i . Approved For Release 200 NCEA SSTFIED (U) Target 2: Varsity Theatre Arcade. The target is the aorect eo: Varsity ices entry to a motion picture theatre. From the street one sees a double colonnade running from the street to the theatre entry. To the left and right are stucco walls with movie posters behind glass, and down the center is a.row of striped umbrellas. The viewer described a tunnei-like structure, receding away from him, and masonry walls, with bright reflec- meer fe | tions, all relatively apropos. He, also drew and described a kiosk struc ture with a striped coolie-hat top, which bore no resemblance to anything at the target site during the viewing period. When the viewer was taken to the site for feedback following the session, however, it was found that umbrellas matching the striped coolie-hat top had been set up, indicating the possibility of contamination from future remote viewing (FRV) of feedback. Additional evidence along these lines is supplied by the results, of the following session. (U) In general, in this session the drawings were more applicable than the transcript, Accuracy Rating = 5. (U) Target 3: Glass Slipper Motel. This target is a motel on El Camino Real. The facade is a representation of a fairy tale castle. The viewer didn't describe anything like the target, although he did give a detailed and coherent description of a place that he visualized. One of the consistent items in the viewer's transcript was his reference to . big shade trees, an arbor-like effect, and horizontal yellow and orange bands of cloth, supported on wires to make a horizontal awning. Accuracy Rating = 0. ' “(U) Of some interest, however, is the fact that after taking aa the viewer to the target site, and confirming that it did not particularly | | match his description, the interviewer suggested that they have lunch at | / a new restaurant that had just opened up, several miles away. The restau- : ul rant visited had all the features described above. Neither the viewer nor , a 30 — ~ UNCLASSIFIED Approved For Release 2000/08/07 : CIA-RDP96-00788R001300170002-9

(U) Target 4: Wallbangers Racquet Ball Court. The target building is situated in relatively open country, immediately adjacent to a pond with three fountain spouts in it. The outbound team initially parked in front of this pond, but then moved the car around to the side of the building because they were concerned that spending any time near the fountain might tend to focus the viewer's attention on this element, rather than on the racquetball club interior. (U) The viewer described two main elements; a body of water with two or three fountains in it, and a balcony looking down on a geo- metrical pattern of some sort. The viewer provided a coherent description of the outbound team's activities with regard to their stay on the balcony. However, he described the scene outdoors containing the fountain, as if - it were visible from the balconey (which it is not), apparently super- ‘imposing the interior/exterior aspects, Accuracy Rating = 4, (U) Target 5: Airport Tower, The target was the control tower “at a small local airport (Palo Alto Airport). Upon arrival at the airport, the target team drove down a short road, passing a tall, metal-braced beacon tower at the entrance, and parking by the smaller, stone control “tower. The viewer gave first a description that appears to pertain to the beacon tower at the entrance to the Palo Alto Airport, and then appears to have shifted to the control tower (the actual target) a quarter mile away. (U) The viewer made a careful sketch of a tall metal tower — : with diagonal bracing. He called it a mast, with a "plane" at the bottom. "When the interviewer asked him about the plane, the viewer said it was a 31 Approved For Release 2000/08/07 : CIA-RDP96-00788R001300170002-9 SLAP et Ly A A AAG an He aA

(This type of symbolism--there were airplanes near the tower--is often seen in remote viewing transcripts.) . The viewer then drew and described a globe- and-clouds emblem (FAA symbol) which is on the stone tower door, and was studied by the target team at the site, (U) Figure 2(a) shows a photograph of the beacon tower, and Figure 2(b) the viewer's initial response. The first paragraph of his comments includes the following: "at first I thought it was a ladder going vertical ... it slowly changed like 4t was a lattice TV tower. It appears to have three verticals, with diagonals and cross bars. I can't see the top of it, but logic tells me that it would have an antenna; but I see a bell shaped structure instead." This narrative shows a viewer successfully overcoming his analytical prejudice in favor of his actual pictorial images. (U) Although the control tower rather than the beacon tower was the actual target as far as the outbound team was concerned, we interpret this result as indicating that once in the vicinity of the target at the Palo Alto airport, the taller beacon tower caught the remote] viewer's attention, We assigned this session an Accuracy Rating = 6, the § highest of the thirty-six trials in this introductory orientation series. (U) Target 6: SRI Shielded Room, The viewer had a repeating view of an outdoor, turning disk, which condensed for him into a drawing greatly resembling a merry-go-round at a nearby park, a well known target § described in our published work, Little of this description resembled the actual target. Accuracy Rating = 0. (U) Because of the variability of this viewer's results, the blind judging result was nonsignificant. In spite of two zero scores, however, this viewer was fourth place among the six participants with 32 UNCLASSIFIED 7 _ Approved For Release 2000/08/07 : CIA-RDP96-00788R001300170002-9

The nonsignificant blind judging result may somewhat underrate his ability (which is highly variable) to do remote viewing; we found his descriptions of the small waterfall, the Varsity Theatre entrance, the airport beacon tower, and the apparent FRV contamination taken together to indicate RV potential not yet under good control. 3. Viewer No, 372 (U) (U) Target 1: Stanford Art Museum. The viewer described a stone building with a higher central part, and two wings, one on either side. He then drew the building in a careful pen and ink sketch which strongly resembles the target (see Figure 1, Section II earlier). However , 3 there are several other less carefully executed sketches on the same page, and on other pages, including sketches suggesting tombstones, which resulted in this transcript being ranked first place match to a cemetery. The transcript itself had many elements that pertained to items in the museum entry, however, including column design. The judge gave this a second place rank out of six. Accuracy Rating = 4, Ww) Target 2: Baylands Nature Preserve. For reasons yet to be determined, this is the target that in our seven years work is most often described excellently, and in a somewhat characteristic manner. The j main feature at this botanical garden at the San Francisco Bay is a wooden | walkway from the shore to an observation platform a quarter of a mile away § in the salt marsh, This walkway is crossed at right angles by a similar one that follows a row of high-voltage transmission towers, Almost every viewer who has had this target has described a "large cross on the ground." This viewer was no exception. He also characterized it as an outdoor site | with no other buildings.
