In this blog post, I will explain my vision for what the company could achieve, together with the plan to get there.
Initial phase: Experiment and Experiment!
While I acknowledge that I am not the first person to be interested in using devices to communicate with spirits (see for example this website and this website), I feel that the current understanding on earth of how it works is very limited. If we want to get good communications, we need to have a much deeper understanding of what is involved. This is a scientific pursuit. Experiments are a crucial part of this as it is only really by trying things out that you can know what works and doesn’t work. My feeling is that I want to conduct a very large number of experiments, as there are many factors that affect whether communication happens or not and there is a lot to learn.
Milestone one: First contact
The first big milestone in this endeavour would be to receive a message from a spirit through some sort of device. Of course, this would be a great boost to confidence in this endeavour, but it also has other benefits. In particular the spirit may be able to share advice or information about making communication devices. There is a lot more knowledge about this kind of communication in the spirit world than there is on earth.
Afterwards, a main focus will be on understanding the technicalities involved in the communication. Once there is communication, there will be a great feedback system as I’ll be able to see what factors make the communication better (e.g. clearer and of longer duration) or worse.
Milestone two: Digital Contact
As you may be aware, information can be transmitted in two kinds of format: analogue and digital. Loosely speaking, analogue means there is a continuous range of possible output, whereas digital means only a fixed collection of values are allowed (like computers that run on 1s and 0s). I expect that the first contact I receive will be analogue. After all, most things in nature, such as sound waves, are analogue, while digital is mostly used for codes that need some sort of mechanism to be understood.
So why do I want to make digital contact? There are several reasons, such as the fact that it allows for error correction to improve the quality of the communication, and allows for integration with modern technology. Digital would mean communication could be received to a computer, and any file format people on earth have come up with is a possibility for what spirits can share with us (provided the spirits are willing to take the trouble to learn how that file format works). But perhaps the biggest advantage of this milestone is what could happen next.
Milestone three: High-Bandwidth Digital
One drawback with some of the existing setups for communicating with spirits, and also with traditional forms of mediumship, is that there is a limit to how much information can be shared from the spirit world per second (known as bandwidth). Typically such methods are constrained in the sense that if the information takes five minutes to say, it takes five minutes to transmit. I feel spirits would like to share vast amounts of information, and it would be a great benefit if this constraint could be removed.
If a digital device works well, the rate at which it operates could be increased, potentially to billions of bits of information per second, which is the speed at which modern laptops operate. While more traditional methods of communicating with spirits would allow a medium to write and publish say ten books of information channelled from spirits over the course of the medium’s time on earth, a high bandwidth digital communication device could allow the transmission of upwards of 10,000 books. These could then be made available as ebooks, free to download, or published and printed like traditional books as this can be a better reading experience.
Conclusion
I hope you have found this information interesting and that it has given you some insight into what Spirit Communication Technologies hopes to achieve.
