Is it possible to receive a copy of the original version with Dick Allgire explaining his drawings?
I second this. And have seen other requests elsewhere, in the past. Why was it 'disappeared'?
To those who don't know what the OP is referring to, the original Atlantis project weas done in the good old days with the venerable old crew of Dick Allgire and Daz Smith. It was good. Inexplicably, Courtney later had his 'new', hand-raised team do the exact same project, and 'erased' the original, acting as if replacing it with the one done by the new team was some kind of 'triumph'. The part that didn't make sense, obviously, was the erasure of the original, which with all the triumphant talk on Courtney's part, was not given a logical justification. I mean, the results weren't even in discord. It kind of reminded me of when a divorced man with a child he has custody over, remarries a younger woman, and has another child, and then sends the older child from the first marriage to live with their mother. (The "children" in this analogy representing the respective projects.)
To my knowledge, it's the only complete and published Farsight RV project which has been fully 'disappeared' by Farsight--or anyone. Even the 9/11 vids remain, despite Farsight mind-blowingly having been somehow sued by a, um, high-level guy in the military--over an unnamed, all-but stick-figure drawing of a guy, from a totally blind RV session, which he thought resembled him too much! There was an out-of-court settlement over that (it should've been dismissed) which seems to me to involve not publicly mentioning the case after settlement (but the rest of us who still remember, can!). Yet we can't see the original Atlantis video?? Huh?
Why can't the original be seen as complementary and corroborating? Isn't it 'the more, the merrier' with RV data, and number of viewers? How many (video) Farsight projects have had 5-6 viewers? I've never seen a satisfying (or any) explanation on this from Farsight. I doubt there's any legal issue with the original RV'ers, as their other stuff seemed to remain. Something doesn't sit right here.
Maybe it will eventually be resolved, like how Farsight used to go WAY out of its way to avoid RV'ing aliens/non-terrestrials (due to a certain farsight Board member who used to be employed by the CIA)... Obviously, they got over that one (around the early 2010s?), and never looked back. But it seems this is taking way too long already to being resolved, if it's really not in the paywall archives (I'm new here). It's weird that this is still one of the first requests I see, once I gained access.
Farsight, just republish it already. Or at minimum, provide a public/free, logical, bespoke video explanation for its erasure, which fully makes sense!
I have sent a message through Vimeo's support to Courtney Brown to purchase a copy of the original version and to date I have not received a response from anyone. Thank You for your comment.🙂
