Reconstrucci贸n Forense: La reconstrucci贸n de un encuentro inexplicable.
Les comparto una de las secuencias in茅ditas del proceso de reconstrucci贸n morfol贸gica forense de los humanoides que, seg煤n el relato de los testigos, se encontraban al interior de la esfera del caso Contacto de otra Dimensi贸n.
Para realizar este trabajo contamos con el destacado ilustrador y artista 3D Ricardo Mu帽oz. Fueron cerca de cuatro meses de trabajo, durante los cuales me reun铆 en reiteradas ocasiones con los testigos, realizando croquis, tomando notas en mi bit谩cora y recopilando cada detalle que posteriormente fuimos traspasando a Ricardo para darle forma digitalmente.
No fue un proceso inmediato. Hubo que volver muchas veces sobre los mismos recuerdos, revisar detalles, corregir formas y contrastar las descripciones hasta conseguir una representaci贸n lo m谩s fiel posible a lo que ellos aseguraban haber observado aquella noche.
Y ah铆 ocurri贸 algo que me pareci贸 especialmente interesante.
Desde un comienzo, los testigos hab铆an definido a estos seres simplemente como “grises”. Sin embargo, cuando dejamos de lado esa etiqueta y comenzamos a profundizar en sus caracter铆sticas, nos encontramos con una morfolog铆a bastante alejada de la imagen cl谩sica del “alien铆gena gris” que todos tenemos incorporada por la ciencia ficci贸n y la cultura popular.
Hubiese sido muy f谩cil quedarnos con esa primera definici贸n y darla por resuelta. Pero justamente este caso me confirm贸 la importancia de no conformarse con el nombre que el testigo le pone a aquello que vio.
Cuando una persona se enfrenta a algo que no conoce, trata de explicarlo con las referencias que tiene. Si algo se parece a la imagen que conocemos de un “gris”, probablemente lo llamar谩 de esa manera, aunque al profundizar en su descripci贸n aparezcan caracter铆sticas completamente distintas.
Por eso creo que una parte fundamental del trabajo del investigador es volver al relato, preguntar nuevamente y tratar de separar lo que el testigo recuerda haber visto de la interpretaci贸n que hizo despu茅s para poder explicarlo.
En este caso, si nos hubi茅semos quedado solamente con la palabra “gris”, probablemente nunca habr铆amos llegado a la representaci贸n que finalmente obtuvimos.
Y ese es tambi茅n el mensaje que quisiera dejar a quienes est谩n comenzando a investigar estos fen贸menos: no quedarse con la primera etiqueta. Muchas veces, cuando uno profundiza en los peque帽os detalles del testimonio, el relato comienza a mostrar cosas que inicialmente hab铆an pasado inadvertidas.
Esta reconstrucci贸n fue precisamente un intento por llegar a ese nivel de detalle y acercarnos, con la mayor rigurosidad posible, a lo que los testigos aseguran haber visto aquella noche.

Forensic Reconstruction: Reconstructing an Unexplained Encounter
I’d like to share one of the previously unreleased sequences from the forensic morphological reconstruction of the humanoids that, according to the witnesses, were inside the sphere in the Contact from Another Dimension case.
For this work, we collaborated with renowned illustrator and 3D artist Ricardo Mu帽oz. The process took nearly four months, during which I met with the witnesses on numerous occasions, creating sketches, taking notes in my field journal, and gathering every detail we could. We then passed all of that information on to Ricardo so he could bring their descriptions to life digitally.
It was not an immediate process. We had to revisit the same memories many times, review details, adjust shapes and features, and compare the different descriptions until we achieved a representation that was as faithful as possible to what the witnesses said they had observed that night.
And that was when something particularly interesting emerged.
From the beginning, the witnesses had simply described these beings as “Greys.” However, once we set that label aside and began examining their actual characteristics in detail, we found a morphology that was quite different from the classic image of the “Grey alien” that has become so deeply embedded in our collective imagination through science fiction and popular culture.
It would have been very easy to accept that initial description and consider the matter settled. But this case reinforced for me how important it is not to simply accept the name a witness gives to something they have seen.
When someone encounters something unfamiliar, they naturally try to explain it using the references they already have. If something resembles what we commonly recognize as a “Grey,” they will probably describe it that way, even though a more detailed examination of their account may reveal very different characteristics.
That is why I believe a fundamental part of an investigator’s work is to return to the testimony, ask further questions, and try to distinguish between what the witness remembers seeing and the interpretation they later used to explain it.
In this case, if we had simply accepted the word “Grey,” we probably would never have arrived at the representation we ultimately obtained.
And that is also the message I would like to leave with those who are beginning to investigate these phenomena: don’t stop at the first label. Very often, when you begin examining the smallest details of a testimony, elements emerge that initially went unnoticed.
This reconstruction was precisely an attempt to reach that level of detail and to get as close as possible, with the greatest rigor we could achieve, to what the witnesses say they saw that night.
