June 27, 2003: The Hutchison Effect - John Hutchison

John Hutchison, a Canadian scientist, joins Art Bell to discuss the Hutchison Effect, zero-point energy, levitation, and jellification of metals after Linda Moulton Howe's crop-circle report. Linda details an extraordinary photograph from Montenegro, Italy, showing a sphere of light sending a beam into a field, captured by a teenager's cell phone camera. Witnesses in Belgium and Germany also report strange humming sounds and lights associated with new formations.

Hutchison describes the Hutchison Effect as a phenomenon involving the levitation of heavy objects, the jellification of metals, and apparent matter transmutation. He explains how his experiments with Tesla coils, RF generators, and electrostatic fields accidentally produced these effects, including floating cannonballs, metal bars twisting into knots, and objects embedding within solid materials. His lab was seized by the Canadian government after he declined a military contract.

Hutchison also discusses his zero-point energy power cells, small devices that produce a steady voltage indefinitely using ground-up metals and minerals charged with direct current. He connects his work to the Philadelphia Experiment, noting similarities in the electromagnetic equipment used, and shares his belief that forgotten technologies from the early days of radio hold keys to understanding free energy.
