Karin Austin -- Neon Galactic -- Episode 85

On this episode of Neon Galactic, we interview Karin Austin of Archives of the Impossible and the John Mack Institute about her experience at Sol this year, and her work to help make experiencer metadata accessible to researchers. Karin Austin is an experiencer who participated in John Mack’s research into the alien encounter phenomenon during the late 1990s. She later evolved into a role as his personal assistant. After John’s passing, she helped the Mack family with the closing of his estate and was directly responsible for preparing John’s home-based archives for storage She has spent the last years working to make the metadata available from Mack’s years of research, clinical sessions, and correspondence available for deeper study. We discuss how the subject of contact fits into the larger political dynamics of the United States, and how the messages long received by abductees and experiencers have been predicting a collapse. Are we upon that moment? How do we move forward as a topic under these social stressors? We also discuss how the nature of contact has changed over the years, and what that might mean.
