Now that we have some insight,
into the concept of experiential space

we may consider interaction among
the experiential space continua

of a highly unique group of individuals.

In general, a study of the varying
dimensions of human experience

in the context of man in his society

is known as human social cybernetics.

In our experiment,
eight Category-A subjects

underwent pattern brain surgery

whose program was developed within the
academy's organic computer dialectic system.

The object of surgery was
to extend by a process called

biochemical induction.

The natural, electro-chemical
network of the human brain.

This extension would provide each
subject with telepathic capabilites.

A telepathist is one who can
communicate with other minds

by means which do not involve
perception by the senses.

Thus, telepathy is a form
of extra-sensory perception

or ESP.

Our subjects were to be kept in isolation
at the institute for three months.

Where they were to prepare for
their first meeting as a group.

This meeting was to take place at the academy
sanitorium in the Ontario north woods.

Telepathic dependency

is an extreme form of psychic addiction.

It is essentially an
electro-chemical addiction.

The dependent, surrending the
autonomy of his own nervous system

to that of the onject of his dependency.

And altering his patterns of
electro-chemical discharge

to mimic those of his object.

When the object of dependency is telepathically
unavailable for long periods of time

the new nervous patterns

find themselves suddenly
without a constant source

of electro-morphological reinforcement...

and, severe psychic disorientation

begins to manifest itself in the dependent.

At its most intense level

a frustrated dependency can result in the

irreversible destruction
of critical brain tissue.

In as much as the establishment of
a partial telepathic dependency

of the subject upon his researcher

is an unavoidable part

of the parapsychological
experimental gestalt.

The means to maintain this
dependency at a controllable level

must be considered an organic element

forming that experimental gestalt.

During the institute phase of
the induced telepathy series...

our subject

possessed of a statistically excessive,
dependency susceptability quotient,

wounded himself in the
forehead, with a hand drill.

The wound, a hole about
one-half an inch in diameter,

completely penetrated the subject's skull

and seemed to afford him the relief
of imagined cranial pressures.

Temporary euphoria,

and electro-chemical dissociation, which he sought.

It will perhaps clarify these matters

if we consider the specific configuration
of the Category-A subject.

Category-A is a classification

which finds its meaning within
the scientific metaphysics

of the aphrodisiast and theorist
Luther Stringfellow.

It is not what is usually considered
an objective classification.

Based for example, upon physical
or psychological characteristics.

Category-A, is rather a certain
field reaction of the researcher

to an intensive period of personal interaction
with each of his potential subjects.

There is also, therefore, the element
of an aesthetics of human form.

in the Category-A system
of subject classification.

Dr. Stringfellow made his name, as an
exponent of the existential organic approach

to the sciences, long before his work
in the socio-chemistry of the erotic

achieved its present
international eminence.

A Category-A classification

is the existential organic
methodology put into practice.

Dr. Stringfellow
has repeatedly stressed

the vital necessity for
the use of this approach.

Particularly,
in the new social sciences.

where variables are infinite

and complexity is of the
highest possible order.

The nature of erotic research

requires that the sexual emotional
involvement of the researcher

with each subject be taken
to its farthest possible extreme.

It is only in this way that the researcher

in whose consciousness, a total mosaic
of his particular research project exists

can divine in each of his subjects
a color, a texture, and a shape.

And so assign to that subject,
his proper place in the research mosaic.

It was hoped that many important questions
would be clarified, if not answered,

during the course of our experiment
with induced telepathy.

Two of the eight subjects consented to
having portions of their larynx removed.

Making it physically
impossible for them to speak.

In addition

large portions of the speech centers of the
brains of these subjects were obliterated

so that the psychological faculty of
speech itself would be impaired

Would the maturing and strengthening

of the telepathic capicity in
these speechless subjects

surpass that of the subjects who
still retained the ability to speak?

It was anticipated

that the telepathic experience would be much
more than simply reading another's mind.

One telepathist would perhaps
be able to apprehend

not only verbal patterns,
as they arose in the mind of another,

but would also encounter simultaneously

the germinative layers of memory,
learning, emotional response,

and psycho-physiological impulse, which
actually generate thought and language.

How dependent upon language is thought?

Is abstract logical thought even
possible without language?

The essence of the telepathic bond

is the dominance

of one of the particles forming
the telepathic conglomerate.

Whether the conglomerate consists
of two telepathists or of a large

socially cohesive group

the principle of psychic
dominance remains constant.

The dominant personality
is responsible for the

suppression of the heterogeneous
elements which the

conglomerate comprises.

The homogeneous elements which remain

are then driven together
to form the conglomerate

by the laws of telepathic bonding
implicit in the Stringfellow Hypothesis.

The principle of dominance thus
provides the agglutinizing impetus

which induces the initial
conglomerative motion.

As Stringfellow notes in defining
the nature of dominance

the will of the newly formed
conglomerate must necessarily

be a function of the will of
the dominant personality.

Only after an indefinite period of
symbiotic telepathic cohesion

can the dominant personality abnegate
its agglutinative role and encourage

the emergence of a truly synthetic
conglomerate personality.

Stringfellow's behavior
as parapsychologists

suggests that perhaps that his foremost
post-operative research objective

was to intuit which among his Category-A subjects

was the one most capable of assuming
the role of psychic dominant.

This subject was then provided
indirectly with certain

historical and interpretive data

concerning his fellow subjects.

This data would naturally assure the immediate
social dominance of the chosen subject

within the context of the experimental,
socially isolate gestalt

The function of the dominant would be
then to select from his fellow subjects

the one psychically most vulnerable.

And by the application of subtle, social intimidations

followed by a careful series
of potent symbolic gestures

draw the subject into the field of his
psycho-telepathic dominance.

Once a true conglomerate
exhibiting complete telepathic

bonding has been established
between this primary couple

the progression towards a larger and
more complex conglomerate may begin.

In psychic research

the emotional distance between
the researcher and his subject

is inevitably diminished until it is no more
than the distance between any two persons.

The acquiescence of the subject
of the demands of the researcher

comes nothing more nor less,
than an individual act of faith of love.

If there can be no love between
researcher and subject

there can be no experimentation.

In conventional theories
of scientific methodology

an experiment proves its validity

when it can be universally
repeated in every aspect.

In psychic research, such an
approach is completely untenable.

The existential circumstances of
any experiment in parapsychology

are inextricably mixed with the individuals

and the phenomological sets involved
in that particular experiment

and cannot be abstracted
from those individuals

or phenomological sets.

The conditions of experiments
in parapsychology are unique,

non-uniform and non-repeatable.

A completely non-scientific burden
is therefore place upon the researcher

for if the peronal relationship between
researcher and subject deteriorates

the experiment cannot continue
along its natural course.

The sensitivity of the experimental
parapsychological plexus

demands new methods

to help maintain the emotional
momentum in certain experiments.

Proving notice

that the motto of the Canadian
Academy for Erotic Inquiry

has immediate relevance for the Stringfellow induced telepathy series.

"Amor vincit omnia."
Or: "Love conquers all."

We understand that the unique way
in which an individual perceives

and reacts to his environment

is a funstion of his own
experiential space continuum.

When object events enter the experiential
space continuum of that individual

they become an integral
organic part of that space.

They are actually changed,
qualitatively modified

in accordance with the
creative nature of that space.

But we are now dealing with telepathists.

In theory

the experiential space continua of
two or more telepathists can merge,

can blend together to an extent far beyond
the range of normal human experience.

What would be the organic nature
of communal experiential space

shared among eight psychosomatic entities?

Would one person, one mode
of perception and reaction,

one experiential space continuum
dominate this oversoul?

Or, would each mind participate
in the synthesis of a uniform

newly created emergent space,
unlike any of its constituents?

How would the physical and social functioning
of members of this group be altered?

Or, could they function in
recognisable modes at all?

There is some evidence to suggest
the potential telepathic intensity

varies indirectly as the square of the
distance between two telepathists.

An increase in physical distance may
therefore be used by one telepathist

as an effective defence against telepathic
intrusion on the part of another telepathist.

A far more sophisticated
intrusion avoidance device

known as schizophonetic partition

was evolved by one of the female subjects
during the group isolation sanitorium phase.

In order to subvert attempts
by fellow subjects to establish

potentially intrusive telepathic rapport

she completely separated her
telepathic, non-verbal self

from her oral verbal self.

The telepathic self functioned
as a false self

diverting fellow telepathists
from the real or true self

which manifested itself only in occasional,
deliberately confused, verbal utterances.

She thus protected her true
self from telepathic intrusion

by abandoning her telepathic
faculty to a false self.

Not surprisingly, repeated telepathic
probes undertaken by other subjects

could not discover the true nature of
her experiential space continuum.

The danger inherent in
schizophonetic partition

as a telepathic intrusion avoidance device

is that the false telepathic self

tends to become increasingly parasitic
on the true oral/verbal self.

The true self begins to suffocate

in as much as it is starved
of contact with the outside.

And the false self gradually
becomes the only self

to interact with other selves.

In the instance of our
female schizophonetic subject

the true self began to express
its moribond existence

through the telepathic emission
of violent images of decay

vampirisim, disentegation and necrophilia.

Which sporadically interrupted the
functioning of the telepathic false self.

The intensity and frequency of this
emission of morbid, telepathic images

rapidly increased until it began to
create the same depressed mode

in those close to her.

Another important function
of our experiment

was to be the practical testing
of the Stringfellow hypothesis.

The Stringfellow hypothesis takes
the form of the following equation:

The rate of telepathic flow
between two minds,

is directly proportional

to the intensity of the relationship
between the two minds.

The units used to measure flow and intensity

are taken from psycho-chemistry.

In less mathematical terms, we may say

that this hypothesis indicates that
even between mature telepathists

there can be no telepathic communication

until some sort of existential
emotional relationship

has been established in
conventional sensory ways.

Thus, among complete strangers
there would exist only a kind of noise,

a short wave static

The Stringfellow hypothesis
also suggests that here

the potency of human eroticism
would play an important role.

A strong sexual attraction
would be a substantial basis

for the establishing of a geometerically
increasing rate of telepathic flow.

The politics of experience
on the level of individuals

is a correlative of the
politics of social groups.

The politics of telepathic experience

may be studied as a projection of the
power struggles among individuals

into the extremities of psychic
potency and complexity,

a projection that is, into the
future of human social evolution.

The role of the induced telepathy series,
in the total Canadian social experiment,

is theoretically secure.

That role emerges out of
Dr. Stringfellow's concept

the telepathic commune.

A group characterized by the blending
of experiential space continua

and the constant instantaneous
exchange of data

among the nervous systems
forming the commune.

Stringfellow indicates that at
the most basic structural level

the telepathic unit,
which empasizes acts of faith and love,

seems the most plausible replacement
of the obsolescent family unit.

The communal telepathic experience

translated into the larger
social national context

would preumably carry with it intrinsic
qualities of willing reciprocal dependency

and a mutual experiential creativity.

The social responsibility
of telepathic prototypes

is therefore of the utmost gravity.

For it is only by their individual efforts

that the creation of the first and most
critical telepathic communes can be realized.

For those of exponentially and
maturing telepathic capacities

the question of phenomenological
refinement must inevitably become one

with the problem of the
internalization of the sensory.

The telepathist faces the
obsolescence of the

senses and the possible atrophy
of the human sensorium

in all but its most mundane operations.

During a certain phase in
the telepathist's evolution

the sensory will attempt to
internalize to avoid its extinction

on the level of intellectuality and emotion.

This avoidance could take two forms.

One would be the forced psychic injestion

of the entire universe is conveyed
in terms of sensory information.

This would partially manifest itself in

in the instantaneous translation
into the vocabulary of the sensory

of all purely psychic abstract
or extrasensory phenomena.

Second form of avoidance would
be the reification of the psychic,

the abstract or the extrasensory, and its
subsequent externalization or projection.

The process begun by the subjectification
and displacement of the nonsensory

would find a point of
equilibrium and complete

itself only with the indescriminate
return or internalization

of both the projective nonsensory information

and its sensory screen,

the passive external world as perceived by the senses.

In both instances, the distinction between
the sensory and the nonsensory,

the concrete and the abstract,
the psychic and the physical,

would be lost utterly.

These opposite poles of human sexuality

are traditionally held to be
hetrosexuality and homosexuality.

Yet this same bipolar structure
of sexuality is ignored

when the question of normaility
and deviation arises.

The norm is taken to be hetrosexuality

and both bisexuality
and homosexuality

are considered deviations from that norm.

The primary justification for normality
of hetrosexuality is reproduction.

Only a hetrosexual relationship can,
as yet, result in regeneration.

This argument colapses however
once it is demonstrated

that the sexuality involved in reproduction
represents only a very small,

almost accidental segment of
the total human sexual spectrum.

Academy research has established that
both hetrosexuality and homosexuality

are equally, what might
be termed perversions,

relative to the potential
human sexual field.

In this context, the true norm is
an expanded form of bisexuality

which we term omnisexuality.

As an aphrodisiast, Dr. Stringfellow

proposes the use of synthetic
aphrodisiac drugs

to assist those who wish to attain

a fully three dimensional sexuality.

The proper use of psychic aphrodisiacs

such as those being
developed by Dr. Stringfellow

at the Canadian Academy for Erotic Inquiry

is not to increase sexual
potency or fertility

but to demolish the walls of psychological
restraint and social inhibition

which restrict persons to a monosexuality

or to a stunted bisexual
form of omnisexuality.

A telepathist then, by virtue
of the omnisexual nature,

of his experiential space continuum,

may readily be seen to be the possible
prototype of three dimensional man.

Certain unexpected result however,
threw the future of the project into doubt.

When preliminary confrontations between
any two subjects were arranged

the subjects not only reported no
instances of telepathic communication

but quite emphatically avoided even the
most casual sensory contact with each other.

At the same time,
electroencephalographic probes

indicated that such telepathic
communication as was denied by the subjects

was in fact taking place, and at
a remarkably high rate of flow.

How could such flow exist among strangers?

In an emergency program modification

five of our eight subjects were
combined in an enforced community study.

These five subjects, although psychochemically
the least volatile of the group

almost immediately retreated
into a state of false incapsulation.

Refusing to communicate in any way
with either researchers or each other.

Before further investigations could be made

two of the five subjects committed suicide

in their residences at the institute.

Another, pierced his skull
with an electric drill,

an act of considerable symbolic significance.

Careful separation of the remaining
subjects was maintained.

The study of human erotic morphology
deals more directly with this question.

Morphology is the study
of form and structure.

Erotic morphology is the study of those

forms which evoke an
erotic or sexual response

when they are perceived or
otherwise communicated.

Not only the shape of objects or body
parts, but also the morphology of motion,

of movement in certain patterns,

can convey erotic signals
of a very complex nature.

Finally, the combination of shape plus
motion can attain an erotic significance

which is contained in neither shape
nor motion when taken separately.

But, the telepathist does not
have to perceive a breast or thigh

or sexual motion directly.

He can apprehend the thought of
a breast, thigh, or erotic motion

in the mind of another telepathist.

And this thought is received
with greater impact

than the perception of the actual breast,

thigh, or erotic motion
would itself have been.

Thus, although both telepathists in our
hypothetical confrontation are male

they have made an erotic
morphological communication

which is essentially hetrosexual,
or male-female.

We can begin to see why

the telepathic experience is
essentially omnisexual in nature.

Why the male-female bisexual
categories can no longer apply.

In the sanitorium phase of
the induced telepathy series

measures were introduced to
prevent further instances

of interuption caused by
frustrated telepathic dependency.

A single compact electromagnetic
receiver transmitter

was provided for the subjects
undergoing primary group isolation.

The receiver transmitter
was to feed the subjects

reproductions

of a variety of patterns of
electrochemical discharge

unique to Dr. Stringfellow,
the group's common researcher.

The prupose of these transmissions
from the institute

was to ease the difficult transition from the

inevitable telepathic dependency

established individually between
Stringfellow and each subject

to a group telepathic cohesion
and a group telepathic autonomy.

The necessity of sharing the
transmitted electrochemical patterns

either through the sharing of
the receiver transmitter itself

or the telepathic sharing of the
experience of receiving the poatterns

would provide a basis for the
formation of a telepathic commune,

which did not depend upon
Stringfellow as a psychic cluster nucleus.

Dr, Stringfellow indicated that he himself

entered a severly depressive psychological

mode upon separation from
the induced telepathy group.

An event,

suggesting that to some extent

telepathic dependency
functions reciprocally.

Even between telepathists
and non-paranormals.

Five intensive months of work
with the remaining subjects

revealed ways to gradually increase the
tolerance among them, or group exposure.

It was found that the telepathic experience

was likely to be an overwhelming
and extremely exhausting one

verging on pain and hallucination.

The most crucial problem for
the telepathist apparently

was to develop within himself
the means to control and modulate

the rate and quality of telepathic
flow between himself and another.

The inexperienced telepathist
simply cannot cope

with the complexity and effort involved
in the social telepathic situation.

The first meeting of all the subjects as a
group took place at the Academy sanitorium

somewhat later than originally planned.

The sixth subject arrived
two weeks after the others

when it was certain that he had fully
recovered from his self inflicted violence.

It will be sometime before
the data on this period

accumulated through electroencephalographic
information retrieval

can fully evaluated.
