It's
a fountain that
looks rather like
a
claw.
It's
a black
sculpture.
And
it has benches around
it made
of
cement.
ARE THERE ANY BUILDINGS AT THE PLACE YOU WERE LOOKING AT?
ARE
THERE ANY BUILDINGS?
YOU DESCRIBED A KIND OF A COURTYARD.
USUALLY
AT SOME PLACES THERE SHOULD BE A BUILDING,
LARGE OR SMALL THAT THE
COURTYARD
IS ABOUT.
LOOK AT THE END OR THE
SIDES
OF THE COURTYARD.
IS THERE ANYTHING
TO BE
SEEN?
I have
a sense
that
there are buildings.
It's not solid buildings.
I mean there are some around
the periphery and
I have
a sense
that
none
of
them are very
tall.
Maybe mostly one story, maybe an
occasional two-story
one.
y
DO YOU HAVE ANY BETTER IDEA OF WHAT YOUR SQUARE WAS THAT YOU SAW
AT THE OUTSET?
No.
I could hazard different kinds
of guesses.
DOES
IT SEEM PART OF THIS
SCENE?
It...
think
it could be.
It could almost be
a bulletin board
or something with notices
on
it maybe.
Or something that people were expected
to
look at.
Maybe
a window
with
things
in
it
that people were expected
to
look
at.
WHAT KIND OF TREES DO YOU SEE IN THIS PLACE?
I don't know what kind they are.
The impression was
that
they
were shade
trees
and not terribly big.
Maybe
feet
of
trunk
and then
a certain amount
of branches above
that.
So
that
the
branches have maybe
a 12-foot diameter,
or something.
Not real
big
trees.
NEW TREES RATHER THAN OLD TREES?
Yeah, maybe five or ten years
old,
but not real old ones.
IS THERE ANYTHING INTERESTING ABOUT THE PAVEMENT?
No.
It
seems
to be not terribly new or terribly
old.
Not very

interesting.
There seems
to be some bits
of
landscaping around.
Little patches
of
grass around the edges and peripheries.
Maybe
some flowers.
But,
not
lush.
YOU SAW SOME BENCHES.
DO YOU WANT TO TELL ME ABOUT THEM?
Well,
that's my unsure feeling about
this
fountain.
There was
some kind of benches
of cement.
Curved benches,
it
felt
like.
They
were of rough
cement.
WHAT DO YOU THINK HAL IS DOING WHILE HE
IS THERE?
I have a sense
that he
is
looking at
things
trying
to project
them.
Looking at different
things
and sort
of walking back and
forth not covering a whole lot
of
territory.
Sometimes standing
still while he looks
around.
I just had
the impression of him talking,
and
I almost sense that
it was being recorded
or
something.
I
don't know
if he has
a
tape recorder,
but
if
it's not that,
then he
is saying something
because
it needed
to be remembered.
IT'S
11:33.
HE'S JUST PROBABLY GETTING READY TO COME BACK.

INSTRUCTIONS
TO SUBJECT:
EEG EXPERIMENT*
The purpose
of
these experiments
is
to determine whether stimuli
(flashing
lights,
geographical locations,
and
so
on)
located
in adjoining
laboratories
or
at more distant
locales
can be perceived,
even though
the
signals are
so
low due
to intervening walls,
distance,
and
the like,
as
ordinarily
to be considered blocked from the visual modes of perception.
In addition
to obtaining oral responses, we will also from time
to
time
be measuring physiological parameters with standard apparatus
(for example,
EEG)
to determine whether there
is evidence for subliminal perception as
registered by physiological correlates,
even in the absence
of
conscious
perception.
;
There
is no risk associated with
these
tests,
and the only discomfort
expected
is
that attendant
to sitting quietly
in a darkened room for
30-
minute
test intervals.
During the experimentation feel free
to ask any questions
that
come
to mind
as
to
the procedures,
purposes,
results,
and so on associated with
the
study.
As with all our activity you are free
to withdraw consent and
to
discontinue participation in the project
at any time without prejudice.

APPENDIX
C
UNIVERSAL RANDOMIZATION PROTOCOL
It was deemed desirable
in our work
to establish a universal random-
ization protocol independent
of
the particular experiment under considera-
tion.
The only exceptions were
to be automated experiments where
target
selection
is determined by radioactive decay or electronic randomization.
The randomization procedure
is designed around
a ten-unit base,
e.g.,
ten targets,
ten work periods,
and so
on.
A ten-digit sequence governing
an experiment
is blind
to both experimenter and subject,
and
is uncovered
by means
of
the following procedure.
A three-page RAND Table of Random
Digits
(Table
C-l)
is
entered
to obtain a ten-digit sequence,
the entrance
point being determined by
throws
of
a die,*
the first
1,
2,
or
3 deter-
mining page,
the next
1,
2,
3,
or
4 determining column block,
the follow-
ing
1,
2,
3,
or
4 determining row block,
and
the final
throw determining
from which
of
the
first
six rows
in the block
the ten-digit sequence
is
to be
taken.
An opaque card with
a single-digit window
is
then moved
across
the row
to uncover digits one
at
a
time.
If
a multiplicity
of
targets
exist,
the
digits
0 through
are employed directly.
If
a binary
command
is
required
(e.g.,
increase/decrease or activity/no activity)
the parity
of
the digit
(even or
odd)
is
employed.
*A technique found
in control runs
to produce
a distribution of die
faces
differing nonsignif icantly from chance expectation.
