Did Time End in 2012? Timewave Zero... | Conspiracy Theories
Notes de l’épisode
Timewave Zero, Terence McKenna’s theory that time itself was speeding toward an end on December 21, 2012, drifts into a slow, eerie sleep story about what may have really happened that day.
In 1971, Terence McKenna went into the Colombian Amazon looking for the edge of reality. He came back convinced that time has a hidden shape: a wave built from the ancient I Ching, falling faster and faster toward a single moment. He named a date, December 21, 2012. The date came and went, and the world carried on.
Decades later, a small group of scientists in London, Tokyo and Bengaluru finds something in the data that shouldn’t exist. Archives disagree about events that happened only once. Clocks briefly lose step. A pattern in human history keeps tightening toward a point. And a quiet group in Geneva has been watching it all since the winter of 2012.
