I came across this video from 5 years ago by UnchartedX. It's actually been
posted before but it's relevant here so I'm going to post it again. It caught my attention because it pictured what looked like a djed tower. (28:20 minutes)
The experiment uses a machine (more on it later), invented by a guy named John Riley, which apparently creates an
electromagnetic induction field. The Egyptian interviewees (Yousef (a stonecarver) and Harun) suspected that electromagnetic energy was somehow involved with the pyramids of Egypt so they bought the device to test stones that are found there like basalt, quartzite, white calcite and two types of limestone. In the video they test limestone (mohs: 3-4), granite (mohs:6-7) and basalt (mohs: 6). They put each of the stone samples on the platform and then bring a piece of aluminum wire close to the stone.
@4:44- The first stone was the limestone pillar which doubled as the central column in their djed pillar creation. The arc to the wire was very strong and was actually the strongest of the three. Limestone is by far the most used building medium. Yousef says that electricity alone would not be inducted through stone but that electromagnetism would.
@5:26- Basalt is tried next with a strong arc but not as strong as the limestone.
@5:44- Lastly the pink granite is tried but the arc is feeble.
Yousef says that, in his opinion, the stones were specifically chosen to accomplish something. "Nobody just goes to different quarries, hundreds of kilometres far, just to build something symbolic."
@6:51- They reassemble their djed pillar on the device and use the aluminum wire again with basically the same results, though Ben (interviewer) comments that the arc from the basalt is stronger this time with the granite being even weaker. (I personally couldn't really tell from the video.)
Yousef retells of his surprise that the granite was such a poor conductor. Harun then chimes in that alabaster and marble are not conductive at all.
@9:13- Harun has placed his feet on the device, holds the limestone pillar in his lap, and gives the cameraman the aluminum wire. The device is turned on and an arc is produced when the wire is brought in close. The cameraman reacts because he gets a shock every time it arcs. Ben playfully tells him to take his shoes off and do it again. He does and his shock is stronger. Ben tries it and reacts to the shock as well. Harun then says, "If you touch it directly to the skin, it hurts." I am reminded of the line from the Nov. 9, 1994 session, "People have been "zapped" at stonehenge."
From 10:18 to 13:58, Ben gives his opinion as to what is happening from an engineer's perspective and feels this experiment is similar to the experiments done with a
Van der Graaff generator and is surprised to see different behaviours from stone which he likens to what happens with semiconductors. He affirms that this was a very interesting experiment and needs further study.
From 13:59 to 19:46, Ben goes on a tangent of 'perspective' and gets into Tesla and Visiv Technologies, of which he seems to be a bit starry-eyed. I didn't care for his apology at the end of it. I'm pretty sure that he has no knowledge of the electric universe theory, at least when this video was made. I wrote a note about Viziv at the end.
Yousef relates a theory (water erosion) from
Dr. Robert Schoch saying that because the limestone of the pyramids was "eroded after machining" and that the granite that was butted up against the limestone showed machining equal to the erosion pattern of the limestone, that the outer granite was added later. But then he reveals a theory of his own. It was noticed that when granite or basalt was butted up against limestone, a certain erosion took place that made basalt begin to flake and granite to look more like coral (hence the theory of erosion by water). Yousef proposes the idea that, outside of a "plasma event", the limestone inducted currents of energy that caused the deterioration along the limestone/granite and limestone/basalt seams, but did not affect the sides of the granite and basalt exposed to the sun, which were in excellent shape. It made me think of something like
galvanic or electrolytic corrosion was taking place only with stone instead of metal.
Now, during the beginning of this discussion, Harun had brought in a piece of white marble (although Harun first calls it quartzite (which is not quartz, btw)) and placed it on the device. Even when the wire was dragged across the rock, absolutely nothing happened. No arc at all. "That is why marble is not in the combination of the pyramid structure," Yousef jokes.
A bit hard to follow sometimes but a very interesting video, I thought.
About the machine in the video (which is marketed to the 'natural healing' crowd), the
Lifestream Field Generator 100 (
Zero Point Research) is said to produce 500,000 volts. This device is no longer sold and is replaced by two similar models (the M200 and M300B/300C) which produce 1 million and 2.5 million volts of high potential, low current "radiant pulsed energy". (You know, during my time with this little research project I keep running into mentions of a 'pulse' in various ways.) There are several other models but the largest Model 400 "Consciousness" (oh brother! with the Eye of Horus on the side even)...
...starts looking like...
...or really any other megalithic single standing stone obelisk. Just as thought though (as new age cheesy as it is), are their hands up to show they feel some kind of radiating energy field, which may or may not have anything to do with just 'worshipping an idol'?
Lastly, at 15:11, I mentioned that Ben gets into Tesla and the Wardenclyffe Tower. He then compares that to another tower that was made much more recently by Viziv Technologies in northern Texas. The CEO of this company is
Brigadier General Michael W. Miller (US Air Force), a recipient of the
Legion of Merit and two
Bronze Oak Leaf Cluster awards for "Global War on Terrorism" (no specifics, but generalized as wars fighting extremists in Africa and the ME after 911). His mission is to "commercialize the
Zenneck surface wave" to "power the planet and bring light to the world."

As of Feb. 12, 2019 (the date of the article), Viziv has received $38.3 million in funding. "The founders and management have a deep Christian faith."
