The Living Force
I just finished reading a trilogy of books by Philip Imbrogno: Interdimensional Universe, Ultraterrestrial Contact, and Files From the Edge; descriptions below:
In a general sense, the books are above average but not necessarily amazing -- they include some good original case studies on a variety of High Strangeness phenomena, and in many ways these are similar to what can be found in many other books on the same topics. What really makes them stand out, however, is that Imbrogno embeds them in a framework of hyperdimensionality, and this is the real reason to read them -- it gives a good taste of what UFO and High Strangeness research could look like if other researchers were willing to entertain this as an explanatory hypothesis, and it brings his work close to that of John Keel (whom he mentions as an influence) in a way that most other books in this genre are not. Among other things, it allows him to tie things like Chupacabras and Bigfoot-like creatures into the UFO phenomenon, where most researchers will treat these separately and fail to examine them together.
Imbrogno has co-authored a couple of other books which may also be good: Contact of the 5th Kind and Celtic Mysteries, and two forthcoming co-authored books include The Vengeful Djinn and Portals: Doorways to Another Dimension. I'm particularly interested in the book on the Djinn, since this is a pet subject of Imbrogno's, and he understands them, as well as Native American tricksters, to be hyperdimensional baddies close to what we would probably consider to be 4D STS. It puts an interesting spin on this session excerpt:
And speaking of session excerpts, Imbrogno was asked about briefly here (I assume this was in regard to Interdimensional Universe):
Finally, one nice thing about the last two books of the three described here is that he puts some statistics in the end based on his case files -- including the fact that the most common times for High Strangeness events to occur are in October, right after the new and full moon phases, and around 3:00 am in the morning.
Interdimensional Universe said:Over the course of his thirty years of investigation into UFOs, including his own field research, photographic evidence, and meticulously compiled case studies, Philip Imbrogno has provided fascinating new insight into paranormal phenomena. In this book, he reveals for the first time the detailed findings of prominent paranormal experts as well as his own firsthand experiences. Using the latest quantum theories, Imbrogno sheds new light on classic UFO cases, government cover-ups, and the hidden connections between UFOs and other unexplained phenomena-from crop circles and animal mutilations to angels and jinn (or genies). Imbrogno's insider knowledge spans the very early UFO reports to present-day sightings. He personally investigated four of the best-known UFO flaps of the modern era—Hudson Valley, Phoenix lights, the Belgium sightings, and the Gulf Breeze Florida sightings—and shares information never released before, including photographic evidence that something very unusual is taking place on planet Earth.
Ultraterrestrial Contact said:Ultraterrestrial Contact investigates the most extreme and bizarre UFO reports—the cases that most UFO investigators are afraid to tackle—and presents a radical new quantum approach to understanding the contact phenomenon.
When Philip Imbrogno collaborated with famed UFO researcher Dr. J. Allen Hynek on Night Siege, Dr. Hynek requested that the more sensational cases of “high strangeness”—claims of contact with not only alien intelligence, but also demons, djinn, and otherdimensional beings—remain unpublished. Hynek thought the reports would detract from the credibility of the entire extraterrestrial investigation field. This book reveals, for the first time, the details of these controversial reports and presents Imbrogno’s startling scientific conclusions from his thirty years of research into the alien contact phenomenon.
Files From the Edge said:For more than thirty years, paranormal expert and scientist Philip Imbrogno has investigated—or been witness to—amazing phenomena that push the limits of reality. In Files From the Edge, Imbrogno presents the most shocking cases of his career, complete with eyewitness reports and never-before-released photographs.
This scientific investigation into the bizarre paranormal realm of high strangeness features never-before-published, meticulously documented research on the weirdest of the weird—abductions, encounters, and sightings of Bigfoot, sea serpents, and the blood-sucking Chupacabra. Imbrogno examines reports of poltergeists, alien creatures, humanoids, spook lights, ghost voices, earth spirits, and djinn. Using the latest quantum theory, he offers a scientific analysis of how these phantoms of time and space might materialize in our three-dimensional world. Many of the topics covered in this book have been virtually unpublished—until now.
In a general sense, the books are above average but not necessarily amazing -- they include some good original case studies on a variety of High Strangeness phenomena, and in many ways these are similar to what can be found in many other books on the same topics. What really makes them stand out, however, is that Imbrogno embeds them in a framework of hyperdimensionality, and this is the real reason to read them -- it gives a good taste of what UFO and High Strangeness research could look like if other researchers were willing to entertain this as an explanatory hypothesis, and it brings his work close to that of John Keel (whom he mentions as an influence) in a way that most other books in this genre are not. Among other things, it allows him to tie things like Chupacabras and Bigfoot-like creatures into the UFO phenomenon, where most researchers will treat these separately and fail to examine them together.

I'm particularly interested in the book on the Djinn, since this is a pet subject of Imbrogno's, and he understands them, as well as Native American tricksters, to be hyperdimensional baddies close to what we would probably consider to be 4D STS. It puts an interesting spin on this session excerpt:
November 19 said:Q: (Bubbles) Is it possible to find a genie anywhere on this planet? One that grants wishes.
A: Sure.
Q: (Bubbles) How?
A: Sweat.
And speaking of session excerpts, Imbrogno was asked about briefly here (I assume this was in regard to Interdimensional Universe):
July 18 said:Q: (L) Okay, we want to ask about this Donestra named in the Imbrogno book?
A: Symbolic moniker. So is Solarion.
Q: (L) What is the source of this contact with this guy Dean Fagerstrom?
A: Source is partially 5th density, partially 4th density.
Q: (L) Is he really channeling Franz Liszt?
A: No. Mental imprint from hyperspace.
Q: (L) What was this device that came into his room that floated in front of his face and made the sound?
A: 4th density imprinting device.
Q: (L) What was it imprinting?
A: Knowledge.
Q: (L) Well, I would like to play Franz Liszt! Why haven’t we had something like this?
A: You do not get to choose the nature of interaction with 4th density STS! Unless of course hamsters, chirpy little birds in cages and sweet, sad, dependent doggie “friends” get to choose the nature of their interactions with you!
Q: (L) So, you are comparing Mr. Dean Fagerstrom to a hamster, a bird, or a doggie?
A: Why not? It is the same thing.
Q: (L) And, he seems to be very obedient!
(T) So, they are just jerking him and other people around through him.
A: Yes.
Q: (L) Give the doggies a biscuit!
(T) So, where is my holodeck?
A: Ask for a holodeck and you might get an electrostatic brain splicer job instead.
Q: (L) Maybe that is what a holodeck is? Is that a clue?
A: No.
Q: (L) Well, I tried. Okay, another thing that Imbrogno noted was that they graphed the UFO sightings in this area, and what they found was that they occurred in these places over and over again. So, the guy goes out and investigates the sites and found, more often than not, these standing stones or stone chambers that have been connected to the ancient Celts. Now, this relates to my work with tracking the bloodlines in a way. The remark was made that dancing could charge the stones. But, some of these chambers are sometimes so small. My idea is that they are doorways.
A: Okay.
Q: (L) Well, there was a considerable series of sightings of these black boomerang type craft. Are these stones markers of doorways between densities?
A: Windows.
Q: (L) Do these windows open and close arbitrarily?
A: Electrical storm.
Q: (L) Can they be opened and closed by deliberate, engineered factors?
A: Yes.
Q: (L) What is the connection between the Celts and these flying black boomerangs?
A: None.
Q: (L) Then why is it that the Celts seem to have been the ones who erected these stones, and the stones and chambers seem to be connected with the black boomerangs?
A: If you build a house, then someone comes along and installs a 220 volt plug in it, what connection do you have with the clothes dryer?
Q: (T) Two different things. You build a house, somebody comes along and installs an improvement and uses it in another way.
A: Crystals make density and dimensional windows open from “time to time” thus making the oblivious quite obvious.
Q: (L) Are the craft always there and the crystalline structure of the stone causes the windows to open and make them visible?
A: If certain factors mitigate...
Finally, one nice thing about the last two books of the three described here is that he puts some statistics in the end based on his case files -- including the fact that the most common times for High Strangeness events to occur are in October, right after the new and full moon phases, and around 3:00 am in the morning.
