(S) This report documents a remote viewing session conducted for the purpose of orienting a remote viewer to the protocol which will be used in the remote viewing training program at Stanford Research Institute (SRI), Menlo Park, California. 2. (S) The remote viewers impressions showed a moderate degree of target correlation in this session. The remote viewer did not relax and concentrate as he has done in the past. He tried a technique of drawing while viewing as opposed to his usual technique of drawing after viewing. The remote viewer's drawings show more target correlation than do his verbal descriptions. The remote viewer was bothered by ambient room noise which he felt prevented him from concentrating. 3. (S) The protocol used for this session was modified from that which will be used in later training. The protocol to be used in later training is detailed in the document, Standard Remote-Viewing Protocol (Local Targets) by Harold E. Puthoff and Russell Targ, November 1978. This session's protocol was modified in that a randomly generated, preselected target was not used due to the unavailability of the target pool. In lieu of a randomly generated, preselected target the "outbounder" or "beacon" simply chose a site which, in his opinion, was unique and identifiable. 4. (S) Following is a transcript of the viewer's impressions during the remote viewing session. At TAB A are the drawings made by the viewer reference his impres- sions of the target site. At TAB B are photographs of the target site. At TAB C is a post-session interview.

If you were a rat in the sewer and you're looking up through a grating. Then I had the impression, whatever it was, it was slats and it was above me and it was like a grating. It was solid parts and open parts. #7.5: Okay, now. Just for the purpose of an explanation of that a little bit, it would normally, I would say, that you might see a grating in the ground if you were standing up there. So, I'm interested in having you tell me what made you feel as though you were looking up rather than down. #14: Ah. . . Because. . . it was lighter above. #7.5: Okay. #14: In other words, it would be like looking up and looking through a grating and you can see the sky above or . . . #14: Strong light above. Rather than the opposite of looking at a grating in the ground and seeing dark shadows. #7.5: All right.

This wall seemed to extend over here. . . #7.5: Okay. What was the distance between where the steps ended and where the flat area began and the building.

The building appeared to be square in shape. Two or three stories. . . I really didn't get a feeling about a lot of windows. . Or anything. But I. . . It appeared to me there were a couple of tall large glass doors which were tinted. #14: And. . they would appear to open up in opposite directions. #14: (Not audible) #14: Ten: was trying for an inside look. . .

(S) Post-session interviews are conducted after the completion of a session to provide the selected remote viewer with the opportunity to express himself concerning his viewing experience. 2. (S) #14 was generally satisfied with his effort in this session. He wants to work in an area with less ambient dis- turbing noise so he can physically relax and concentrate more. He finds himself unable to mentally hold target images and describe them when he is interrupted by ambient noise associated with the viewing room. As to this session, #14's best energy was during the brief periods of quiet in the viewing room. 3. (S) #14 and #7.5 continue to work well together during the sessions. #7.5 is learning how to guide and assist #14 during the experience of remote viewing. A comfortable functional relationship has been established. Approved For Release 2000/0 -. ,. Rt 96-00788R000900570001-1
