Ufoetry

UFOetry [1] is an organization in Los Angeles, California, United States, dedicated to educating the public about the UFO phenomena and its implications on society. It was formed in July 2004 by ufologist and MUFON member Joshua Poet. UFOetry presents their information as a UFO rock opera as opposed to the traditional lecture format. Their multimedia shows combine live music and theatrical performance to share the subject with audiences at UFO festivals and conferences. Through these means, UFOetry communicates its teachings to a newer, younger audience than those traditionally found at such conferences.

Mission

UFOetry's mission is to benefit the "greater good" of the community, society and the world, by spreading the word of the UFO phenomena, across the planet, using every form of media available.

The purpose of UFOetry is to tell the UFO story, through a UFO rock opera that uses of music, video, poetry, theatrical performance and storytelling, to bring a new perspective to UFO phenomena.

Why?

History is filled with stories of UFOs. From Christopher Columbus out at sea, to Roman Soldiers on watch. From sightings over Washington DC, to stories of crashed flying saucers, or secret bases in the desert, something is taking place. UFOetry believe it is a scientific event or perhaps a religious event.

History

UFOetry has been presenting its message to the world since mid-2004, taking them to UFO events in the continental United States. Some of these include: the Aztec UFO Symposium,[2] the Retro UFO Spaceship Convention [3][4][5] and the Roswell UFO Festival.[6]

UFOetry has been recognized by the Los Angeles music scene:

Joshua Poet has been a guest on X-Zone Radio [7] with Rob McConnell, UFO Files [8] with Jerry Pippin and Live From Roswell [9] with Guy Malone, who refers to their music as "The music of ufology!" Several Music Videos [10] are available online.

Highlights

In 2006 nuclear physicist and UFOlogist, Stanton Friedman introduced UFOetry for their first performance in Aztec, New Mexico. Later that year during their performance in front of the Integratron, a sighting occurred in which six orange orbs were seen in the night sky by several observers.

In 2008 as one of the festival headliners, UFOetry gave ten performances over the three-day festival, which included a live spot on the CBS Early Edition,[11] as well as international press in 8 countries.[12][13]
