About Me
About Me
Professor Kane Winthrop is currently Co-Chairman of the Southwest Noumenal Society, and author of several published articles on Quantum Mechanics. Professor Winthrop received his MA in Particle Physics and his Doctorate in Condensed Matter at Withrow College in Massachusetts in the late 1980s. He received Honorable Mention in the 1992 Wertman Prize in physics for his work on interpreting the Copenhagen Theory of Quantum Mechanics. He and others later constructed a unique version of string theory which brought together a multi-dimensional world view with the Standard Model called “brane world.” In 1997, Professor Winthrop relocated in New Mexico and joined a regional chapter of the Noumenal Society, applying the rigors of scientific skepticism to a variety of unexplained phenomena. Professor Winthrop also helped to organize an annual meeting in Noumenal Events in the Southwestern United States, and built alliances between scientists, social scientists, artists and experts in the unexplained. He now contributes to several online journals, writing about paranormal history and practice around the world. He also maintains links with organizations in countries as diverse as China, United Kingdom, Argentina, Finland, Australia, Brazil and the Canada. He currently resides near Santa Fe, where he raises alpacas and Angora goats and studies local ayahuasca medicinal knowledge. |

If you have just stumbled upon this site and are wondering what is going on, then you've come to the right place! To be honest, I wish I had more answers myself but I suppose that is just the nature of mysteries. Here's how it began: Early in July of 2006, my website began to exhibit strange behavior – dropping offline for days at a time and pointing towards a countdown. When the countdown reached zero, the Oculus appeared – a floating sphere covered in unknown symbols. You can easily get to it by clicking the Visit the Oculus button on my right or by clicking this image: There's a small yellow hologram sphere orbiting the larger sphere which you can interact with by moving it with your mouse and clicking on it's blue-glowing symbols – the larger sphere opens and you find a puzzle inside. It's bizarre – these puzzles unlock a sequence that rushes through clouds with images all around. So far there is only speculating around what these images could mean, you can read about it in the Message Board area of my site. That's why I'm gathering a team of investigators to take a look at any future changes. I have come to realize that this is no accident, and I could use your help. If you register on the site with your email, I will notify you when major events take place. You also gain access to the discussions on this site – we're working together to find the truth about this, so everything we have learned so far is being collected there. Here's a list of the places we've discovered (so far!)
