View source for Esposito, Michael

<h2>Introduction</h2>
Michael Esposito is primarily an anomalous phenomena researcher associated with Electronic Voice Phenomena (EVP). He is best treated as ufology-adjacent: part of the wider paranormal research culture that overlaps with UFO communities but centers on different evidence types and traditions.

<h2>Background</h2>
Esposito’s public biography emphasizes communication theory interests and long-running involvement in paranormal investigations, especially those oriented around audio capture, noise analysis, and “instrumental transcommunication” ideas.

<h2>Ufology career</h2>
Not a core ufologist by the standard “UFO cases + aerial phenomena” definition. His relevance to UAPedia is as a neighboring figure whose work often travels in the same media circuits as UFO content.

<h2>Early work (Year–Year)</h2>
Early work is framed around building a practice: travel to active locations, experimenting with capture methods, and developing theories of signal, voice, and interpretation in alleged anomalous audio.

<h2>Prominence (Year–Year)</h2>
His prominence is mostly within niche paranormal and experimental-audio communities rather than mainstream ufology institutions.

<h2>Later work (Year–Year)</h2>
Later work includes continued releases and collaborations, reinforcing a hybrid identity: paranormal investigator + experimental audio artist.

<h2>Major contributions</h2>
Esposito’s main contribution is methodological within EVP: emphasizing repeated fieldwork, large-scale collections, and audio-as-archive, plus dissemination through experimental releases.

<h2>Notable cases</h2>
Esposito is more associated with sites and methods than with a single famous case. His “notable” outputs are often projects/records tied to locations.

<h2>Views and hypotheses</h2>
Typical EVP frameworks: anomalous voices as communicative artifacts, with debates about interpretation, pareidolia, and instrumentation.

<h2>Criticism and controversies (if notable)</h2>
EVP is widely criticized for susceptibility to false positives, subjective interpretation, and uncontrolled noise sources.

<h2>Media and influence</h2>
Influence is strongest in paranormal subcultures and experimental sound circles, with occasional crossover into broader “anomalies” media.

<h2>Selected works</h2>
Phantom Airwaves (project identity)
Selected EVP-themed recordings/releases

<h2>Legacy</h2>
Best understood as a specialist anomalist whose work illustrates how “UFO culture” sits within a larger ecosystem of anomaly-oriented media and belief communities.
