Mark Kohl spent his early career shaping stories from behind the camera—directing major productions, earning awards, and building a life that looked complete on the outside. But privately, he was fighting a decade-long battle with alcoholism that no amount of success could mask.He tried everything the traditional system told him to try:

Ten years of therapy, hundreds of AA meetings, five rehabs. But none of it reached the source. None of it created real change.Mark wasn’t seeking enlightenment. He was trying to survive. Everything shifted when he turned to natural psychedelics—ceremony-grade mushrooms, sound frequencies, intention, and ancient practices that touch the nervous system in ways modern methods rarely do. These weren’t escapes; they were gateways.

Tools that softened the trauma, broke old patterns, and helped rebuild a life from the inside out.For the first time, something worked.And with that awakening came a realization: The modern healing system is designed to manage dysfunction, not resolve it. People need tools that transform at the level of frequency—mind, body, identity, and consciousness.That realization became the blueprint for Frequency.

THE FREQUENCY ECOSYSTEM: Mark built Frequency not as a brand but as a new model of human healing—a system that blends ancient medicine, modern neuroscience, quantum principles, and real-world integration.

Today, Frequency includes:

Frequency Brand
Ceremony-grade psychedelic tools, sound-informed formulations, and nervous-system products designed for the mind, body, and subconscious to actually change.

Frequency House
A separate company and nature-based sanctuary in Topanga—created as a true home for healers, guides, and facilitators to bring clients, host events, and practice their modalities with intention.

Frequency TV (Coming Soon)
A conscious FAST channel sharing positive global storytelling, mystical-meets-scientific education, and original programming designed to elevate rather than numb.

The book shares evidence that the Anunnaki's influence extends beyond the realms of mythology and religion, shaping the very foundations of our understanding of reality, consciousness, and the nature of the self. By exploring the connections between the Anunnaki, shamanic practices, psychedelic experiences, and modern pursuits such as artificial intelligence and transhumanism, Anunnaki Revelation aims to trace the origins and trajectory of the transformative impact these gods had on the human experience.

• Who were the Anunnaki? Were they benevolent guides or malevolent manipulators, and what will the answer mean for our understanding of the nature of reality?
• Was the Anunnaki's wisdom transmitted to early civilizations, then preserved and passed down through secret societies and occult practices?
• Were psychedelics, shamanic practices, and altered states of consciousness used to communicate with the Anunnaki and other entities? Are they still?

Anunnaki Revelation examines the Anunnaki in a new light, as discarnate entities who played a crucial role in the development of human consciousness and civilization by communicating advanced knowledge to the leaders of a lost civilization.

Heather Lynn, PhD, is a historian of the human mind and author of The Anunnaki Connection, Evil Archaeology, and Baphomet Revealed. Heather holds degrees in archaeology, information technology, and history, as well as a doctorate in education from the University of New England. Her academic work concentrates on cognitive archaeology, consciousness, artificial intelligence, symbolism, iconography, and the exploration of myth and art through a Jungian conceptual framework.

Building upon the author’s previous research, An Inconvenient Theory expands upon the idea that multiple advanced civilizations existed during the last 130,000 years. Drawing inspiration from Charles Hapgood’s controversial crustal displacement theory, the author explores how shifts in Earth’s crust—not just plate tectonics or Milankovitch cycles—might explain glacial cycles, mass extinctions, and unexplained archaeological site alignments. Through detailed analysis of ancient site orientations, climate data, and geological processes, the book proposes a revised mechanism for pole shifts involving an interplay between mantle convection and tidal forces, the same forces that move Earth’s oceans. The work challenges mainstream geoscience and climate models, offering a bold, alternative view of Earth’s deep history and the cycles of civilization, catastrophe, and climate change.

Mark Carlotto has over forty years of experience in space-related applications involving remote sensing, mapping, image processing, pattern recognition, machine learning, and related technologies. He received a Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering from Carnegie-Mellon University in 1981 and has written over one hundred technical and scientific papers and nine books. He was an assistant adjunct professor at Boston University from 1981 to 1983 where he taught courses in computer architecture and image processing.Outside of his occupation in the aerospace industry, Dr. Carlotto’s journey as an independent scientist began in 1985 when he first learned of the infamous Face on Mars in a newspaper article. His first book The Martian Enigmas examines the Face and other unusual objects on the Red Planet first imaged by a Viking orbiter spacecraft in 1976. His research based on a method known as shape-from-shading to analyze the 3-D structure of the Face was included by Carl Sagan in his TV series Cosmos. Dr. Carlotto’s second book The Cydonia Controversy steps back from the science of the Mars investigation examining it within the context of the centuries-old search for life beyond Earth and its possible implications.His journey took an unexpected turn in 2003 when he got lost exploring the woods in a place called Dogtown – a deserted colonial settlement in the middle of Cape Ann – an island community north of Boston. There being no detailed maps of the area, he decided to map old roads and trails, stonewalls, cellar holes, and other features using newly emerging GPS technology. His next book The Dogtown Guide, a far cry from Mars, was a field guide and history of Dogtown that received a Preservation Award from the Gloucester Historical Commission in 2007. Relating history and landscape his next book, The Island Woods published in 2012 is a three-hundred-year-long spatial history of the forested interior of Cape Ann complementing other books written about Gloucester’s well-known maritime heritage. Combining maps and genealogy data, his third book in the series The Cellars Speak offers new insight into the early settlers who lived in the woods of Cape Ann hundreds of years ago.Another book written at this time Diary of a Serial App Developer is a tongue-in-cheek autobiography of a ten-year stint moonlighting as an early iPhone app developer.Dr. Carlotto’s collaboration in a study of astronomical alignments at a Native American ceremonial site published by the Massachusetts Archaeological Society in 2015 was an inkling of things to come. While planning a trip to Mexico a few years later he found the archaeological sites he hoped to visit were not aligned in any obvious way. Before Atlantis published in 2018, describes his discovery that these and other ancient sites across the world appear to have been aligned to previous locations of the North Pole, and virtue of their alignment could be tens of thousands to more than a hundred thousand years old.Completing a book started in the 1990s, Not of This World, released in 2021, examines historical UFO cases and recently disclosed reports of unidentified aerial phenomena (UAP). His analysis reveals that some UFOs/UAP are likely real, exceed known aerospace capabilities, appear to defy the laws of physics as they are currently understood, and might not be extraterrestrial in origin.Beyond Atlantis, his next book is the culmination of research into the lost civilizations of the world that began in Before Atlantis. Dr. Carlotto analyzes hundreds of ancient sites and proposes a new theory of ancient civilizations based on an extensive body of evidence that challenges conventional paradigms.His latest book, An Inconvenient Theory, which builds upon previous research, explores the idea of how shifts in Earth’s crust—not just plate tectonics or Milankovitch cycles—might explain glacial cycles, mass extinctions, and unexplained archaeological site alignments. Through detailed analysis of ancient site orientations, climate data, and geological processes, Dr. Carlotto proposes a revised mechanism for pole shifts involving an interplay between mantle convection and tidal forces, the same forces that move Earth’s oceans.

A modern continuation of the serious research into the infamous Face on Mars, which had been more than 20 years since books were written & put forth by authors & researchers alike to show and detail about its anomalous nature & its perceived evidence of extraterrestrial origin and intelligent design on the surface of Mars.

Despite all of the amazing details & facts presented by those authors & researchers to make a case for the Face being scientifically worthy for further discussion & continued visual research & study of the Face, NASA has claimed the Face of Cydonia has been successfully and scientifically debunked in 2007. The Face being claimed & officially asserted by NASA that it is only a natural object, with tricks of light & shadow showing no intelligent deliberateness regards to what is actually seen in image data. NASA had declared that the case for the Face was closed & was not willing or even interested to discuss the subject seriously, or investigate into the matter further.

Sadly, this official NASA position of denial has not been challenged by any of the previous researchers & authors, or any new ones ever since then, to show that not only is the Case for the Face still scientifically valuable for continued debate & continued study of image data we had back then to study, but the vast amount of image data that we do have now available to us, clearly shows that the Case for the Face is far from closed, nor is it close to being over!

Gary Leggiere — also known as The Mars Revealer — is an independent researcher and long-time investigator of the infamous Face on Mars. With over two decades of focused study, Gary has hosted radio shows, interviewed key anomaly researchers, and built one of the most extensive public archives dedicated to the topic.The Faces of Mars is his debut book — a culmination of decades spent challenging NASA’s claims and uncovering suppressed image data that may point to artificial structures on the Red Planet.Gary is the founder of The Martian Revelation show, where he continues to speak publicly on planetary anomalies, space mysteries, and the search for intelligent life beyond Earth.For interviews or inquiries, email: marsrevealer at gmail dot com
