DOLPHIN EMBASSY
30TH PARALLEL PROJECT - THE ARCHAEOLOGY OF POSSIBILITIES
30° North - is the route of round-the-world journey of the nomadic Dolphin Embassy, touring the edge of the habitual world to rediscover the purpose of human existence, and reconnect the human beings with themselves and their lives.
a zone of our planet where most ancient civilizations originated. It is the latitude of the major sacred centers of humanity
the main habitat of most of the known species of dolphins and whales.
the circle where the most famous natural sites, places of geomagnetic and other anomalies, as well as the largest reserves of endemic fauna and flora are to be found.
Such a concentration of unique manmade landmarks and natural phenomena along the same latitude is unmatched and remains unexplained to this day.
The 30th Parallel - Archaeology of Possibilities project is the first ever attempt to integrate all three existent ways of learning about the world: science, mysticism and art.
It is a scientific investigation based on the most recent discoveries about the make-up of the Universe and Consciousness, and it is meant to be an experimental study of their interaction.
It is a creative project: establishing a new Mythos of the World and Man as constant sources of rebirth for each other.
It is a spiritual practice, just as any activity based on the observation of a reality that lies beyond materialistic paradigms.
The archaeology of possibilities is a rescue operation. It is about salvaging from under the debris of dividedness and helplessness all-powerful love, life and meaning.
It is a combination of a scientific expedition and a pilgrimage of magi, a treasure-hunting quest and a save-the-world thriller.
The phenomenon of the 30th Parallel remains a mystery.
Insofar as the network of the biggest spiritual and cultural centres of humanity that stretch out along the 30th parallel cannot be explained by mere coincidence or the unity of cultures of the indigenous peoples who lived there (they belonged to different cultures), the assumption is that in the distant past there was a certain group of people or groups of people who shared an important common bond. Their position among the local peoples was that of outsiders as they came from somewhere else, yet they exerted an influence on the indigenous population.
Memories of the "semi-divine" strangers who came from overseas have survived in the epics, myths and legends of a wide variety of peoples that live along the 30th parallel, including Egypt, Sumer, India and China. In many countries, they were called The Seven Sages ("Abgallu" in Sumer and "Saptarishi" in India, among others)...

All answers are where we are. But in order to find them, you have to venture out and turn around – to get an alternative point of view, a chance to look inside from the outside for the first time. We have completed our round-the-world journey together with the planet – exactly within an astronomical year.
When we set out for the journey called “Archaeology of Possibilities”, we hoped to find the algorithm of happiness and joy, as well as a universal way of heeling ailments, an antidote, an elixir of life. To unearth answers to eternal questions. To find lost practices of interaction with the world, in hope that they have survived to this day. And yes, they have survived, and represent the treasure of our civilization. But following them blindly is nothing more than hypocrisy. The world is changing. Ancient practices do not work, not because they are lost, but because they are old and the world is new. It continues to create itself and evolve every minute. The physics of the world change accordingly.
