Welcome to the Summer Crop Circle Lectures ...
Saturday 2nd & Sunday 3rd August 2008.
The Assembly Room, Town Hall, Devizes, Wilts, UK.
The Summer Crop Circle Lectures is an annual event at which a small, intimate assembly of researchers and enthusiasts from all over the world gather together each year, to share and debate the latest thinking and research on this enigmatic phenomenon. Our programme combines top national and international speakers, with exciting newcomers in an endeavour to provide an comprehensive snap-shot of the current thinking on the subject.
We offer two whole days of lectures, tours and events. Tours/Events for 2008 include a crop circle coach tour (visit two circles on the ground with researcher and guide Dan Vidler), an a tour of Avebury Stone circle (by renowned author and researcher Robin Heath), and a night-time Crop Circle Vigil experience to be held out in the Wiltshire countryside.
The conference culminates with three fantastic events. Firstly, a live debate between speakers and the audience. Called THE BIG DEBATE, (not a crop circle forum, or question and answer session) the summer crop circle lectures facilitates a unique platform where the wider issues of the phenomenon can be discussed between the researchers themselves and then in participation with the audience, in anticipation that the crop circle debate can be actively moved forward. Secondly, an exclusive film of the years’ latest crop circles from air and ground, by renowned circles photographer Steve Alexander - definitely not to be missed! Finally, there is a speakers supper on Sunday evening for those who just don't want the weekend to end and want to continue to talk over a meal late into the night.
Established in 2005, the conference is organised and hosted by well-known crop circle researchers Karen Alexander, Michael Glickman and Steve Alexander, who bring their considerable knowledge and experience of the crop circle subject to the running of this annual event.
The Summer Lectures are held in the beautiful and elegant Assembly Room, Town Hall, Devizes, Wiltshire, UK and is timed to coincide with the peak of crop circle activity in the UK - late July/early August.
In addition to our lecture programme there will be all the latest photographs, books and DVDs, many by our speakers - don't forget to bring a pen for that signed copy! Many of these items are not widely available elsewhere.
We have been described as ‘the crop circle master class’ and the ‘researchers conference’!
Early booking is essential, this event regularly sells out weeks in advance and we have a limited capacity.
We look forward to welcoming you ...
