The Integratron by day



_______________



On August 15th 2009, we were privileged to project our images onto the historic "Integratron".

Located in Landers, California, this unusual building has become an iconic relic.  It documents one man's devotion to controlling one of the great mysteries of our very existence, as humans, here on planet Earth!  Controlling the "forces of life", itself!   Now, the intrigue of the mystery goes on in everyone who experiences this incredible "machine".

The event that brought us to this amazing place was a benefit organized to raise funds for the Mojave Desert Land Trust .  This environmentally driven group is responsible for acquiring land and putting it into trusts that protect it for the enjoyment of future generations. They support dark skies and care for our fragile planet.

We thank everyone for making the event possible and giving us the chance to be part of it all! 

The backdrop behind the night's event was the annual Perseid Meteor Showers.  Though, not many were seen, our images of the night sky softly lit the scene with colorful views of our beautiful universe.

 It was a warm night in the Desert.  The Milky Way glistened above us, though visibility hampered somewhat by smoke from Santa Barbara wildfires filtering in to our desert skies.  Even so, we were able to pull off another winning night with great images despite atmospheric clarity and breezy conditions.

Overall, we definitely received some great comments from the crowd of over 300 people attending this special event.  Everyone was excited to see the images that were projected onto the surface of the geodesic dome.  A first in the history of it's existence, the deep sky images were beautifully framed by the Integratron.  In fact, the views were so cool that we were blown away, as well!

This fascinating and cosmically influenced building has amazing sound influencing mechanics.  Outside it was bathed in cosmic light amplified by our telescopes, while inside, attendee's were treated to a soothing sound bath that has become a famous feature of the building.  It's hyperbolic dome creating a phenomenal experience that can only be described as "soulfully stirring"!

The history of the Giant Rock Airport, it's connection to the Integratron and it's creator, George Van Tassel with the help of alien abductors,is an interesting read and well worth the time.
