The View Hole is a blogging project collaborating youtube clips and streaming documentaries which aim to highlight the current advancements and challenges faced by an ever evolving species, and an ever expanding 'Global Village.'

When we lived in tribes and villages over the horizon were secret lands and mysterious people never before seen, and as we ventured forth establishing connections with the rest of our species and our world, the horizons gave up their secrets, and our villages grew to nations.

Now, in this modern age; when what's beyond the horizon is already in our living rooms, on our tv screens and computer monitors, Something new begins.
We are no longer but a collection of nations, we are at a stage of transition, becoming what is termed a "Global Village"

The View Hole aims to shine a light on the challenges faced by the species at the heart of this cultural evolution. Man.

From the standard model of particle physics and global educational paradigms to sociological engineering and human evolution, The View Hole links to material which questions the form and function of modern science and society.

Thunderbolts of the Gods



Thunderbolts of the Gods


Accompanied blurb:
"The Thunderbolts Project calls into question not only countless modern scientific assumptions, but also the billions of dollars of big-science government and corporate funding that continues to preserve and entrench questionable theories – elevating them to the status of doctrine – while systematically excluding legitimate alternatives that threaten the status-quo. Alternatives that may represent the future of science."

Author's Note:
This documentary presents a lot of solutions to problems currently faced by the standard model, caused by conflict between observational cosmology and of course, the standard model. For details on these conflicts it's recommended one view the below documentary in precession to this one.

This documentary is best preceded by: Is everything we know about the universe wrong?

Is everything we know about the universe wrong?




Accompanied blurb:
"There’s something very odd going on in space – something that shouldn’t be possible. It is as though vast swathes of the universe are being hoovered up by a vast and unseen celestial vacuum cleaner. Sasha Kaslinsky, the scientist who discovered the phenomenon, is understandably nervous: ‘It left us quite unsettled and jittery’ he says, ‘because this is not something we planned to find’."

Authors Note:
This documentary looks at the conflicts between observational cosmology and the standard model, explains among other things 'inflation theory' and and traces some of the problems standard model faces, from moments before the 'big bang' to recent discoveries.

This documentary is best followed by: Thunderbolts of the Gods

Oliver The Chimp



Oliver The Chmip

Accompanied blurb:

In January 1976 news broke of a phenomenon. Pictures showed an upright bald ape called Oliver, who appeared to be a cross between a human and a chimpanzee; What scientists refer to as a humanzee.


Author's Note:
Warning: SPOILER ALERT
It is said that genetic mutations which prove successful are the stepping stones of evolution.
Que Oliver the chimp, walking upright as a result of, you guessed it, a genetic mutation.
This documentary raises the question, did a similar genetic mutation occur thousands of years ago and prove to be successful? Could homo-erectus come about as a result of this mutation?

Accompanied blurb:
Evolution is a term to define only one organism and that’s the self. The self is the universe, the self is the alpha and omega, god, and infinity, and that’s the only thing that evolves because we are all part of the self. Nothing goes through an evolutionary process alone or without direct benefit to the whole. So when you begin to think that there’s this controlling elite, this controlling hand behind the curtains leading the planet to destruction…


When you think the end is near, the apocalypse, Armageddon, and when you think we as a species are doomed, it is not they, it is you that brought this about, and for a very good reason. You are evolving. Stop blaming everybody and everything else. Quit panicking about global tyranny and natural disaster and pay attention, because the world is telling you something; it’s tell you exactly what is wrong with you and how to fix it.
(Excerpt from the film)

Zeitgeist: Addendum



Zeitgeist: Addendum

Accompanied blurb:

The second documentary film, Zeitgeist: Addendum, attempts to locate the root causes of this pervasive social corruption, while offering a solution.
This solution is not based not on politics, morality, laws, or any otherestablishment notions of human affairs, but rather on a modern, non-superstitious based understanding of what we are and how we align with nature, to which we are a part.
