Download or read book Alien Diaries 7 8 written by H. R. Giger and published by Patrick Frey Edition. This book was released on 2013 with total page 660 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: HR Giger worked in the Shepperton Studios near London from February to November 1978, creating the figures and sets for the film Alien (1979) directed by Ridley Scott. The film became an international success, earning Giger an Oscar. In the transcribed Alien Diaries, published here for the first time as a facsimile, HR Giger describes his work in the studios. He writes, sketches, and takes photographs with his Polaroid SX70. With brutal honesty, sarcasm and occasional despair, Giger describes what it is like working for the film industry and how he struggles against all odds be it the stinginess of producers or the sluggishness of his staff to see his designs become reality. The Alien Diaries (in German transcription with an English translation) show a little-known personal side of the artist HR Giger and offer an unusual, detailed glimpse into the making of a movie classic through the eyes of a Swiss artist. The book contains almost completely unpublished material, including drawings, Polaroids showing the monster coming to life, and several still shots from the plentiful film material that Giger took in Shepperton.

Download or read book The Diaries and Recollections of an Alien Abductee written by Hilary Porter and published by . This book was released on 2020-05-09 with total page 111 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hi, my name is Hilary Porter. I am vice chairman of B.E.A.M.S. - The British Earth and Aerial Mystery Society. In addition, I also provide a free Counseling service... having helped experiencers of the UFO and Alien phenomenon for at least 20 years.As far as I'm aware, no publication in our field of study holds ALL the necessary answers; truth be told, many volumes contain but a mere handful; however, I am confident that in my book, you will find more in the way of relevant, honest information, than any other work of its type.Hopefully, this will be appreciated by the more open-minded, unprejudiced thinker; those of us who are able to distinguish REAL pearls from synthetic... RESTRICTED knowledge from fake news.My writings address a host of hitherto unanswered questions about alien visitation - and provide a good deal of understanding about what it all means; thanks mainly to the 'greys'; these entities have shown me, (through some very bold methods of teaching), what I consider to be, the closest thing to smoking gun evidence, as anyone may ever get in this subject."The truth is this, rather than them being the manufactured product of some 'secret government/military concern' ... 'bio-robots', or any other nonsense we are being fed about them... the greys are multidimensional aliens... and they can freely pass through solid matter rather like ghosts; how else do you think they can get into people's bedrooms to abduct their victims, totally unseen by any other witnesses?"Along the way, I have learned some amazing things about their enigmatic realms, and their often, perplexing means of operation; but even with me, there were obvious limitations to what I was allowed to see; the suggestion is, having too much proof and awareness concerning the astral origins of our alien cousins, (who are possibly the creators of humankind), could be extremely dangerous for any of us; and so, keeping certain things secret may well be for our own good.The Diaries and Recollections of an Alien Abductee follow my numerous close encounters over the decades... along with those of other witnesses, all recorded in meticulous detail; it also comes complete with 29 very important links to some scarce documents, dossiers, sketches, video and photos.This book will surprise many; it is totally unlike anything ever published before!

It’s the year 2000 in New York City. For 12-year old Alyssa, a biracial Puerto Rican girl, this means all kinds of new challenges: splitting time between her dad's apartment in Manhattan and her mom's new place in Queens, navigating the ups and downs of middle school, harboring an epic crush on a new classmate, and figuring out how to be a "real" Puerto Rican. The only way to make sense of it all is to write and draw her thoughts and worries into her diary. Then life abruptly changes on September 11, 2001. After the Twin Towers fall and so many lives are lost, her concerns about gossip, crushes, and fashion feel distant and insignificant. Alyssa must find a new sense of self and purpose amidst all of the chaos, and find strength to move forward with hope.
