Ballroom, Ramada Inn of Bethesda, MD
November 8th & 9th, 1997

SATURDAY:

Lecture Program, 11:00 AM - 6:00 PM
  • DR. MARIO PAZZAGLINI , clinical psychologist, with a slide lecture based on his book, Symbolic Messages, a comprehensive study of alien writing based on his interest in symbolic images from ancient ideograms (Egyptian hieroglyphs, Churchward's Lemuria), magical scripts (Enochian alphabet Joseph Smith's Golden Plates) to present day UFO artifacts.

  • WILLIAM R. CORLISS , prolific Fortean writer and editor of The Sourcebook Project (a highly lauded series on a wide range of natural phenomena from geological and astronomical anomalies to ancient man) on his latest release, Biologic Anomalies of Birds.

  • WORLD PREMIERE OF JOHN KEEL'S , HOME MOVIES, with a live, acerbic narration from the master of Forteana. Shot on location in Egypt at the dawn of the millennium, "Around The World In Eighty Years" features amazing, never-been-seen before footage!

  • PATRICK HARPUR , author of Daimonic Reality, Serpent's Circle, Rapture and former editor of Mercurius, A Modern Alchemical Journal. Daimonic Reality explores the Old Knowledge, Hermeticism, Neo-Platonism, the works of William Blake, W.B. Yeats and Carl Jung to question whether lights in the sky, Bigfoot, mysterious angelic beings and ETs are part of a suprareality. Harpur explores the unseen universe linking mankind to the gods and examines both Tricksters and Divine Guides.

  • MICHAEL A. CREMO, a researcher specializing in the history and philosophy of science and co-author with Dr. Richard L. Thompson of Forbidden Archaeology , on his ground-breaking and controversial work on prehistory showing modern man existed millions of years ago. His book is a call for a change in the rigid mind-set of a scientific community that either suppressed, ignored or forgot an unexpectedly large number of anomalous facts.
