Big Blend Radio: Calling all Earthlings Documentary

The documentary “Calling All Earthlings” explores the Integratron, a mid-century dome in the Mojave Desert that was created by one-time Howard Hughes confidante, George Van Tassel. Van Tassel claimed to have combined extraterrestrial guidance with the work of Nikola Tesla and other alternative scientists, to build an electromagnetic time machine he dubbed “The Integratron.” Was he deluded? Or could the dome actually break through the boundaries of space, time, and energy? 

Join Nancy J. Reid and Lisa D. Smith, the mother-daughter travel team and publishers of Big Blend Magazines, for Big Blend Radio with filmmaker Jonathan Berman who discusses his new documentary “Calling All Earthlings” that’s out now on VOD. An empathetic enquiry into an archetypical countercultural movement, the story is told by relatives, neighbors, skeptics, believers, scientists, healers, artists, and historians, including Dr. Kevin Starr, the preeminent historian of California; Eric Burdon, musician and area resident, and futurists JJ and Desiree Hurtak.

Featured music on the show is “Indrid Cold” from the album ‘Never Trust the Living’ by Johnny Mastro & Mama’s Boys. This episode was sponsored by the National Parks Arts Foundation who creates unique artist-in-residence programs in park units within the National Parks Service.
