The Falcon Has Landed....

 

Over three years and three thousand miles in the making. From the archives of Hoover to Carlisle Barracks, I looked high and low for everything I could find on the subjects explored here. Behavior modification, data mining, psychological warfare, psychotronics, predictive modeling, life science.... the more I researched, the more evident it became that the whole of modern science had been harnessed to craft a globe-spanning counterinsurgency campaign. Phoenix and Condor, much like MK-ULTRA and ARTICHOKE, are simply nodes in a far more ambitious program.  

Did the war come home? Do we really need to ask that in 2023? 

More pertinent is how does it manifest. Left or right, traps were left everywhere across a variety of "alternative" cultures and movements. Birchers, hippies, Ufologists, New Agers, sovereign citizens and whistleblowers were a part of the illusion, as was Hollywood and the "underground" press. Was there ever a true counterculture? 

And more importantly, what dark agenda lies behind this counterinsurgency? The hall of mirrors shall finally shatter like reality itself. Start the journey now...

Paperbacks are available here.

The world is getting weirder.

Since 2000, the reality we all know and love has gone the way of the Dodo bird. And what has emerged in its place is more Philip K. Dick and Harlequinade by the day. Various theories have been put forward to explain this state of affairs --Simulation, the Mandela effect, even suggestions the world really did end in 2000, or 2012, or 2020...

Monotheistic religions proclaim the end of the world, as is their wont. New Age gurus speak of a new consciousness. Atheists claim it's all meaningless. All have an echo of truth, but none satisfy.

S. William Snider (alias "Recluse"), host of The Farm podcast and author of A Special Relationship: Trump, Epstein and the Secret History of the Anglo-American Establishment, unknowingly embarked upon a three-year-plus odyssey to understand the times we're confronted with. What began as an investigation into the QAnon operation gradually morphed into a centuries-spanning exploration of "The Art" --the practice of shaping reality.

Since the onset of the Westaphalian era, groups as diverse as the Rosicrucians, Surrealists, Forteans, Discordians, and various occultists have developed the Art into a science. But as the modern era set in, a new player took notice: the national security state.

Throughout the twentieth century, the soldiers, spies and operators of the Soviet Union and the United States embarked upon a competition to weaponize culture and spirituality, the likes of which humanity had not witnessed since Antiquity. Only this time with the aid and support of modern science. In the US alone, a host of bizarre and brutal projects such as ARTICHOKE, MK-ULTRA, Pandora, Camelot and Cambridge were launched with a purpose of predicting and controlling human behavior unimaginable in prior eras. This laid the foundation for a globe-spanning counterinsurgency operation envisioned by one of the most colorful and occulted operators these United State have ever witnessed. Book I is his story and the blood-stained legacy he has bestowed upon humanity.
