OBJECTIVE (U)
(S/CL-3/NOFORN)
SRI International is tasked with developing remote
viewing (RV) enhancement techniques to meet DoD requirements. Of par-
ticular interest is the development of procedures that have potential
military intelligence application, and that can be transmitted to others
in a structured fashion (i.e., "training" procedures).
(S/CL-3/NOFORN)
Under particular study in this effort is whether a
Coordinate Remote Viewing (CRV) technology, a technique that utilizes
coordinates to facilitate acquisition of a remote-viewing target, can be
successfully transferred to INSCOM personnel. .
*
(U)
RV is the acquisition and description, by mental means, of infor-
mation blocked from ordinary perception by distance or shielding.

INTRODUCTION (U)
A.
(U)
General
(S/CL-4/NOFORN)
At the beginning of FY 1981, SRI International made
a decision to develop and codify a promising RV enhancement procedure that
had emerged from earlier work -- a multistage coordinate remote-viewing
training procedure developed in conjunction with an SRI consultant. The
procedure focuses on developing the reliability of remote viewing by con-
trolling those factors that tend to introduce noise into the RV product.
A broad overview of the procedure, which has been derived empirically on
the basis of a decade of investigation into the RV process, is presented
in Chapter III. The basic components of this procedure consist of
· Repeated target-address (coordinate) presentation,
with quick-reaction response by the remote viewer
(to minimize imaginative overlays).
· The use of a specially-designed, acoustic-tiled,
featureless, homogeneously-colored viewing chamber
(to minimize environmental overlays).
· The adoption of a strictly-prescribed, limited
interviewer patter (to minimize interviewer overlay).
(U) At this stage of the development (Stage V is still in R&D; addi-
tional stages are projected), the RV training procedure is structured to
proceed through a series of stages of proficiency, hypothesized to cor-
respond to stages of increased contact with the target site. The stages
are outlined in Table 1. In a given remote viewing session, an experienced
*
remote viewer tends to recapitulate the stages in order.
*
(U) Use of Stage V in the sequence is optional, depending on the level
of analytical detail required.

Training by Stages -- An Overview
1.
(U)
Rationale
(S/CL-4/NOFORN) The particular effort covered in this report
concerns training of an INSCOM viewer to completion on Stage IV (S-IV).
To place the S-IV training effort in perspective, we summarize briefly
how it develops out of the earlier stages.
(U) The key to the earlier stages is the recognition that the
major problem with naive attempts to remote view is that the attempt to
visualize a remote site tends to stimulate memory and imagination -- usually
in visual-image forms. As the viewer becomes aware of the first few data
bits, there appears to be a largely spontaneous and undisciplined rational
effort to extrapolate and "fill in the blanks." This is presumably driven
by a need to resolve the ambiguity associated with the fragmentary nature
of the emerging perception. The result is a premature internal analysis
and interpretation on the part of the remote viewer. (For example, an

impression of an island is immediately interpreted as Hawaii.) This we call
analytical overlay (AOL).
(U) Our investigation of these overlay patterns leads to a model
of RV functioning, shown schematically in Figure 1. With the application
of a "stimulus" (e.g., the reading of a coordinate), there appears to be
a momentary burst of "signal" that enters into awareness for a few seconds,
and then fades away. The overlays appear to be triggered at this point to
fill in the void. Success in handling this complex process requires that
a remote viewer learn to "grab" incoming data bits while simultaneously
attempting to control the overlays. Stage I and Stage II training is
designed specifically to deal with this requirement.

Stage I
(U)
In Stage I, the viewer is trained to provide a quick-reaction
response to the reading of the site coordinates by the monitor. The response
takes the form of an immediate, primitive "squiggle" on the paper (called
an ideogram), which captures an overall motion/feeling of the gestalt of

the site (e.g., wavy/fluid for water).
Note that this response is essen-
tially kinesthetic, rather than visual.
3.
(U)
Stage II
(U)
In Stage II, the viewer is trained to become sensitive to
physical sensations associated with the site, i.e., sensations he might
experience if he were physically located at the site (heat, cold, wind,
sounds, smells, tactile sensations, and the like). Again, this response
is essentially nonvisual in nature (although color sensations may arise as
a legitimate Stage II response). Of course, in both training stages,
visual images may emerge spontaneously. In that case they are not
suppressed, but simply noted and labeled as AOLs.
(U) Provided Stages I and II have been brought under control by
the viewer, Stage III training is initiated. The phrase "under control"
means that the viewer has been observed to pass through a performance curve
of the type shown in Figure 2, which typically applies to
skills learning.
Certain objective performance measures, such as number of session elements
or number of coordinate iterations required to reach closure on site
description, are tracked to determine progress along the performance curve.

(U)
Stage III
(S/CL-3/NOFORN)
Whereas in Stage I and II viewing, data appear
to emerge (typically) as fragmented data bits, in Stage III, we observe the
emergence of a broader concept of the site. With Stage I and II data
forming a foundation, contact with the site appears sufficiently strengthened
that the viewer begins to have an overall appreciation of the site as a
whole (which we label "aesthetic impact"). Dimensional aspects such as
size, distance, and motion begin to come into play, resulting in configu-
rational outlines and sketches. For training practice, sites are chosen
especially to require the Stage III aptitudes of dimensional perception,
e.g., sketching of an outline-tracking nature. Examples generated by
viewer #059, the viewer of this study, include the Gateway Arch in St. Louis,
Iwo Jima Island, and the Stanford radiotelescope, shown in Figures 3 through 5.

Stage IV
(S/CL-3/NOFORN)
Because of the apparent increased contact with
the site that occurs on Stage III (a "widening of the aperture" as it were),
data of an analytical nature begin to emerge. This follow-on process con-
stitutes Stage IV in our nomenclature. Contained in Stage IV data are
elements that go beyond the strictly observational, such as ambience
(military, religious, technical), cultural factors (Soviet, Muslim, nomadic),
and function or purpose (radar, power generation, BW research, missile
storage). Stage IV viewing is therefore considered to be the crossover
point into operational functioning with potential intelligence value.

STAGE IV TECHNOLOGY (U)
A.
(U)
Overview
(S/CL-3/NOFORN)
Whereas Stages I through III are directed toward
recognition of the overall gestalt and physical configuration of a target
site, Stage IV is designed to provide information as to function, i.e.,
as to the purpose of the activities being carried out at the site. Thus,
Stage IV viewing transcends simple physical descriptions of what is visible
to the eye, to take into account human intention. Because, from an opera-
tional point of view, it is the latter that is typically a matter of intel-
ligence concern, Stage IV is considered to be the threshold for crossover
into operational utility.
(U) In Stages I through III, information is collected in the form of
ideograms, and their motion and feeling (S-I), sensations at the site
(S-II), and sketches that result from expanded contact with the site
(S-III). These various "carrier" signals are individual in nature, and
special techniques have been developed to handle each in turn, more or less
in a serial fashion. Once stabilized, Stage III forms the platform upon
which can be built the more refined techniques of Stage IV.
(U)
In Stage IV, the viewer is trained to accumulate data bits in
no less than eight separate categories, in parallel, in addition to pro-
cessing additional ideograms and sketches. These range from broad
categories of sensations and dimensional references, through specific
qualities (physical/technological detail, cultural ambience, and functional
significance), and includes tracking of the analytical overlay line. To
keep these separate signal lines on track requires exceptional control of
sesssion structure -- an ability trained for in the lengthy SI through SIII
training period. With these elements under control, the Stage IV data-bit-
acquisition procedures can then be used to build up an interpretation as
to the site's activities and functions.

Trainee #059 Response to Stage IV Training
(S/CL-3/NOFORN) Trainee #059 began S-IV training during the second
week of December 1983, and completed the requirements for S-IV on
22 March 1984. Thirty-one (31) S-IV training sessions were conducted with
this trainee. With four sessions aborted for various reasons, and with
one site requiring two sessions to complete, the 31 sessions provided a
total of twenty-six (26) completed trials. The session particulars,
including date/time, site, and coordinates, are listed in the Appendix.
The types of sites that must be identified include churches, hospitals,
dams, ruins, power plants, art galleries, libraries, missile-launch
facilities, government administration buildings, schools, airports,
caverns, observatories, chemical plants, and accelerators.
(S/CL-3/NOFORN)
A record of the total number of data bits generated
for each site (number of ideograms, sketches, sensations, dimensional
references, feeling tones, physical or functional details, and analytical
overlays) is given, trial by trial, in Figure 6. A given session had as
many as 249 separate elements (Trial 8), or as few as 28 (Trial 17). In
general, the end point of a session was recognition of the site's primary
function. Although site complexity was increased as the series progressed,
the number of data bits actually required (before site recognition)
decreased on the average (p < 0.025) as proficiency with the S-IV tech-
niques was acquired -- an expected outcome.
(U) The data-bit distribution among the various categories tracked
in S-IV training is shown, trial by trial, in Table 2. The first column
tallies the number of ideograms, sketches, and the like, generated in
the initial S-I through S-III process, the second column tallies additional
elements of this type generated after the S-IV process has begun. The
remaining eight columns tally the number of data bits generated for each
of the S-IV channels of interest. (More specific channel labels have been
passed to the client under separate cover; the specificity is protected
to prevent premature disclosure to prospective trainees.) It is con-
sidered that the data bits accumulated in Channels 5 and 6 constitute

the primary source of "hard" information that in most instances appears to
result in the decoding of site function.
(S/CL-3/NOFORN) To give some indication of progress through the series,
we examine here some specific cases. For Trial 2, the site was a hospital;
the trainee accumulated a total of 161 data bits in two sessions before
identifying the site as a hospital. By Session 12 (Trial 8, Cape Kennedy),
the difficulty in maintaining functional reliability while acquiring the
new skills (corresponding to the expected performance-curve dip of Figure 2)
surfaced in the form that 249 elements were required before site identifi-
cation occurred (site named by name).
(S/CL-3/NOFORN) By Session 25 (Trial 20), the power-generating func-
tion of Kariba Dam was identified after only 57 data bits, with another
seven data bits furnishing the phonetic "kirib" for a total of 64 data
bits. It was also noted during this viewing that the viewer spontaneously
experienced not only an expressed desire to three-dimensionally "model"
the site, but the emergence of phonetics, both attributes of the higher
stages (S-VI and S-VII, respectively). This we took as indicators of
readiness for advancement to the following stages.

EVALUATION AND RECOMMENDATIONS (U)
A.
(U)
Completion Indicators
(U)
Completion of a stage is signalled by (1) essentially flawless
control of session structure while generating the required elements for
that stage, and (2) production of a sequence of at least five site
descriptions whose content/quality meets the requirements for that stage.
(S/CL-3/NOFORN) As indicated earlier, in Stage IV training, the
viewer is required to provide information culminating in not only a
description of the site, but correct identification of the function as
well. These requirements were met by Viewer #059 in his final series,
Trials 22 through 26. The results are summarized in Table 3 below, as
well as in representative Figures 7 through 9.

(S/CL-3/NOFORN) The Stage IV proficiency demonstrated in the com-
pletion series has been maintained by the trainee as work has begun on
Stage VI; this provides additional evidence that a stable performance level
on S-IV characteristics has been achieved.
B.
(U)
Trainee Evaluation
(S/CL-3/NOFORN) Other than the training monitor (#002), Viewer #059
is the first to complete S-IV training. Although previous training stages
(S-I through S-III) had been pretested with other trainees, the desire of
the client to move ahead expeditiously with training of this particular
candidate dictated a reversal of the usual development procedure. This
candidate thus provided our first research data on S-IV technology transfer,
which turned out to be of exceptionally high quality. Until subsequent
individuals have completed S-IV training, there is not a substantial body
of work for comparison. Nonetheless, it should be stated for the record
that this trainee exhibited the least of difficulties in assimilating the
materials, as compared with the progress of trainees in general, and as
compared with the training monitor's own progress through S-IV in particular.
In addition, Trainee #059 exhibited a high professional demeanor throughout
the training, and applied himself at all times with the utmost stamina and
acumen. Taking these factors together, Trainee #059 was a model trainee,
and thus his profile constitutes an important data point with regard to
trainee selection.
c. (U)
Recommendations for Follow-On Actions
(U)
Given the quality of response to S-IV training of Trainee #059,
two recommendations for follow-on actions are offered:
(1)
The trainee should continue in the training in
order to incorporate additional skills available
in the remaining stages.
(2)
Given that detailed authentication of the S-IV
skills transfer (e.g., by extensive double-blind
testing), was beyond the time/funding scope of
the present effort, it is recommended that, in
parallel with training, the client enlist the
