In this episode of Cosmosis, Kelly and Jay sit down with someone who has become a true kindred spirit on their path: Daniel Noah, co-founder of SpectreVision, filmmaker, experiencer, and the creative force behind the new High Strangeness comic series.

This conversation moves through the deep waters where creativity, anomalous experience, and vocation meet. Daniel opens up about his lifelong relationship with horror and the supernatural, his unexpected awakening as an experiencer, and how that realization reshaped both his inner world and his creative life. He shares what it meant to come out publicly as an experiencer, the responsibility he now feels to others on the path, and why art—and vulnerability—are central to making sense of the anomalous.

Together, Kelly, Jay, and Daniel explore:

How SpectreVision grew from an indie genre studio into a multiformat home for creators working at the edges of experience

Why paranormal phenomena resist traditional narrative structure—and what that means for artists

The surprising synchronicities behind Daniel’s work on High Strangeness

Creativity as a channel for contact, transmission, and the “central source” John Keel wrote about

The emotional reality of being a public experiencer, and the mission that quietly forms around those called into this work

Daniel’s reflections on SpectreVision’s newest film, Rabbit Trap, and its unsettling, initiatory portrait of fairy lore
You’ll also hear about Kelly’s essay on synchronicity for issue #3 of High Strangeness, the story that changed the trajectory of her entire life, and how collaborative creativity has opened new doors for all three of them.

This is one of our most intimate and expansive conversations—an exploration of what happens when artists stop compartmentalizing the anomalous and instead allow it to shape their work, their worldview, and their calling.
