DAVID KLINKENBERG
HOST & EXPLORER
EXECUTIVE PRODUCER
David Klinkenberg is an award-winning international speaker, as well as one of the best selling violinists in the world with close to two million record sales. He has performed at the Lincoln Center, the Memorial Coliseum, the Superdome and has appeared in thousands of cities around the world.
For over a decade, David has been exploring what is known as “the da Vinci code”. Not the fictional book or movie everyone has heard about, but the genuine message that was left by Leonardo da Vinci in his most famous work of art. David believes he has found the message and that we all need to hear it.
At the age of 4, while being mentored by the great-granddaughter of the famous composer Antonin D’vorak in Chicago and already performing concerts, young David was discovered by officials from the state of Illinois who were amazed by his unique abilities and chose to send him to a computer lab where he was taught advanced computer coding and complex pattern recognition. With his extreme early-age nurturing, David became brilliant at noticing complex patterns everywhere.
While traveling around the world on his tours, performing in over 100 countries, he noticed curious patterns in ancient myths that were unexplained. Those later led him to find and decipher the real da Vinci code. That code - verified by professors around the country and even America’s top intel officials - sheds light on uncomfortable truths that challenge a lot of what we know about our history as humans on earth and has staggering implications for our future.
David’s best-selling book on the subject “On the Origin of Civilization” was first published in 2012 by the head of the math department at Reed College. Since then he has shared this knowledge in talks and workshops to well over 100,000 people personally and has been featured in many known media outlets. David has spoken to scholars from Harvard, Colombia, UC Davis, Virginia Tech, Cal Tech, and to senior agents at the Pentagon, the DOD and the State Department about the da Vinci solution and its implications for all of us.
