Field is also a child of the 90s so clubbing and dance music looms large, and in his book he talks of clubbing as a kind of pilgrimage: “A journey that takes us out of the confines of ordinary society and our everyday lives, enabling us to experience a collective joy in the temporary community.” UFOs, UAP's, non-human intelligence, whatever we might call it — I didn’t before but now I think it exists," Motskin told Netflix. "It could be non-human intelligence from far away, or from the past or future, or even us from the future. But I believe ‘the phenomenon’, as it’s called, has been around for a long time."

Our Take: The other cases examined by Encounters include a 1994 alien sighting in Zimbabwe, a close encounter at a school in Wales, and reports of lights seen over the Fukushima nuclear power plant after the 2011 disaster there. From the queue outside to the dancefloor itself, the experience is communal, joyous. “In these darkened rooms, as we move together, we are teaching ourselves how not to be afraid of one another,” he writes. “Any really good dancefloor is an empathy machine – a place where anonymous people of every possible kind can find a shared rhythm, a collective effervescence.”

Word History

Earlier this month, a UFO researcher sparked a fervor when he appeared during Mexico's first ever UFO hearing to present what he alleged were the mummified bodies of ancient aliens, a claim that has been disputed by scientists. A deeply felt, optimistic take on culture and contemporary life, and the small possibilities for change and transforming human interaction that it can contain if we’re open to its offers.’ Tim Etchells, artist

Directed by Yon Motskin, each episode of the series produced by Stephen Spielberg's Amblin Television, Boardwalk Pictures and Vice Studios explores a separate report of a mass sighting in a different part of the world.What Shows Will It Remind You Of? There have been man series that talk about people’s encounters with unexplained phenomena. In this case, Encounters has the feel of a modern-day In Search Of…, mainly because of the doubt that accompanies people’s accounts of their experiences. Field points to the ways in which we exist online, how we are pushed into digital spaces to consume more of what we already have and meet people only like ourselves: “Our attention is held in this very limited, narrow way.” Even headphones, another ubiquitous design with pernicious consequences, become in effect a “do not disturb” sign hanging from our ears.
