Meaning Machines: Author Nick Cook on how Humans, UFOs and the Universe make meaning

from Dreamland · host And,If Studio

In this episode, author and journalist Nick Cook discusses his career as a journalist covering defense technologies, his newest book, and where his years of research into consciousness and the UFO phenomenon have led him for fundamental conclusions. Cook is the author of a classic in the UFO field, “The Hunt for Zero Point,” which probed the possibilities around anti-gravitic technology, limitless energy, government secrecy, and much else. His most recent project, “The Light Beyond The Mountains,” was serialized on his “Rogue Icons” substack.  By integrating the work of Donald Hoffman, Ingo Swann, Philip K. Dick, Robert Bigelow, Edgar Mitchell, Jacques Vallee, Garry Nolan, and many others, Cook arrives at some fundamental conclusions about the nature of reality, humanity, plasma, and the UFO.  To visit “Rogue Icons” and read more of Cook’s work: https://open.substack.com/pub/nickcook/p/uaps-buybacks-and-stewardship?r=1fir1&utm_medium=ios&shareImageVariant=overlay Learn more about your ad choices.
