Introduction
Well, in researching the literature relating to electromagnetism (EM) it is hard to ignore the volumes that have been dedicated to what I have dubbed 'The Dark Side of Electromagnetism'. An investigation will soon turn up a long history of experimentation and many accusations of this technology being put to use for a variety of purposes. Please don't think this is only associated with government and military organizations. There is one story on the internet that tells of a device being found in a church, to 'help' the congregation to believe. Another story was about a supermarket chain that was caught, sending out silent EM messages to shoppers to buy more and to not steal! Even if these two snippets are not true, the concept of subliminal messages is not new. In the following I have written about instances that are undisputed historical facts. A link has been provided for research that can be classed as definitive. My opinion is that we have to be aware of this issue, because the 'technology' is now in the process of being repackaged as entertainment. Folks, it's time to wake-up.
Electromagnetic Man
There are three recent stories that demonstrate the desire to exploit man's electromagnetic nature. The first story in July 2004 provides ammunition for the anti-Microsoft brigade who see this as another avenue for Microsoft to try and maintain domination in the computer world. The Guardian Unlimited ran with the following headline, Gates of hell: If Microsoft gets its way, we will all be hooked on computers - literally. [M1] The rather amusing Guardian article informed the world that Microsoft now had exclusive rights to the ability of the human body to transmit digital information. US patent 6,754,472, was awarded to Microsoft, as a "method and apparatus for transmitting power and data across the human body".[M2] The patent described that the arm could operate as a keyboard, it read as follows
"The physical resistance offered by the human body can be used in implementing a keypad or other input device as well as estimating distances between devices and device locations. In accordance with the present invention, by varying the distance on the skin between the contacts corresponding to different keys, different signal values can be generated representing different inputs." [M3]
I suppose it could ignite a new fashion.....QWERTY tattoes!
Microsoft propose that the skin's own conductive properties can be used to transmit the data needed to create a personal area network (PAN). This would support personal electronic devices-mobile phones, pagers, personal data assistants (PDAs) etc, instead of the use of radio signals or infrared. Welcome to the world of Homo-electro!
The second story is hilarious and it is a report of a Japanese solution to the problem of the increasing number of elderly. Have you ever heard of the old TV Series called the 'Six Million Dollar Man'? Well it is now thought possible to give old people superhuman powers, by putting them in a "Robot Suit"! [M4] A prototype battery-powered suit, code-named HAL-5, invented by Professor Yoshiyuki Sankai, detects muscle movements through electrical-signal flows on the skin surface and then amplifies them. The suit can also move on its own accord, enabling it to help elderly or handicapped people walk, or provide workers with superhuman powers. I can just imagine the new TV Series to promote it, 'The Sixty Year Old, Billion Yen Man!'
The third report is insidious and focuses on the dark side of the use of electromagnetism. It was first reported in New Scientist magazine, April 2005 that a new Patent had been granted in the U.S. to PlayStation maker Sony Corp for beaming sensory information directly into the brain. The technique can be used to create videogames to aim ultrasonic pulses at specific areas of the brain to induce "sensory experiences" such as smells, sounds, taste and images. The patent specifies, "The pulsed ultrasonic signal alters the neural timing in the cortex". A Sony spokesperson declared that no experiments had already been conducted.[M5] However, this last statement is misleading because the patent has been awarded. It is an arduous task to prove to the Patent Office that you have something that works, and only then can you be awarded a patent.
The background to the technology that Sony has aspirations to commercialize, is the focus of this article. For those who wish to remain ignorant of the dark side of electromagnetism, I suggest you stop reading after the section about the Neurophone. However, I would urge you to use the link to the end of the article so that you can read the Tokyo '99 Declaration, which occurred at a UN sponsored conference for neuroscientists. Just above this section you may also wish to know that Mind Technology only works on 80% of the population, so you can find out why that is so. For those who want to know a little more about the issues surrounding EM radiation and the fifty years of experiments into the science of re-arranging consciousness - Mind Control/Technology, then please continue this article. It will provide a basic overview, so you can properly understand the concerns of the knowledgeable in this area. If you have children or grandchildren, I would like you to know that this is creeping into mainstream awareness and curiously, filmmakers are taking a stance in this issue and warning our teenagers. The plot of the teen film Agent Cody Banks 2 was about a CIA 'educational' mind control device that had been stolen for the purpose of controlling world leaders. The line in the film by Cody's CIA handler sums up the situation,
'Mind Control is Reality…..God Help Us All'
The Neurophone
Before, we focus on the dark side, I would like to demonstrate how Mind Technology can be used positively. The classic example is the invention of the Neurophone in 1958, by the Dr Patrick Flanagan who was only 14 years old at the time! (Incidentally Dr Patrick Flanagan is smart! His website states that at age 11, he had designed a missile detection system that was purchased by the U S Department of Defense.[12.5] )
Flanagan invented a device that from anywhere on the body sound like voice and music can be picked up and converted into electrical impulses, which propagate along the skin and then are transferred into the brain, bypassing the ear and associated hearing mechanisms entirely. It took 6 years to convince the U.S. Patent office that this invention worked. A patent was awarded only when a working model was tested on a deaf patent office employee and he heard! Patrick Flanagan then improved the invention technically and submitted it under a new patent number 3,647,970. He made the mistake of adding the accompanying sentences with his application: "The simplified speech waveform can be transmitted directly through the earth or water and be understood either directly from the medium or after simple amplification. The simplified waveform can easily be encoded by scrambling to provide secure voice communications."
The United States Defense Intelligence Agency decided this device was a national security threat and so the neurophone was placed under a secrecy order. Patrick Flanagan was forbidden from conducting further research or even talking about his technology for another four years. Meanwhile, deaf people were prevented from getting an absolutely world class invention. This story continues, the Neurophone had been on the market for years when in 1996, the military got cold feet and started to worry that ordinary public could get to understand this technology. So the Neurophone was again put under a secrecy order by the U.S. Defense Intelligence agency. Further scrutiny of Flanagan's patent also reads: "The present invention involves discovery that certain electromagnetic waves induce responses in the nervous system of mammals... Each individual nervous system is at least somewhat selective in respect to the frequencies to which it is most responsive."[13] There are now new versions that surpass the original Neurophone model, but this story demonstrates that this technology is highly guarded. The following historical background helps us to understand the reason for military intervention and nervousness, in the use of this device and why the Sony patent can only be seen as ominous.
Opening Pandora's Box
For over fifty years, research has taken place all around the world in the manipulation and exploitation of electromagnetic fields, that most would consider unethical and even sinister. The use of electromagnetic radiation now falls under the category of 'Non-Lethal Weapons', and that has now become the new Pandora's Box. A short historical perspective will help us to realize that this kind of situation rarely occurs out of the blue. The setting of the introduction to this subject, is the cold war between the Superpowers of the US and the former USSR.
The Moscow Signal
This is an old story but one that many readers will be unfamiliar with, it illustrates that experiments in the electromagnetic 'Dark Arts' has been going on for at least half a century. It is widely reported and accepted that the Soviets started bombarding the American Embassy in Moscow in 1953 with 'microwaves', which continued for thirty years. [1] In 1962 the CIA decided to officially investigate the Moscow "signal", so in 1965 the U.S. government funded Project Pandora, "a top secret multi-million dollar program". Top scientific experts were consulted by the American Government "about the meaning of microwaving" the Moscow Embassy. Dr. Robert Becker, was asked if central nervous system, CNS disturbances occur by microwave radiation. The Pandora Project found that the microwave radiation interferes with decision making capacity, causes chronic stress and low efficiency. The white blood count of Embassy workers was 40% higher than normal. [2] Monkeys exposed to microwave radiation showed a marked decreased performance of simple tasks.
Nothing was publicly revealed to the U.S. public until 1976 when stories started circulating in the Boston Globe. Dr. Becker states in a 1984 TV documentary that the U.S. couldn't say anything about it because safety standards for the U.S. were higher than the microwave signals used by the Soviets on the Moscow Embassy. If the U.S. admitted bioeffects or athermal effects, (non heating), from the radiation, such as a high white blood count, it would throw into doubt the U.S. standard set "rather arbitrarily " in the 1950s. It would also be an embarrassment to the Americans who chose to keep the public in the dark about the microwaving of the Moscow Embassy from 1953 to 1975. [4] So, in 1976 the embassy employees found out that they were being used as guinea pigs when the US decided to install defensive screens to protect personnel, a situation roundly condemned in an official report. Consequently without admitting liability, the state department eventually tried to appease the embassy staff by re-grading Moscow posts as carrying an extra health risk and gave all staff a 20% salary rise … a number of staff tried to sue the US Government…'[5]
Neil Cherry in his mammoth 2000 report (review of 188 research papers on EMR for the New Zealand government), included the Moscow Embassy affair in his analysis of the harmful affects of EMR. He wrote that the employees and dependants were studied for possible health effects from the radar exposure (Cherry disputes the "microwave" description for the EMR detected), by a team from the John Hopkins University under the direction of highly respected epidemiologist, Professor Abraham Lilienfeld. Dr Lilienfeld noted that the group was quite small and the follow-up time too short to generally identify significant health effects such as cancer. He thus recommended that continued health status surveillance should be carried out. This was not done. The incidence of sickness and death were compare with the average US rates for similar age groups for both the Moscow Embassy and other Eastern European Embassies. Cherry writes there was great pressure for the group not to identify adverse health effects. Dr Herbert Pollack, the U.S. State Department Contract Officer is recorded to have changed the conclusions of the report, Goldsmith (1995a, 1997). Despite the small numbers, the Lilienfeld data shows a significant increases in:
- Cardiac symptoms
- Neurological and psychological symptoms
- Altered blood cell counts
- Increased chromosome aberrations, and
- Elevated cancer in children and adults
- Sickness increasing in a dose-response manner with years of residence.
These symptoms are associated with chronic exposure to very low intensity pulsed microwaves in the range < 0.04 to 0.2(W/cm2).
Cherry concludes that, 'In a sense too, the fact that the State Department case officer, Dr Herbert Pollack, altered the conclusions, attests to the significance of this study, the results of which would be embarrassing to the U.S. Government, both in terms of compensation and in terms of the validity of the U.S. exposure standard.'[3]
The 1984 BBC documentary 'Opening Pandora's Box' [4] explained how the safety standards for electromagnetic radiation, EMR, were set higher in the 1950s to allow the military to have unlimited use of EMR technology. At the time, American science reports suggesting EMR health effects of brain tumours, heart conditions, leukaemia, cataracts and more, but these were ignored. The military was a major source of funding and so reports were not followed up. Microwave News, a journal on nonionizing radiation, reported that radar men, air traffic controllers and police officers filed complaints. These court cases revolved around the validity of the safety standard. Dr. Milton Zaret, another Pandora scientist explained that most government committees, who set the safety standards around the world, were set up in the same way as in the U.S. Members of the committee did not want to impede or put restraints on progress by tightening the safety standards for EMR. This is illustrated by government action, as follows. As part of Project Pandora, the U.S. government conducted Operation Big Boy on Navy ships to find any health effects from radar equipment on the ships. When effects were found, the government terminated the project.
Dr. Becker stated that there was tremendous growth of the communications and power industries and a complete lack of information or even consideration of EMR health risks. Industry didn't consider bioeffects of EMR until the mid seventies. There was a "complete lack of consideration" of any biological effects from electromagnetic radiation and the repeated dogma was there are "no possible biological effects." Then there were concerns over complaints and the subsequent study results on computer VDTs and miscarriages and birth defects and powerline exposure and leukaemia in adults and children living near them. Studies reported a high incidences of suicide in people living near power lines. Other studies reported that electrical workers were at risk for leukaemia. Meanwhile, the U.S. standard had been virtually unchanged since the 1950s. In comparison the Soviet standard was originally 1000 times lower than the U.S position. The targetting of the Moscow Embassy highlighted the fact that very small dosages of EMR can have long term harmful effects, which are still officially denied even today.
The Woodpecker Signal
Then for reasons that have never been disclosed, the Soviets then decided to get serious and the microwave bombardment of the US Embassy became the prototype for the 1977 Soviet Woodpecker EMR signal. Robert Becker, in the book "The Body Electric"[1980] was probably the first American to publish the presence of the Soviet, so called psychoactive, "Woodpecker signal" in the USA. According to him the signal appeared on the bicentennial celebration of July 4, 1976. (I don't think that was a coincidence either!) The term "Woodpecker signal" first noticed and coined by ham radio operators around the world because the signals were pulse-modulated at a rate of several times a second, so it sounded like a buzz or woodpecker. The source was located at a giant transmitter near Kiev in the USSR. Robert Becker was not sure at the time of writing his book what the effects were, but he wrote: "The available evidence, then suggests that the Russian woodpecker is a multipurpose radiation that combines a submarine link with an experimental attack on the American people." Robert Becker mentions that a source had given him details of an American attempt at retaliation called "Operation Pique". This included "bouncing radio signals off the ionosphere to affect the mental functions of people in selected areas, including Eastern European nuclear installations." Robert Becker sums up the situation up by saying, "The whole business sounds too much like an undeclared electromagnetic war." The expose called 'Angels Don't Play This HAARP', tells us that there has been a long history of experimentation of electromagnetic signals scaled up and tested as 'non - lethal weapons' by the U.S and the former U.S.S.R. We don't how much of this could be considered an unofficial war. My viewpoint on this is that we still don't know for sure what the Woodpecker signal was aiming to do, but it is agreed by all there was a 'psychoactive' component. We will now focus on what is meant by 'psychoactive'.
Re-Arranging Consciousness (Mind Technology)
It became more widely known in the late sixties that the potential to re-arrange consciousness existed using electrical impulses. Through the work of a neurologist Dr. José M.R. Delgado of the Centro Ramon y Cajal Hospital in Madrid. Yale University School of Medicine published his findings in the book "Physical Control of the Mind: Towards a Psychocivilized Society."
Robert Becker explains in his book 'The Body Electric', that the potential for electronic stimulation of the brain for mind control at that time, was largely known through the work of Delgado. He could use signals to provoke animals like cats and monkeys to perform the same activity as many times as it was stimulated, up to sixty times an hour. Another type of signal made monkeys turn their heads or smile, no matter what else they were doing, up to twenty thousand times in two weeks. As Delgado concluded, "The animals looked like electronic toys." [2] Delgado stimulated brain activity in his patients with ESB (Electronic Stimulation of the Brain) in the ELF domain, especially in the amygdala and hippocampus. Funding for the project came predominantly from the American Office of Naval Intelligence, a CIA cover agency .[6] Delgado summarized his findings by writing that, "movement, emotion and behaviour can be controlled by electrical forces, and human beings can be controlled like robots with the touch of a button." His unfortunate 'patients' reported that their behaviour had changed against their will because they lacked the strength to resist the electrical signal. "Since the brain controls the entire body and all mental processes, electrical stimulation of the brain could be developed into an important method of planned manipulation of human behaviour."[7] Delgado, the master of the dark side of EM, elaborated his point of view in sentences like the following:
"We need a programme of psychosurgery for political control of the mind. Everyone who deviates from the given norm can be surgically mutilated.... The individual may think that the most important reality is his point of view. This lacks historical perspective.... Man does not have the right to develop his own mind.... We must electrically control the brain. Some day armies and generals will be controlled by electrical stimulation of the brain."[8]
In Spanish Cordoba the flamboyant Delgado demonstrated his mastery of the black arts, in the bullring. He implanted hair-like electrodes into the brain of a bull, the electrodes acting as receivers of electrical stimulus and his control mechanism. A newspaper report gave the following account:
"Afternoon sunlight poured over the high wooden barrier into the ring as the brave bull bore down on the unarmed matador, a scientist who had never faced a bull. But the charging animal's horns never reached the man behind the heavy red cape. Moments before that could happen, Dr. Delgado pressed a button on a small radio transmitter in his hand and the bull braked to a halt. Then he pressed another button on the transmitter, and the bull obediently turned to the right and trotted away. The bull was obeying commands in his brain that were being called forth by the radio signals acting as electrical stimulation to certain regions in which fine wires had been painlessly planted the day before." [9]
Delgado's research did find adherents and further horrible experiments on humans have been documented. Some of the later experiments pointed in the direction of filtering the "imprint" of concrete emotions in the brain with the aid of electroencephalograms (EEG) and specific computer software to synthesize the relevant frequencies and amplitudes as emotion signature clusters and store them on computer. And, if needed, to clone them into other brains by stimulus transfer. (This last fact does not sound too different to Benveniste's work with cell signatures.)
At the same time as Delgado was carrying out his questionable research, the CIA were sponsoring other avenues to change mental states. The notorious MKultra Project was a collection of 149 psychological warfare and interrogation experiments commissioned in the 1950s by the CIA.[10] It also included money for "techniques of activation of the human organism by remote electronic means." [11] When these experiments came under public scrutiny, a CIA memo stated that they were looking for behavior control to enhance consciousness. [4] I find that truly hard to believe!
Dr. Becker says he was also consulted by the CIA in the early 60s to determine whether pilots shot down and captured by Soviets in the 1960s could possibly have been exposed to EMR. without them realizing it and furthermore if that would that have caused them to have a personality change. 'Mind Control' was suspected as pilots were tested psychologically before overseas missions and when they returned back, so dramatic changes in test results were found. "Pilots did not report bad treatment and were not aware of any EMR exposure by Soviets during debriefing sessions." They were interned by the Soviets for two to six weeks and returned with "considerable personality alterations". (I actually wonder whether the changes made them nicer people, and that was why the military were so concerned!) Dr. Robert Beck, an electronics engineer, is one former member of scientists recruited by the U.S. government to work in 'psychoactive research'. His published work talks of "specific frequencies that cause anxiety, fear, confusion. He described an experiment in which electromagnetic pulses emitted from a device that looked like a wristwatch caused other diners in a restaurant to talk more loudly or quietly, depending on the EM pulse emitted by the wristwatch device."
In 1968, the Russian academician A.S. Presman published a book "Electromagnetic Fields and Life" [12] where he presented theory that electromagnetic signals provide information for all living matter, and can exert control over its intrinsic processes. In his book he mentions the experiment of S. Turlygin from the year 1937 where centimeter waves induced in people feelings of sleepiness and feebleness. A. S. Presman also gives a timeline on the history of knowledge on the effects of electromagnetic fields on the cerebral visual system. Here we find that as early as 1893 a Frenchman D'Arsonval had noticed that the electromagnetic field can produce in people a perception of 'a flash of light'. In the following years many other scientists have made the same observation. The list of literary sources at the end of the A.S: Presman book is 28 pages long. [13]
The early implants were soon replaced by tiny miniaturized intracranial receivers, which in turn have been superseded by microwaves and other forms of electromagnetic radiation to elicit mind control. How far the technology has progressed is hard to monitor, even by those who are more knowledgeable in this area of science. This is due to the convenient guise of government "national security", which now looks like an excuse to commit atrocities with no accountability. One attempt at keeping the public informed of mind technologies has been by Michael Hutchinson who wrote the book 'Mega Brain, 1996', and then produced a Newsletter to keep readers upto date with the latest research.[14] The book 'Angels Don't Play this HAARP' devotes over 30 pages to this subject and they cite U.S. government documents with quote after quote. We learn that military spokesmen now talk about the 'new mental battlefield.' So you can see from this short historical introduction presented here, the science of rearranging consciousness has been underway for decades by various agencies around the world.
Nevertheless, the general public, are not 'informed', and are only disturbed by the occasional newspaper article and documentary. We do know though, that this mind technology can be re-hashed and used at airports to find terrorists. It was reported in The Washington Times on August 17, 2002 that "NASA Plans to Read Terrorist's Minds at Airports". This was widely reported and served as a reminder that Big Brother is alive and well. [15] Rather interestingly at the end of the article there is excerpt which states, 'Published scientific reports show NASA researcher Alan Pope, at NASA Langley Research Center in Hampton, Va., produced a system to alert pilots or astronauts who daydream or "zone out" for as few as five seconds.' I wonder if we would allow employers to kit us out, so that we can be 'zapped' back into action when our attention wanders occasionally!
In 1986 the United States Attorney General held a conference on the Less than Lethal Weapons. In the report on this conference among others is stated: "Participants also discussed the use of various wave lengths and forms of administration of electromagnetic energy as a non-lethal weapon. A substantial amount of preliminary research has been conducted in this area... One conference participant noted that scientific knowledge of human physiology is progressing to the point where it may soon be possible to target specific physiologic systems with specific frequencies of electromagnetic radiation to produce much more subtle and fine-tuned effects than those produced by photic driving." [16]
Photic driving is the use of visible light pulsed at frequencies which have been shown to impact the brain, commonly understood as the principle behind epileptic fits. Dr George Baker of the Defense Nuclear Agency, at this same conference presented a paper infamously titled "RF Weapons: A Very Attractive Nonlethal Option". (If you want a comprehensive historical review please use the link at the end of this article to a Bearden article called "Historical Background of Scalar EM Weapons".
One last infamous quote, from a world expert in consciousness, who is very happy to demonstrate on any sceptic, the effectiveness of this technology.
"Give me the money and three months...and I'll be able to affect the behavior of 80 per cent of the people in this town without their knowing it. Make them happy - or at least they'll think they're happy. Or aggressive."[17]
Dr. Elizabeth Rauscher-Bise, Nuclear Physics and Engineering, University of California
This quote reveals the truth that mind control only appears to work on 80% of the population. I believe the remaining 20% that are not affected, have strong personal energy fields where inappropriate energies are deflected. Researchers believe that the personal energy field can be strengthened to deflect undesirable EMR, by introducing a 8 Hz scalar EM signal. 8 Hz is very close to the Earth's Schumann Resonance of 7.83 Hz., and can be achieved by wearing a device like the famous Tesla watch. In doing so, the energy field around the body is enhanced and harmful electromagnetic frequencies are deflected. I believe that also completing Phase I - IV of the EMF Balancing Technique to calibrate the Universal Calibration Lattice, UCL also permits more personal energy to be carried, hence the UCL ACTS LIKE A SHIELD. This is enhanced by the process called 'balancing the flow', where core energy, a natural EM scalar wave, is strengthened. For further details about bioscalar energy see Dr Valerie Hunt's website at www.bioenergyfields.
The Truth Will Set You Free
Tokyo '99 Declaration
In May 1999, a UN sponsored conference for neuroscientists took place in Tokyo.[18] This conference resulted in a declaration addressing the ethics of consciousness studies. In conclusion to this article, the Tokyo '99 Declaration states,
-
In the coming years, studies of the brain and the mind will advance our understanding of consciousness. In this quest of knowledge, the hope is for improving human wellbeing and the conditions of life on Earth. Since early ages, with the power of their brain, human beings have developed knowledge and tools for doing both good and bad. Today, we have the intellectual, physical and financial resources to master the power of the brain itself, and to develop devices to touch the mind and even control or erase consciousness. We wish to profess our hope that such a pursuit of knowledge serves peace and welfare. But remember: twice in recent years we virtually failed to use brilliant scientific discoveries to serve such ends. The competition for mastering nuclear power has not made the world safer, nor has the analyses and synthesis of DNA relieved concerns raised by genetic engineering. The question of ethics is before us once again, at the dawn of new discoveries about the brain and consciousness. This time, though, we are armed with the lessons of past failures, lessons that help us to meet the imperatives of hope.
Colleagues, let us take the first step.
Let us turn towards the brilliant scientific discoveries of the brain and consciousness, and seek a way towards peace and welfare, along which scientists and philosophers of the world may contribute to a good conscience of humanity and ethics. Let us work for the wonders of science, instead of serving its dark powers. Together, let us explore our brain and move towards a science of consciousness that will encourage arts, ethics and thinking. This is, and will be, an endless quest, which will not be completed in a hundred days, nor in a thousand years, nor even perhaps in our life time on this planet.
But, let us begin.
Then, our fellow scientists and philosophers of the world: do not ask what you can establish with purely scientific interest only, but rather what you can do to serve human peace and welfare. Let us erase the egocentric discipline-confined approach and join the collective effort to develop a science of consciousness. And let us developed it for fundamental discoveries and for serving the hope of human welfare, never warfare.
Will you join in such a historic effort towards hope?[Tokyo]
May 28th 1999, United Nations University in Tokyo
The last paragraph is very much a prayer that we can all share.

Update, 9th July 2009
Court to Defendant: Stop Blasting That Man’s Mind!
Wired News, 1st July 2009
Late last year, James Walbert went to court, to stop his former business associate from blasting him with mind-altering electromagnetic radiation. Walbert told the Sedgwick County, Kansas panel that Jeremiah Redford threatened him with “jolts of radiation” after a disagreement over a business deal. Later, Walbert, said, he began feeling electric shock sensations, hearing electronically generated tones, and getting popping and ringing sounds in his ears. On December 30th, the court decided in Walbert’s favor, and issued a first-of-its-kind order of protection, banning Redford from using “electronic means” to further harass Walbert. No, seriously.
I recently took part in a BBC Radio 4 program, which took a light-hearted look into the “the real Manchurian Candidate” — and examined whether there is any truth in stories of mind control. It gave me a chance to talk about exotic non-lethal weapon concepts like the so-called telepathic raygun, the system which beams sound directly into your skull, and the “voice of god” talking fireball. Most of these projects are just lab experiments, or examples of Powerpoint engineering. But in some legal, policy, and business circles, electromagnetic brain assaults are being taken seriously.
Walbert’s cause is supported by Jim Guest, a Republican member of the Missouri House of Representatives. He’s working on proposed legislation to addresses electronic harassment, including a bill against the forced implantation of RFID chips.
The U.N. is also now taking the possibility of electromagnetic terrorism against people seriously. And for the first time this year’s European Symposium on Non-lethal Weapons included a session on the social implications of non-lethal weapons, with specific reference to “privacy-invasive remote interrogation and behavioral influence applications.” Those who believe they are being targeted are getting a bit of official recognition.
For some, this opens up a new business opportunity. There are already quite a few companies out there offering “Technical Surveillance Counter Measures,” or sweeps to determine if you are the victim of electronic harassment. As well detecting the usual bugging devices, they can check if you are being covertly bombarded by microwaves which may be the cause of “headache, eye irritation, dizziness, nausea, skin rash, facial swelling, weakness, fatigue, pain in joints and/or muscles, buzzing/ringing in ears.”
Much of this trade may come from people with symptoms caused by something less exotic than high-tech military hardware. But companies will no doubt be willing to sell them expensive protection measures, anyway. And as awareness of these developing technology projects increases, we are likely to be hearing a lot more about “electronic harassment,” “gang stalking” and the like over the next few years.
And there is also likely to be what folklorists call “Ostension,” or acting out. Now that there are so many websites explaining how easy it is to harass people by zapping them with a modified microwave oven, sooner or later someone is bound to try it.
