Breaking the Silence, with Steve Neill
Stories of Encounters with Non-Human Intelligence

I went back and forth on how to post this article, in the context of another -because there are many elements to it, or on its own and focusing mostly into the project itself. In the end I settled on this ( ie: the latter ) because the people behind this project, Steve Neill and Mary Cacciapaglia, are looking for others to come forward and tell their stories on camera. They are potentially putting together a documentary on the subject of what we generally conceptualize as extraterrestrial encounters, UFO/UAP sightings and other anomalous activity; there may be those of you who pass through here who may want to get involved. For those shy of the camera, you can write into them as well, share your experiencer story. They read and record these to upload on their youtube. They are a senior couple now in their 70s. I will leave links to where you can find them below.

Steve Neill is a lifelong experiencer of the contact phenomenon, he is a visual effects artist who has produced makeup effects and creature effects for film and television, including :: Star Trek, Ghostbusters, Fright Night and more. He is also a famous Hollywood gorilla-man, creature actor and puppeteer with many television and film credits. He has built props and models for many films. He creates CGI. His studio is SNG Studio & Gallery in Ventura, California.

The way I came to find Steve and this new project he is working on began in the dream state. While inquiring into the matter of building my own service and platform into a sustainable framework it was suggested from within that I go out and ask three other people, or groups of people how I could help them with their projects. I found this to be brilliant. I could feel the energy of it, the magic in the energy, and how it really could work. I also spend so much time alone, increasingly more since the 2021 event, that I would enjoy the adventure of some road tripping out to engage with others. The very next day, as synchronicity would have it, a WordPress blog I follow, Conscious Living and Wendy’s Coffeehouse ( link ) posted an article featuring a podcast she had done with Steve. In the podcast I learned he was looking for people to come tell their stories. I thought, “that’s easy! I could do that!” Ventura is just a few hours drive from San Diego, and I could spend a day in the Los Angeles area with my closest friend in the world on the way.

I spent a couple weeks outlining my almost 60 years of experience ( my contact experiences are not a mere few ) and condensed it down to roughly 30-40 minutes. I had to choose among which experiences I would highlight, there are simply too many to tell them all in this amount of time. I was further tasked, when arriving in Ventura, to keep my story to just 20 minutes, and to start at the end, rather than the way I had it outlined. If I wasn’t nervous enough already -I knew I was going to begin going into some challenging aspects of my experience -I now had the super bonus challenge. I had to decide on a dime which parts of what I had planned to say to leave out and which to leave in. Not easy, to say the least with a story like mine.

I had no idea how I was going to do this, I had made simple cue cards for myself to keep on track, but now that was blown and I had to content myself with winging it the best I could. I am no stranger to winging it, it is just that I really wanted to present the story, for the first time ever in a more complete fashion along a timeline. So that it would make sense by the time the story arrived at the anomaly of the work with the crystals. Which is complex to understand, and few do. But this was not to be the way of it, so I took a deep breath, spread the printed photos of the beings out on the table in front of me, and I was ON. The film was rolling.

I will say by way of a description that this all broke open for me when I moved from Las Vegas to Los Angeles in 2005. It is where and how my Spiritual journey ultimately climaxed. I had moved there to study more closely with a yoga teacher named Erich Schiffmann, who prioritized mediation in his teaching. What happened with me I understand is not the usual experience of your everyday yoga practitioner, but I was deep into my disciplines and from day 1 in this life there was a certain gravity pulling me into spectrums beyond the normal. This, now, began to escalate.

In my meditations and other practices I could always feel something at my back. It was like my whole back body was open. Never the front ( which opens to the world ), this was clear to anyone who ever knew me, – but my back body ( which opens to spirit ) was wide open. I began cognizing this more when I moved to Los Angeles and it was not long before, in my pranayama practice I began discovering a doorway, right there at the bottom of the breath.

My meditations were growing to be extremely long. It was not uncommon to go into them for as long as 3 hours. I began to observe peculiarities in the practice, like seeming to be wide awake, but unable to hear sounds I knew to be in the room and surrounding environment- like the ticking of the second hand on the clock. I began noticing more regularly that I was unable to locate myself in the room, which turned out to be caused by the incidence of me bi-locating and tri-locating. In 2009 my whole world broke open. Or broke apart, depending on how you may look at this. I endured a painful 3 years of nightly kundalini processes. Began steadily going out of body. My central nervous system went into shock. None of this could be stopped. I became an experiencer of regular, ongoing contact -and this contact activated a dormant spiritual skill I now work with. More is about to happen now. I feel it impeding into me even as I type these words. 

Breaking the Silence

I drove up to Ventura, CA to be filmed for Steve Neill’s show on March 3, 2024. I have blogged and written articles on my experiences for the past 15 years but I have never told the story, nor elements of it that I go into here. There are aspects of what I have experienced over the years that I have not wanted to focus on, or go into at any length. It is right now, though, for me to begin. There is emotion that has to be processed in order to move forward, in my service, my skill(s), and my life. It would appear I am ready. I had to leave out most of the story due to time, but what I did say gives a general overview. I will tell the full story on my own at some point soon.

If you have the time to listen, first, thank you -and, second, if you would, please leave a comment on the video for Steve and Mary, who truly do work so hard on this new project of theirs. They genuinely welcome and appreciate your feedback.
