But why the mental effects on the scientists? Why the "Why?" R.F. hears upon waking? Or the times when he hears his name called? Or the fact that he saw the computer-generated image of the guardian outside his house?
Could they have unleashed something from this man's mind?


Or maybe woke up something in their own minds?

I would like to know how the test subject fared after the experiment was done...

Well, if you haven't seen this yet:

Quote:
While I did not speak much with the man himself, I know that he had married, divorced, married again, and had one child with each wife.

He was a religious man (protestant, I'm sure) and a self-described introvert. He had rather common interests, and I believe he was a hobbyist in carpentry, though I can't say so with complete confidence.

Asked to list any traumas from his past that could have had a severe impact on him mentally, he listed the murder of his father by what I think was his uncle and the disappearance of a high school friend.

Medical history included a broken limb (leg, I believe) and concussion stemming from two separate, typical childhood accidents. I may be confusing him with another candidate on this next one, but I think he may also currently suffer from diabetes.

That's about all I can remember.


Now, that's quite a medical history. Something about this says there's more to the patient just as much as there's more to the video/audio retrieved.

Many angles we can go about analyzing this...

HOLY CRAP! How could I possibly have missed that?! I even read that post, but the casual way he wrote the beginning, must have made my subconscious mind kind of tune it out.
That could make the "guardian" either the subject's father, the uncle who killed him, or a mental projection that intended to bar intruders as theorized.
Not too sure about the missing friend, but it could involve the terror you see in the figure's eyes in the last frame.
That last person COULD be either the missing friend, or the subject waking up.

It's a reply to a comment he left to someone asking for more info earlier today.

Yes, the reply is in the "The end" post.

I wonder what side of the family the subject's uncle was on...
If it was his mother's side, then there could be an age-old story behind it, if it was the father's own brother.... there could be something else.

Yes; that was my question to him. Interestingly enough, I seem to have been the first to actually comment on his blog. The patient history is quite interesting--you'd think they'd realize that a guy who thinks his father was murdered by his uncle (possibly his father's own brother) wouldn't exactly fit the "normal guy" type they were looking for, eh?

Yeah, not to mention the minor concussions and kidnapped classmate.
I mean, this guy's been through some pretty serious psychological trauma in his lifetime.
If that creepiness is what most minds looked like, I may not be alone, after all....

Well, we know with certainty that he only makes his posts very late at night... his comments as well... with the exception of his first two entries.

I'm not sure what signifigance this bears:
1) He's in a radically different timezone
2) He's afraid of sleeping at night, rests during the day, is active in the wee hours...
3) Something even stranger.

If anything, we know when to expect answers to questions.. so keep firing away.

This is making no sense. Why make us play 20 questions? RF obviously knows more than he's posting, but is willing to answer any question we have thoroughly and sometimes offering up more than we ask for. Why not just do a full brain dump and get it over with already? We're getting more background on the subject himself, but little on the findings or the full story behind the shut down.

Why is it that he thinks this video is so significant and that people should watch it?

What else is going on right now that is causing him to have hallucinations? I watched the video several times and I never hear things or see things. Why is he?

If this is so important, why would he be "leaving now, though I may be back from time to time."? If this is as earth shattering as you make it, why not be around more to make it known?

Lastly, what exactly are we supposed to be doing with all this? The video is important, you need to watch it ... and? What? Are we supposed to tell more people? What would we tell them? Should we track down the company? Track down the subject? Get RF to sit in the chair himself and have his dreams interpreted so we can see and hear his "ghosts"?

Very very good points, and I made R.F. aware of them, I'm sure he'll get back to us tonight so look forward to it.

Good thinking, guys.
Those sounds are making me nervous thinking about them.
If I'm right, it seems like those sounds are similar to the Wyoming Incident....
I'm not saying there's a connection at all, just.... if it's the same PM... I may not be in this by the end....

everyones got a theory

i dont understand how he thinks the brain built a defense because of his intrusion.....i didnt think your survival sense kicked in during sleep? so that would mean the fight or flight response kinda took over the subcon..
or maybe a mesh between the 2.....just throwing this out there....im also really startin to think he was the test subject only because of his hallucinations why else would that happen.....unless the machine was broadcastin outside the machine?

Does anyone know of a freeware that can show PPTs?
