Decades before they happened, Benjamin Solari Paravicini sketched events eerily resembling 9/11, space travel, and lab-grown babies. This podcast-exclusive investigation examines whether his visions were prophecy—or something far stranger.
This episode is produced exclusively for the Divergent Files Podcast.
In 1939, an Argentinian painter drew two towers collapsing behind a cracked Statue of Liberty.
The caption read: “It will be attacked twice.”
More than sixty years later, the world watched it happen.
His name was Benjamin Solari Paravicini. Long before satellites, IVF labs, or moon missions existed, Paravicini produced hundreds of dated sketches that appeared to anticipate events decades in advance. The rise of Fidel Castro. Test-tube babies. Space travel. The first dog in orbit. Even global terror centered on New York.
This episode investigates the uncomfortable pattern behind his work.
We examine the verified drawings, their timestamps, and how closely some align with later events, including parallels to September 11 attacks, the space race, and biological technology once thought impossible. We also explore the personal accounts describing a strange encounter on a park bench in Buenos Aires—where Paravicini claimed he was “contacted” and instructed to draw what he saw.
The question isn’t whether he believed these images came from somewhere else.
It’s where they came from.
Was Paravicini channeling information from a non-human source?
Was he part of an early intelligence experiment probing precognition and altered states?
Or was he leaking information from a future that already existed—fractured timelines bleeding backward?
We explore competing explanations without sensationalism: psychological states, pattern recognition, ultraterrestrial theories, Cold War-era mind research, and why his work never fit comfortably into either art or prophecy.
This isn’t an episode about declaring answers.
It’s about confronting a pattern that refuses to go away.
Because if Paravicini was wrong, he was wrong in very specific ways.
And if he was right…
Then the most unsettling possibility isn’t that the future can be seen.
It’s that it can be accessed.
Stay curious. Stay grounded.
And remember… no matter what they tell you, the truth is still out there.
