This post contains an article from a site that says it may be forwarded as long as profit not involved. Again I reiterate that I have no affiliation with the sites mentioned nor do I endorse everything on any site including this one. The part after the original article is a follow-up ost written by me as part of another discussion in a newsgroup.
The following is an article that I came across Friday august 29th, 2003. I do not know if anyone that I am sending to has read before or not, but I have not seen any references to it. (*NOTE I sent this out to several sites in e-mails then) The link is
www.elfis.net/elfol8/e8elfeeg2.htm and
www.vxm.com/bib.doc.html for bibliography. (*NOTE there is also a link to a site containing MKUltra material on the page below the link to this article. I cannot access it due to the library computer saying it contains pornography, so I do not know how much information it contains.) I came across this article while checking out sites returned from the search brainwave+entrainment+detection+technology on Yahoo. (*NOTE that is also when I found the site mentioned from that search in a previous post/e-mail). (*NOTE for those that received this before I may alter the wording somewhat or delete a few sentences. The *NOTE will be anything that I inserted this time.) A couple of questions to keep in mind while reading the article or to ask yourself afterwards. The supposed established reputations; established where? Inside their own brainwashing cults (religions)? Why if these 'sensitives' were "marching to the same cosmic drummer" would they not acknowledges each other? Would not their 'abilities' make them? Hmmm, back to the religion thing. On the 1962 detection comments; If this were true then either electro or magneto encephalographic machines would register these signals without being hooked up to or irradiating anyone. Going back to the first paragraph in the article, the so-called 'earth brainwave' would have to be extremely weak or it would entrain everyone's brain. (*NOTE it is still stronger than the magnetic fields that someone's brain emits. However the brain has a natural defense to this entrainment. Which is why that frequency is broadcast stronger to do the entraining.) This would seem to make the documented occurrences of brainwave entrainment and/or brainwave interference at locations with very high natural geomagnetic, ferromagnetic or electromagnetic concentrations completely false, as the signals would be the same anyway. If these pronounced natural occurrences are what is being referred to, then using an EEG or a MEG would seem pointless as the person being monitored would already be entrained to said frequencies?? (*NOTE entrainment does take different amounts of time to occur and this even varies with each individual.) A couple of more paragraphs down the author asks a question. Referring to patent 3951134 which was granted in 1976, two years before date on article, his question had already been answered. Also since the technological ability to put words and images directly into a person's brain had been around for quite a few years before, the question seems to be nothing more than 'psychic' propaganda. Note the usage of the 'magic circle' analogy. This could also be referred to as trying to get more guinea pigs by preying on people that have already been brainwashed by their particular cult (religion) as either; that they posses a supernatural or a paranormal ability or that other members of their cults do and they want to be like them, maybe even to start their own cult. Also in this article the author points out his blatant non-consensual experimentations, and whether or not the author abandoned the tests, it is rather obvious that others did not. The author also points out what appears to be the Soviet 'woodpecker' signal. Note the mention of psychoactive components. Personally, I would say that the 'over the horizon radar' was an unexpected side effect of the mind control experiments or simply a convenient cover for them. As most satellite capable countries could track the launch or flight after launch, no matter at what height the missile flew, of any ballistic missile with their satellites, the whole thing sounds like propaganda to prey on peoples' fears or ignorance. Wonder where they learned that? Then there is the network referred to. Wonder where those people are now? This almost appears to state that these people were carrying on the MKUltra type experiments on their own. (*NOTE If you read about MKUltra, that is the impression that government wanted to give in the first place.) Even with the allusions to 'beneficial' results, (I have already written my opinions and the facts about brainwave entrainment.), the last line pretty much sums it all up. The article is 8 pages when saved as a word file. Death to psychotronic weaponry. Religion is fraud. James M. Vierling Jr.
Clinical research indicates that somewhere between 25% to 75% of human and animal subjects may exhibit marked
psychophysiological sensitivity to extreme low frequency magnetic and electric fields. Brainwave entrainment can be
demonstrated electroencephalographically when subjects are in the vicinity of oscillations in the frequency range of
approximately 3 to 20 Hz at intensities of below 100 nanoteslas. (1 tesla = 104 gauss)
ELF fields of 6.67 Hz, 6.26 Hz and lower tend to produce symptoms of confusion, anxiety, depression, tension, fear, mild
nausea and headaches, cholinergia, arthritic-like aches, insomnia, extended reaction times, hemispheric EEG desynchronization,
and many other vegetative disturbances.
H and B field (magnetic vector) oscillations of 7.8, 8.O and 9 Hz produce anxiety-relieving and stress-reducing effects
mimicking some "meditative" states. It has been speculated that frequencies in this range may be the universally permeating
"clock frequencies" or carriers on which "mind" or "consciousness" states can be impressed and interact with other life-forms in
the nebulous realms of ESP, psychotronics, distant healing, radiesthesia, and related paranormal but anecdotal phenomena.
Coherent ELF energies have the unique and interesting property of almost lossless propagation within the earth-ionosphere
cavity waveguide, and attenuation of these signals due to distance from transmitter sites is negligible. Power losses are O.8 db
per Mm (million meters) . The magnetic vectors, unlike electrical ( E-wave) components, permeate any substance and cannot
be effectively shielded, even by iron, mu-metal, lead, copper, "Faraday cages", etc.
The established physics of radio propagation therefore suggests that vast geographical areas can be readily mood-manipulated
by transmissions of EM energy within the earth-ionosphere cavity wave guide. The accidental discovery in 1938 of the
"Luxembourg Effect", by which a transmitter of relatively low power, fed to an antenna array producing a circularly-polarized
signal, can "piggy-back" to any preexisting RF energy source and produce disturbances of the ionosphere at any frequency
desired (which then "modulates" all other energies within that "waveguide" is fully described in the literature of 40 years ago but
probably forgotten or overlooked by today's technologists.
HISTORY AND BACKGROUND
My personal interest in EEG and consciousness dates to 1969 when I became fascinated with the (re)discoveries of Joe
Kamiya and the conscious control of brainwaves via biofeedback. I developed sensitive and reliable monopolar instrumentation
for this purpose under the Alpha-Metrics trademark.
In the course of traveling, lecturing, teaching classes and demonstrating this EEG equipment, and because one of my personal
interests was in parapsychology and consciousness research, I had the unique opportunity (and reliable instrumentation at hand)
to make electroencephalographic recordings of the brain wave patterns of a number of truly exceptional subjects in the U.S and
Hawaii who were famous or who had demonstrated established reputations as psychics , healers , medicine-men , dowsers,
etc.
Since I had a wealth of personal contacts in both the "scientific" establishment and "psychic underground" communities, I was
fortunate for the opportunity of meeting and being allowed to wire up and instrument a cross-section of "sensitives" from vastly
different disciplines, ranging from charismatic Christian faith healers, to an authentic Hawaiian Kahuna, to practitioners of
Wicca, hex, Santaria, radiesthesia-radionics, seers, ESP "readers", psychics, etc., etc.
A striking number of these authentic "sensitives" exhibited a nearly identical EEG signature when reporting that they were in their
"working" state of consciousness, a state persisting from one to several seconds intermittently during the "altered state of
consciousness" phase of the paranormal activity. The signal appeared to be an almost pure sine-wave of up to 25 microvolts as
read MONOPOLAR, frontal to occipital, midline; and 7.8 to 8.0 Hz in frequency; or on the "alpha-theta" borderline.
This serendipitous discovery was unexpected, in that although the subjects were practicing opposing disciplines, and coming
from totally disparate teachings and viewpoints, and would barely acknowledge the existence or authenticity of practitioners
outside of their belief system, they all appeared to be "marching to the sound of the same cosmic drummer" when in an altered
state of consciousness.
After replicating this observation a number of times at sites thousands of miles apart, the obvious question arose that if these
exceptional people, unbeknown to each other, were falling into the same "cosmic consciousness" mode, what or where was the
signal to which their brain waves became entrained? What was the "drummer"? Is there a "clock" or "synchronizing" signal
present?
In 1952, physicist W. O. Schumann postulated mathematically that our earth and ionosphere constituted a cavity wave guide
whose physical constants and magnetic field would oscillate at a resonant frequency identical to the range of human brain
waves. In 1962, our National Bureau of Standards division' of Radio Propagation reported the actual physical detection and
instrumental recordings of these signals; and as predicted, tracings were indistinguishable from encephalographic recordings
from human brain waves. This newly-discovered phenomenon was dubbed "earth brain wave".
Since there is a pronounced node in these "Schumann Resonances" at 7.8 - 8.O Hz, the question of possible EEG and ELF
interconnectedness appears to be a irresistible area for investigation.
In 1973 a professional coil fabricator duplicated the "Schumann" pick-up described on page 313 in the Journal of Research of
the National Bureau of Standards, Division of Radio Propagation, Vol 66D No.3 May-June 1962, and I perfected an
extremely low noise, highly-filtered amplifier capable of recording and displaying the naturally-occurring magnetic oscillations
surrounding our biosphere.
My intention was to re-contact as many of the "sensitive" subjects from my first study as feasible, and this time make
simultaneous EEG and ELF records and compare the signals for frequency and phase coherency. This was done on a more
limited scale than in the original phase of investigations. In a few instances, careful analysis revealed episodes of absolute
entrainment during the brief seconds when sensitives reported being in their altered states of consciousness. Unexpected
variables emerged, such as reliability factors dependent on lunar phases and time of day.
This study was extended to test the theory that if a very small percentage of subjects, by virtue of hereditary factors, or religious
or metaphysical discipline, or meditative practices, had sensitized some portion of their minds or brains to act as an extremely
sensitive " dual-conversion superheterodyne receiver"; would it be possible to remotely sense, amplify, and display this
real-time "drummer" to less sensitive subjects whose heads were as unresponsive and un-selective as a crystal set, so that they
too could mimic the highly organized "psychic" abilities of the trained "seer"?
Late in 1973, apparatus was built for pulsing a miniature lamp held in an empty eyeglass frame as a real-time photic stimulus
that would cause an evoked potential in step with the ELF "cosmic drummer". This was moderately promising, but marginally
successful because of the individually variable delay-llne (of about 100 milliseconds) between the onset of the stimulus and its
response.
The next effort at inducing psychic awareness was to place a 9 ft. diameter coil of about 100 turns of #28 magnet wire on the
floor of the laboratory, and expose subjects to the real-time magnetic replica of the highly-amplified "Schumann" signal sensed
at a remote location to avoid feedback. Results with individuals and groups experiencing this "magic circle" were dramatically
successful. The third generation investigations were extended to determine if subjects brainwaves could be influenced by
artificially generated magnetic oscillations of sine-waves of low intensity and at specific frequencies within the ranges occurring
naturally.
Some subjects exhibited absolute brainwave entrainment over the range of approximately 6 to 14 Hz and at signal strengths of
approximately 100 nanoteslas. Onset of phase/frequency lock-on averaged from one second to four seconds from the time of
switching on the artificial ELF generator, and would sometimes last for the duration of the stimulus, usually 10 second episodes.
One subject (Mr. A.P., aged 54) displayed absolute entrainment when he was placed inside a triple-shielded magnetic (iron)
and triple electrostatic (copper) Faraday cage. The artificial ELF stimulus was originating from a pocket-sized battery powered
device positioned outside the shielded room and 12 ft. removed from the subject. Tuning the device over a wide frequency
range caused subjects EEG to exactly follow the stimulus.
After demonstrating the neurological responses of sensitive individuals, and doing preliminary mapping of subjective states as
reported for various specific frequencies (defined to 1/100 Hz on a digital frequency counter attached to the ELF generator),
experiments were undertaken on a broader scale with totally unaware subjects, such as customers at local coffee shops during
rush hours. This obviated the variables of "suggestion", "expectancy" or "hypnosis".
Anecdotal data amassed suggesting that a pocket-sized transmitter at power levels of under 100 milliwatts could drastically
alter the moods of unsuspecting persons, and that vast geographical areas could be surreptitiously mood manipulated by
invisible and remote transmissions of EM energy. Tests were rapid:y abandoned after dramatic proof because of ethical
considerations.
It is well known that naturally-occurring earth-ionosphere magnetic oscillations will vary slightly in frequency diurnally, monthly
(full vs. new boon), and in definite cycles related to sunspot activity. This may well explain observable "full moon craziness".
Resonant frequencies are also affected by earth-venus-mercury-moon-Jupiter-sun gravity vectors. And there is
well-documented correlation between these geophysical phenomena and episodes of political unrest, mood alteration, and
health cycles; as supported by a vast technical and medical Literature. Our "Drummer"seems to affect all life-forms. An
excellent reference source of widely unrelated phenomena dramatically tied to our earth's geomagnetic cycles is Peterson's
Man. Weather. Sun. cited in the bibliography.
And by artificially amplifying or altering or distorting these geomagnetic fields, or transmitting specific and coherent frequencies,
vast segments of earth's populations could be affected. This now becomes an attractive modality of psychological or psionic
warfare; or intentional modification of moods that could reflect in areas ranging from time-specific insomnia to stock market
fluctuations. (There have been recent epidemics of 4:00 to 5:30 AM "worry", insomnia coinciding with the 9 Hz "Schumann"
drop-out as observed in journals of geomagnetic research.)
On several occasions within the last few years, our laboratory began detecting wavetrains in the ELF ranges that could not be
of natural origin. These may or may not be related to recent Soviet transmissions of radio energy spread over broad segments
of the frequency spectrum ranging up to 28 MHz. Danish monitoring stations report that peak powers of these signals are on
the order of 40 megawatts. Transmitters are presumably located near Riga or Gomel. Transmissions have disrupted lawful
radio communications throughout the world, and have been protested by many nations. The Soviets have not given an adequate
explanation of the purpose of these tests. An early supposition assumed Soviet experiments with over-the horizon radar.
Perhaps the psychoactive EM components are unexpected side-effects of this new technology.
Canadian Department of Transport monitoring sources have established that spectrum analysis of these strange signals appear
to be higher harmonics of a fundamental frequency of 6.67 Hz. (The Tesla fo) . The signals are modulated with pulses with
repetition rates of 5 to 15 pulses per second, usually 10 Hz.
Besides modifying the electrical, ionic, and stratospheric jet stream equilibrium weather-motion factors, the signals fall precisely
within the windows known to be psychoactive.
The Canadians report alarming mood-alterations in certain areas of Eastern Canada, such as near Timmins and Kirkland Lake,
Ontario, which observers believe are linked to Soviet transmissions.
Since both theory and laboratory tests prove that magnetic (H-wave) shielding is impossible at these psycho-active frequencies,
even with highly sophisticated multiple iron or mu-metal shielding, it can be speculated that ELF signals can be a powerful
potential weapon with global capabilities in psycho-physiological warfare. (The wavelength of an 8 Hz signal is 22,159 miles).
I feel that tests should be undertaken with a number of remote ELF sensors that can be made directional in order to establish
by triangulation the sources of these recently detected manmade disturbances, whether originating from offshore or
domestically. ELF data should be correlated with data monitored from Soviet transmissions that can be detected on
commercial short-wave receivers. These two modalities can be in turn correlated with human or animal EEG recordings. (Note:
this was done 5/25/78 with positive correlations; R.C.B.)
ELF as a modality for mood-manipulation is a demonstrated reality. And there is a strong possibility that it has been
implemented since 1975 by the Soviets, intentionally or accidentally as an unpredicted side effect of local standing waves or
re-radiation of power lines.
This speculation is being explored currently by a network of independent scientists working in the disciplines of
psychophysiology, geophysics. radio propagation, pharmacology, physics, electronics, and psychotherapy.
A bibliography of pertinent medical and technical articles and books is attached to this report.
Possible countermeasure proposals embrace psychopharmacology, adaptive desensitization, and the utilization of personal
low-powered (milliwatt) magnetic oscillators which by the law of inverse-square will override hostile signals, man made or
natural, with beneficial frequencies.
An interesting device of this nature with possible "countermeasure" capabilities is the "Vitasette" instrument designed by W.
Ludwlg for limited distribution and testing in West Germany. One model of this device is the size of a cigarette lighter and has a
claimed battery life of two years. Frequencies are user programmable over the range of 1.25 to 19 Hz by activating specific
combinations of switches. This " transmitter" generates spike-wave pulses when a mu-metal core of extremely high permeability
is driven to beyond saturation with a single transistor and coil.
Effective range is claimed to be about one meter. This is sufficient to insure proper synchronization of the wearer 's biological
clocks" , circadian rhythms, and possible coherency of left and right hemisphere neuronal firings. Ludwig claims cures for a
broad spectrum of vegetative disturbances
Similar to the characteristics of a frequency-modulation discriminator (Foster-Seeley) the brain cells appear to "latch" to the
highest amplitude pulses in their proximity, and unlike "A.M." detectors, will reject background noise and pulses of lower
intensity. The analogy would be that a small transistor radio held up to a listener's ear would drown out a nearby rock-muslc
band with thousands of watts of audio amplification. Similarly, a milliwatt device worn on the body could override a hostile
transmission of megawatt power at a distance.
While almost everyone is familiar with electronic "heart pacers" capable of insuring proper heart rhythms, few are aware of
recent research establishing that brainwaves and other biological functions can be influenced at great distances by magnetic
pulses of critical frequencies.
There is promise that such devices, when tuned to highly specific "beneficial" rates, could be of value in stress-modification,
tension and anxiety relief, dyslexia; psychotherapy, insomnia, "confusion" states if caused by left and right hemisphere
desynchronization, headaches, sexual dysfunction, and many other conditions. However, much like the initial application of
atomic energy, the first large-scale implementations of ELF discoveries appear to be destructive.
I invite other interested investigators to replicate and verify my observations.
A brief disclosure of my procedures follows.
A human subject, selected for sensitivity, is wired to a battery-powered, totally isolated EEG amplifier. The output is recorded
on one or more channels of chart, or (preferably) fed as an FM/VCO to channel(s) of magnetic tape. Monopolar electrodes
were frontal to occipital, midline.
Simultaneously, but with electrical or optical isolation sufficient to eliminate cross-talk, the output of a magnetic-signal detector
(Schumann coil) is chartrecorded or fed to its separate magnetic tape channel.
The "Schumann" coils typically consist of 50,000 to 250,000 turns of #38 magnet wire wound on a ferrite, soft-iron, or
mu-metal core. Coil axis is oriented to magnetic N-5 and connected to a separate amplifier having a bandpass of 2-40 Hz, a
noise figure capable of seeing O.1 micro-volt rms at 10 k ohms, and 100 db. or better rejection of frequencies of 60 Hz and
higher.
With proper subjects, phase and frequency EEG "lock-ons" can be easily observed by inspecting the chart recordings, or if
measurements are made in the field, by later observation of the magnetic tape records after signal recovery on paper charts or
dual-trace storage scopes (Tektronlx 214).
My initial transmitter of ELF signals consisted of a phase-shift, pure sine-wave oscillator whose output was fed to a 10 Hy soft
iron core inductance of 1200 ohm dc resistance. Power level was 9 volts at O.7 ma, or 6.3 milliwatts. This device could cause
EEG modification and mood alteratlon in subjects at up to 10 ft. A higher power device constructed in 1973 provided greater
effective range, as was expected. Highly specific modulating and carrier frequencies must obviously be withheld for fear of
potential mis-use, as are "keyhole" and waveform data, also details of the multiple-source devices producing " soliton" ELF
magnetic standing waves.
My investigations began in 1970 . Early research In consciousness-modification by external non-chemical stimulus was
undertaken in the following areas.
Photic stimulation of the subjects by miniature lamps, both cold-cathode (phosphors) and filament, and "strobe". These light
sources were either driven by oscillators or by the subject's amplified brainwaves in real time and later) with delayed and
phase-modified pulses to "pump" EEG's.
Exposure of subjects to voltage-gradient oscillating fields, and electrostatic (modulated) fields.
Exposure of subjects to pulse-modulated negative ion generators, typically (-)20 kv dc sources of corona discharge modulated
by mechanically rotating screen-shields or by carefully adjusted spark gaps that would arc over and short the output at
frequencies centering on the 8 Hz. range.
Exposure of subjects to actinic stimulus of nearly monochromatic red-green-blue pulses of light through a fiber-optic display
device, held close to the left or right eye. Phase and frequency of each channel was selectively varied in efforts to excite
red-green-blue rod and cone receptors independently and evoke "standing wave" potentials in specific sites of the occipital
cortex. By selective excitation of both eyes with delayed pulses, evoked "standing waves" occurred.
Audible " click" stimulus was explored, as were infrasonics , ultrasonics (28 k Hz) and phase-shifted sound fed to left and right
ears. Audio-modulated 100 kHz electrostatic fields were tested.
In two series of tests, the amplified, filtered, and clipped ( about 200 mv) real-time "Schumann" signals were fed directly to the
head via surface electrodes. This approach was dramatically psychoactive, and abandoned in 1974 as dangerous aftersubjects
experienced "LSD" type visions.
At this time, we prefer SINUSOIDAL (not pulsed, triangular, square, saw-toothed, etc.) waveforms. Fundamental frequencies
are psychoactive, but can be enhanced by audio-modulating them onto compound carrier frequencies, hetrodyning multiple
sources, generating "soliton" waves; etc.
We feel that much data has been overlooked by other researchers not specifying the precise frequencies under investigation to
accuracies of .01 to .001 Hz. There is evidence that long-chain molecules near liquid-crystal boundaries may simulate coherent
dipole arrays with very high Qs. Biological signals are after all at the opposite end of the electromagnetic spectrum where
communications frequencies in the VHF and UHF bands are specified to .005% and better.
These investigations have been undertaken privately as a personal interest by the author. They have been totally funded by
myself, and are in no way connected with any outside interests, either governmental or commercial.
Results have been reported on an informal basis via limited personal communications with other interested parties. Highly
specific frequency and advanced waveform data are proprietary.
Precise technical details on low-noise biological and geomagnetic amplifiers, filters, Schumann detector coils (now into our
forth-generation devices), practical and inexpensive voltage-controlled oscillator and F.M. discriminator circuits for cassette
tape recording of ELF and EEG signals and data, practical and inexpensive modifications to digital frequency counters
extending their ranges to 1/100 Hz, suggestions for recording and displaying and analyzing these signals, etc., etc., can be made
available to other serious and informed research workers who have a responsible interest in this subject. We feel it wise to
withhold only the data on hemispheric desynchronization frequencies.
The instruments and hardware used in this study can be made available for inspection and evaluation.
Emphasis in this report on ELF magnetic phenomena rather than details of results of related psychoactive modalities is based on
the conclusion that the physics and propagation characteristics make this the most viable choice of technically feasible global
mood manipulation.

That written, the "sub-conscious" is nothing more than something that has been learned by someone, (or in some cases programmed into someone), that they don't have to think about (consciously try) to accomplish. Heart beat, breathing, walking (once learned and provided no injuries happen to necessitate re-learning), reading, etc. However, the brain functions relating to these activities still occur, i.e. your heart will not beat without the electrical impulses from your brain (the few beats that may occur due to habituation of muscle contraction sometimes occur, but will cease after a couple). As the brain and nervous systems develop (read about DNA, which is nothing more than a chain of elements, on your own), which said development being chemical interactions between elements and what supplies the electrical impulses to the nervous system as a sort of kick start. This is also when the development of a defense mechanism against interference waveforms starts, if it didn't then the fetus would be nothing more than a part of the same organism as the mother. The mother's womb is basically a life support system or extra-venous feeding tube supplying elements for the chemical interactions to occur. The 'kicking' or movement of the fetus inside the womb is the fetus's nervous system developing and an electrical impulse or impulses reaching the muscle system causing a reaction and can also be a response to an external stimulus (or sensory input) reaching the fetus. At birth a child's brain starts receiving and processing other sensory input in response to external stimuli. Crawling and walking are things that are learned , usually aided by visual stimuli of seeing someone or something else moving and trying to mimick them or it, but once learned and repeated don't have to be thought out to accomplished. Talking would be an example of both sub-conscious and conscious processes. Once someone learns how to pronounc
