Claudio Messori’s Cosmogonic Model of Consciousness and ITC: Theory and Application

Introduction

Claudio Messori’s “A Cosmogonic Model of Human Consciousness” (a four-part series) presents an ambitious physicalist ontology that attempts to explain how consciousness arises from fundamental cosmic processes. Key to Messori’s model are novel concepts like Tension (a primordial force or condition), dynamis (a pre-energetic potential), tensorial fractals (the basic building blocks of reality, in differentiated and undifferentiated forms), and a memory-based ordering principle called mnemopoiesis (MOPS). Messori integrates principles of holography, fractals, and strange attractors to describe how different physical dimensions (from relativistic to quantum and beyond) emerge and interactfile-sv1qhw4vefeal8t3hvbdhvfile-sv1qhw4vefeal8t3hvbdhv.

Instrumental Transcommunication (ITC), including Electronic Voice Phenomena (EVP), is the field of using technology to purportedly communicate with non-corporeal or “other-dimensional” entities (typically spirits or consciousness beyond the body). Since the mid-20th century, researchers and enthusiasts have reported anomalous voices on tape recorders, radio devices, and even images on video screens. Mainstream science often views these as psychological artefacts or hoaxes, yet dedicated ITC researchers – from Friedrich Jürgenson and Konstantin Raudive to modern pioneers like Sonia Rinaldi – have amassed tantalizing data. Even Thomas Edison speculated in 1920 that if disembodied personalities exist, a “delicate” instrument might be devised to register their subtle influencestheafterdarkproject.blogspot.com. Messori’s cosmogonic model, while not developed with ITC in mind, provides a rich theoretical framework that can reinterpret ITC phenomena: it suggests a cosmos where information, memory, and pattern (not just energy and matter) play fundamental roles. In this report, we first summarize Messori’s model of consciousness, then apply its concepts to understand ITC/EVP mechanisms and to propose new experimental approaches. Both well-known ITC techniques (audio EVP, radio-sweep “ghost boxes”, etc.) and overlooked methods (reverse EVP, visual ITC with video feedback, face-morphing imagery) are discussed. Finally, we outline speculative future experiments and device designs inspired by Messori’s ontology – for example, instruments to couple with tensorial fractal states or to create coherence across different “mnemopoietic” planes of reality. Throughout, we cite historical and contemporary ITC developments to ground this theoretical exploration in actual practice.

Messori’s Cosmogonic Model of Human Consciousness

Messori’s model is “cosmogonic” in that it starts from the very origin of physical reality and builds upward to human consciousness. It is a grand attempt to bridge cosmology, fundamental physics, and the emergence of mind. The key ideas are summarized in Table 1 for clarity, and elaborated below.

ConceptDescription in Messori’s Model
TensionA primordial, irreducible ontological presupposition – an intrinsic “force” or tendency at the foundation of realityfile-sv1qhw4vefeal8t3hvbdhv. Tension exists prior to any physical energy. It drives the differentiation of dynamis and persists as the opposing forces in processes (e.g. resistance vs. change).
DynamisAn undifferentiated, pre-energetic proto-dynamic principle associated with Tensionfile-sv1qhw4vefeal8t3hvbdhv. Dynamis is totipotent: it contains all potential for development. When Tension causes dynamis to differentiate, it gives birth to a system of interactions that form space-time and matter.
Differentiated Tensorial FractalsAlso called “tangent tensions”, these are mass- and energy-free physical objects that result from differentiated dynamisfile-sv1qhw4vefeal8t3hvbdhv. They are essentially structured patterns or “fractal” units that have specific properties (e.g. what we perceive as particles or localized structures). They carry tangent (touching) interactions – the building blocks of the observable world.
Undifferentiated Tensorial FractalsAlso called “qualia”, these are the complementary aspect of dynamis differentiationfile-sv1qhw4vefeal8t3hvbdhv. Unlike tangent tensions, qualia are not localized mass/energy but rather quality-like aspects – undifferentiated, subtle “proto-experiential” fragments. In Messori’s usage, qualia are fundamental physical entities (not just mental sensations) representing the undifferentiated side of reality. They imbue the world with qualities and are crucial in information and experience.
Holographic-Fractal Space-TimeThe fundamental structure of reality is holographic and fractal. Messori invokes the holographic principle and fractal self-similarity to describe how tensorial fractals organize in space-timefile-sv1qhw4vefeal8t3hvbdhv. Space-time itself is a continuum of tension – a “warp” with no fixed coordinates until processes define themfile-9xe2pbhpqp4r7eogwnn4qj. It is configured holographically (each part contains information about the whole) and fractally (patterns repeat at multiple scales). He even cites a specific topology: a Haramein-Rauscher dual torus structure, with a twisting torque that creates a spin or twisting motionfile-sv1qhw4vefeal8t3hvbdhv. This torque (twisting tension) is central in shaping the dynamics of space-time.
Physical Dimensions & TransitionsReality is stratified into multiple planes or dimensions of manifestation, which in Messori’s model include: the Irreducible Relativistic Dimension (IRD), the Reducible Relativistic Dimension (RRD), the Quantum Dimension (QD), and a Hyper-Middle Dimension (H-MD)file-34dym9g6hjx5qqe9cgrp9d. These correspond loosely to classical space-time, emergent matter, quantum realm, and higher-order subtle realms. Transitions from one dimension/plane to another are achieved by symmetry-breaking events that redistribute the underlying potentials. Specifically, Messori describes transitions as changes in the non-linear relationships between a monopolar tensorial potential, a dipolar tensorial potential, and a kinetic potentialfile-sv1qhw4vefeal8t3hvbdhv. In simpler terms, a shift in the balance of forces and symmetry at the fundamental level “flips” the system into a new regime (for example, from a non-excited ground state to an excited state that yields energy and space-time). These transitions create “event-horizons” – boundaries that determine what is observable in each dimensionfile-34dym9g6hjx5qqe9cgrp9d.
Poietic FunctionThe term “poietic” comes from the Greek poiesis (to make). In Messori’s framework, the poietic function is the auto-organizational principle of the cosmosfile-34dym9g6hjx5qqe9cgrp9d. It’s an original, universal drive that produces development and structure – essentially a creative, generative force building order. This is similar to the idea of self-organization in complex systems or what some might call an “autopoietic” tendency of nature to form complex structures from simplicity.
Syntropic FunctionSyntropy is the opposite of entropy – it denotes convergence, increasing order, or negentropy. The syntropic function in Messori’s model is embodied by attractors or “syntropic nuclei”file-34dym9g6hjx5qqe9cgrp9d. These attractors are physical objects (in a broad sense) that induce coherence in a system – they pull chaos into order. In other words, the syntropic function is what organizes and maintains structure against the tendency to disorder. Messori notes that without something to counter pure entropy, the universe would trend toward thermal equilibrium and decay; attractors (or syntropic centers) help bring forth organized complexityfile-34dym9g6hjx5qqe9cgrp9d. (In later sections he introduces a specific global attractor for the whole system – the Strange Holographic Attractor.)
Mnemotropic FunctionMnemotropic literally means “memory-turning” (from mneme, memory). The mnemotropic function is Messori’s crucial addition: it represents the influence of memory in physical processesfile-34dym9g6hjx5qqe9cgrp9dfile-34dym9g6hjx5qqe9cgrp9d. This doesn’t mean personal memory, but rather the general tendency for processes to be influenced by past states or information (analogous to how hysteresis or memory effects occur in materials). By introducing mnesic (memory) processes into the cosmic dynamic, Messori gives his model a form of causal continuity and information feedback beyond simple cause-effect. The mnemotropic function provides a kind of “record” or imprint that can guide the development of systems, allowing the past to inform the present in unpredictable waysfile-34dym9g6hjx5qqe9cgrp9d. It’s a source of novelty and also enables systems to transcend their immediate boundaries (since memory can bridge across time and space in this view).
Mnemopoiesis (MOPS)This is Messori’s proposed term for the overall ordering principle that results from the joint action of the three functions above (poietic, syntropic, mnemotropic) operating through a holographic modulefile-sv1qhw4vefeal8t3hvbdhvfile-34dym9g6hjx5qqe9cgrp9d. Etymologically: mnem- (memory), -o- (holographic), -poiesis (creation, ordering; also with -sis as syntropic) – hence MOPSfile-34dym9g6hjx5qqe9cgrp9d. Mnemopoiesis is defined as an “a-intentional, articulate and complex ordering function”file-sv1qhw4vefeal8t3hvbdhv, meaning it creates order without any conscious intent or external designer. It is not random – it’s highly structured – but it doesn’t have goal-oriented intent like a mind would. In Messori’s view, what we normally call consciousness is actually a particular case of mnemopoiesisfile-sv1qhw4vefeal8t3hvbdhv. Human consciousness arises when the poietic, syntropic, and mnemotropic functions operate together (via the holographic/fractal architecture of the brain and environment) to produce a self-organizing, memory-informed process. He thus prefers to use “state of mnemopoiesis” instead of “state of consciousness” when speaking in general termsfile-34dym9g6hjx5qqe9cgrp9d. An altered state of consciousness, for instance, would be described as a change in the relational structure of the current mnemopoietic statefile-34dym9g6hjx5qqe9cgrp9d (e.g., different synergy between the three functions, or a disruption in the holographic coupling).
Strange Holographic Attractor (HoSA)To account for the global coordination of the system across different scales and dimensions, Messori introduces a single strange attractor that spans all the dimensional levels. He calls this the Holographic Strange Attractor (HoSA)file-34dym9g6hjx5qqe9cgrp9d. A strange attractor, in chaos theory, is a complex pattern toward which a chaotic system evolves; it’s “strange” because it has a fractal structure and orbits unpredictably around it. Messori’s HoSA operates holographically – meaning it influences all levels (from fundamental pre-space to quantum to relativistic) in a correlated way. It is essentially the unique ordering attractor for the universe’s dynamic. Its action “varies according to the polarization angle” between three event-horizons that mark the transitions EIRD→RRD→QD→H-MDfile-34dym9g6hjx5qqe9cgrp9d. In simpler terms, as the system moves from one domain to another (e.g., from the fundamental tension field into classical physical reality or quantum realm), the attractor’s influence shifts in character, but it’s ultimately one holistic attractor underlying them all. Messori describes the HoSA with iterative algorithms, indicating it has an internal hysteresis (memory-dependent) statefile-34dym9g6hjx5qqe9cgrp9dfile-34dym9g6hjx5qqe9cgrp9d. This means the attractor’s current behavior depends on its past behavior (reinforcing the role of memory). In fact, he gives a mathematical form involving a complex iteration with a Fibonacci sequence input and a variable c that can be real/imaginary and ±, governed by a hysteresis-based differential equationfile-34dym9g6hjx5qqe9cgrp9dfile-34dym9g6hjx5qqe9cgrp9d. (The details are technical, but conceptually it implies the attractor constantly “recombines” information from past states to guide future states – hence truly a memory-informed driver of cosmic evolution.)
Transitions Across DimensionsWith the HoSA in place, the phenomenology of transitions between different physical dimensions can be understood. Messori outlines distinct regimes: a Non-Excited IRD (N-EIRD), an Excited IRD (EIRD), and further transitions to the RRD, QD, and H-MDfile-34dym9g6hjx5qqe9cgrp9d. Each transition is triggered by breaking a symmetry in the tension dynamics. For example, the step from a non-excited fundamental state to an excited state (i.e., creating the relativistic space-time we live in) is described as an N-EIRD→EIRD transition – essentially the “Big Bang” in these terms. At that moment, the fundamental tension (monopolar, undifferentiated) splits into a dynamic with polarities – yielding things like the Coriolis force, spin, and the first differentiations of space and timefile-9xe2pbhpqp4r7eogwnn4qjfile-9xe2pbhpqp4r7eogwnn4qj. Later transitions (EIRD→RRD, RRD→QD, etc.) involve further differentiation: e.g., the emergence of energy and matter, quantum granularity, etc., all explained as a re-distribution of tensorial potentials (monopolar vs dipolar vs kinetic)file-sv1qhw4vefeal8t3hvbdhv. In essence, Messori provides a unified story: from a timeless, spaceless “in-fused” tension state, a series of symmetry-breaks give rise to time, space, energy, and eventually the complexity that allows consciousness. Each stage is still connected via the holographic attractor and retains traces (memory) of the previous, which is crucial for higher-order phenomena like life and mind.

Consciousness as Mnemopoietic Process

Under this model, human consciousness is de-anthropomorphized and reframed as a special case of mnemopoiesis. Messori emphasizes that while we normally think of consciousness in anthropocentric terms (tied to brain, self-awareness, etc.), at root it may be a universal phenomenon of ordered, memory-laden processingfile-sv1qhw4vefeal8t3hvbdhv. However, he is careful to say that human consciousness is still unique to our biological and cultural context – it’s “in no way transferable outside of the phylogenetic and anthropological collocation of the biological system Homo”file-sv1qhw4vefeal8t3hvbdhv. In other words, the general principles (MOPS) are universal, but the particular way they manifest in a human brain and experience is unique and not a generic property of rocks or other animals in the same form.

Still, the implication is profound: if mnemopoiesis is a universal process, then proto-consciousness or proto-experiential activity pervades the cosmos (via qualia, memory, attractors, etc.), long before brains arrived. Messori aligns here with ideas of thinkers like Alfred North Whitehead (who spoke of an “original or proto-consciousness” in nature)file-sv1qhw4vefeal8t3hvbdhv. The difference is Messori attempts a rigorous physical explanation for it.

Mnemotropic Configurations and Nonlocal Interactions

A particularly interesting aspect, which will be relevant for ITC, is Messori’s discussion of mnemotropic configurations and their potential nonlocal interactions. In Part IV, he explores how mnemotropic processes can relate different systems across space-time. The phenomenology of mnemotropic configurations suggests that the space-time event-horizon (the “boundary” of what is happening in one realm) can be related or coupled to various confinement processes (i.e. local systems) via memory-based interactionsfile-cxsrxvec3caq14mvmenmrf.

He states that the “auto-reorganization” (poietic) and syntropic (attractor-based) processes organize local phenomena, but that these are mediated by mnemotropic processes that direct information by means of mnesic processes linking the event-horizon to the local systemsfile-cxsrxvec3caq14mvmenmrf. In simpler terms, memory links the global patterns to the local happenings. The Strange Holographic Attractor is key in implementing this link: it operates through an internal hysteresis (memory) state, effectively projecting influences across different scalesfile-cxsrxvec3caq14mvmenmrf.

Crucially, Messori acknowledges that nonlocal interference can occur: for instance, in certain altered states or paranormal phenomena, external mnemotropic patterns can interfere with an individual’s own patternsfile-34dym9g6hjx5qqe9cgrp9d. He writes that in meditation, shamanic practice, or even phenomena like ESP and possession, “non-local relationships of interference” can be established between an individual’s configurations and “mnemotropic configurations extraneous to him/her”file-34dym9g6hjx5qqe9cgrp9d. These interactions can be fleeting or lasting, and can have benign or harmful consequencesfile-34dym9g6hjx5qqe9cgrp9d. This is essentially a description of information/energy exchange between different conscious systems across space-time, enabled by the fundamental memory-based connectivity of reality.

Such statements in Messori’s work directly foreshadow a theoretical allowance for things like spirit communication or any interaction between a living consciousness and a nonlocal entity. If a human mind (as a mnemopoietic configuration) can interfere with or be interfered by an external configuration nonlocally, then the door is open – in principle – for communication with disembodied or distant consciousness, provided the right conditions or resonances are achieved.

In summary, Messori’s cosmogonic model provides:

  • A unified ontology where matter, mind, and information are deeply intertwined (via tension, fractals, qualia, memory).
  • A view of consciousness not as an emergent byproduct of brain alone, but as the result of universal ordering functions that the brain happens to harness in a particular wayfile-sv1qhw4vefeal8t3hvbdhv.
  • Concrete mechanisms (holographic attractors, symmetry-break transitions, etc.) for how different levels of reality communicate or transform into one another.
  • Recognition that memory (mnemotropy) injects a form of non-deterministic continuity that can connect events across time and space in unexpected waysfile-34dym9g6hjx5qqe9cgrp9d.

This rich theoretical scaffold can now be applied to the puzzling phenomena of ITC and EVP. These phenomena might be reinterpreted as special cases of mnemopoietic interactions across normally separate domains (the living and the “afterlife”, or the material and the non-material). In the next section, we briefly review ITC methods and then explore how Messori’s concepts shed light on their operation.

Instrumental Transcommunication (ITC) Techniques: Mainstream and Overlooked

Instrumental Transcommunication refers to attempts to communicate with non-physical entities or consciousness (commonly thought to be spirits of the deceased, but also sometimes other-dimensional beings) using electronic devices as a medium. Electronic Voice Phenomena (EVP) – unexplained voices found on recordings – is one subset of ITC, focused on audio. Over the decades, ITC has expanded to include telephone calls, radio messages, visual images on TVs or computer screens, and more. Here we summarize key techniques and milestones in ITC, ranging from widely used “mainstream” methods to more experimental or niche approaches:

  • Early EVP via Audio Recorders (Passive Method): The classic EVP method involves running a tape or digital recorder in a quiet (or white noise) environment and later inspecting the recording for voices that were not heard live. The field arguably began with Friedrich Jürgenson in 1959. While recording bird songs, Jürgenson later heard a male voice and his deceased mother’s voice on the tape, speaking to him – an event which essentially launched modern EVP researchtheafterdarkproject.blogspot.com. In the 1960s, Dr. Konstantin Raudive, a Latvian psychologist, systematically studied EVP, ultimately amassing tens of thousands of recorded voice snippets under controlled conditionstheafterdarkproject.blogspot.com. These early efforts typically relied on simple setups: a microphone or recorder in an empty room, or a radio tuned between stations to provide background static. Many EVPs are brief (one word or a short phrase) and often require enhanced listening to discernen.wikipedia.org. (Mainstream status: Very widespread; this is the foundational ITC technique.)*
  • Radio Noise and Diode Receivers: It was quickly noticed by early researchers that having a source of random noise (like radio static) tended to enhance the chances of capturing EVPsidigitalmedium.comidigitalmedium.com. The randomness provides a kind of “audio canvas” upon which anomalous voices can form. However, using an ordinary radio raises the risk of picking up stray broadcasts (which could be mistaken for spirit voices). In 1968, physicist Alexandre Schneider suggested a solution to Raudive: use a simple diode circuit instead of a radio tuneridigitalmedium.com. A germanium diode can act as a crude radio wave detector without being tuned to any station – effectively it converts ambient electromagnetic noise directly into a weak audio signal. Schneider’s diode device was “a simple circuit that could only pick up transmissions from the immediate area surrounding the device”, eliminating distant radio interferenceidigitalmedium.com. Raudive adopted this “diode receiver” approach and even traveled with a little “diode box” for experimentsidigitalmedium.com. In London tests in 1969, his diode box (just a matchbox-sized gadget with a wire antenna) successfully recorded anomalous voices, convincing publishers to support his famous book Breakthroughidigitalmedium.comidigitalmedium.com. The diode method remains popular among EVP enthusiasts as a way to gather raw noise uncontaminated by human speech or music. (Mainstream status: Moderate; known in ITC circles since Raudive’s work, and still in use, though not as famous as “ghost boxes”.)*
  • Direct Radio Voice (DRV) and Spirit Radios: Separately from EVPs that only appear on playback, there have been claims of direct voice communication through radio apparatus. One notable case is Marcello Bacci of Italy, who starting in the 1940s used an old vacuum-tube radio to allow people to hear voices of their departed loved ones in real-timetheafterdarkproject.blogspot.com. Bacci would tune the radio to an empty frequency (producing just static) and allegedly, voices (often recognized by visitors as their deceased family members) would fade in and converse. According to accounts, Bacci’s sessions were witnessed by many and even tested by researchers (who reported that voices still emerged from the speaker even when they removed or shielded internal components of the radio)theafterdarkproject.blogspot.com. This Direct Radio Voice phenomenon overlaps with EVP but is distinct in that the communication is heard live, not just on tape. In the history of ITC, Bacci’s work is legendary, though difficult to replicate reliably. (Mainstream status: Well-known historically, but true DRV success is rare; most researchers stick to recording EVP rather than expecting live voice.)*
  • Spiricom and Sound Shaping Devices: In the late 1970s and early 1980s, a more technology-intensive approach was tried by American engineers William O’Neil and George Meek. They developed the Spiricom, an apparatus that generated a set of audio tones spanning the human speech range (roughly 29 tones from 131 to 701 Hz) as a carrier signalen.wikipedia.org. The idea was to provide spirits with a “raw sound” which they could manipulate (shaping the tone output into words). O’Neil claimed that using Spiricom, he held two-way conversations with a deceased scientist, Dr. George Mueller, over several yearsen.wikipedia.orgen.wikipedia.org. They even released over 20 hours of audio recordings along with technical schematics of the Spiricom device to the publictheafterdarkproject.blogspot.com. While the device famously produced a buzzy, robotic voice purported to be Mueller (with O’Neil’s voice audible interacting), skeptics note that no one else has replicated these results, and the case remains controversialen.wikipedia.org. Nonetheless, the Spiricom represents “sound shaping” in ITC: rather than relying solely on random noise, it creates a structured audio environment (like a monotone buzzing with harmonic frequencies) for an otherworldly communicator to modulate. In later years, others have tried variations of this theme – for instance, playing back fragments of human speech, vowel sounds, or even running speech in reverse, to supply a palette of phonetic elements that could be reassembled into messages. (One modern software, EVPmaker by Stefan Bion, released in 2000, randomizes small chunks of audio such as syllables or allophones to produce a babble that spirits might coalesce into coherent speechtheafterdarkproject.blogspot.com.) The rationale is to reduce false positives (the source audio itself has no intelligible speech) while offering something easier to influence than pure static. (Mainstream status: Spiricom itself is famous but regarded as an outlier; however, the general idea of providing raw sound for spirits to use has influenced many ITC experiments since – including modern smartphone apps that generate gibberish for potential transformation.)*
  • Radio Sweep Devices (Frank’s Box / Ghost Box): A very popular ITC tool in the 21st century is the “ghost box”, which rapidly scans radio frequencies and outputs a stream of brief audio bits from many stations. The first was Frank’s Box, created in 2002 by Frank Sumption (who claimed he was guided by spirits in the design)en.wikipedia.org. Essentially, it’s a combination of a white-noise generator and an AM radio receiver that sweeps across the dial continuouslyen.wikipedia.org. The result sounds like “shhhhh… [snip] … [snip] … shhhhh” – a choppy blend of static and microsecond glimpses of broadcasts. The theory is that spirits can manipulate either the timing of the sweep or the selection of bits such that coherent phrases emerge across the snippets. Many ghost hunters and ITC practitioners have adopted ghost boxes for real-time communication: one asks a question and listens for an answer amid the chatter. Skeptics liken this to an auditory Ouija board – the ear picks out meaningful bits from randomnessen.wikipedia.org (an example of pareidolia or apopheniaen.wikipedia.org). Believers counter that often direct, contextually appropriate answers come, sometimes even using words that were not in any radio broadcast. Regardless, the ghost box is a staple of contemporary ITC. Variants include the “PSB-7” spirit box (a small handheld radio scanner) and apps that mimic the effect with shuffled audio databases. (Mainstream status: Very high in ghost hunting subculture since the mid-2000s; ghost boxes are common investigative gear.)*
  • Reverse EVP and Linguistic Experiments: An “often-overlooked” subset of EVP research involves using pre-transmitted speech in a way that any normal interpretation is removed, to see if anomalous voices can still form. One example is playing human speech in reverse or in a foreign language as the background soundtrack during an EVP session. The idea is that if you play, say, an English spoken phrase backwards (which sounds like gibberish) or have a background of foreign speech you don’t understand, any intelligent reply you hear in your native language truly cannot be mistaken radio or stray words (since the source had none). Researchers like Sonia Rinaldi have tried feeding such raw material and have reported that voices speaking in the target language still appear, effectively “overwriting” the gibberish. Another example is the software EVPmaker (mentioned above) which often uses a foreign language recording as the source to chop up – ensuring that any recognizable English words in the output were not originally there, but possibly formed by an outside influence. These techniques are essentially refining the sound shaping concept with a linguistic twist: they attempt to rule out normal explanations by design, leaving only a narrow channel by which unexplained information could manifest. (Mainstream status: Low to moderate; these are mostly experimental methods within dedicated ITC circles, not as famous as plain EVP or ghost boxes.)*
  • Visual ITC – Video Loop Feedback: ITC is not limited to audio. Pioneers have extended it to visual media, attempting to capture images of spirits or distant realms. In 1985, Klaus Schreiber in Germany famously produced the first reported video ITC imagestheafterdarkproject.blogspot.comtheafterdarkproject.blogspot.com. Schreiber’s method was elegantly simple: he set up a video camera pointed at its own output on a television, creating a feedback loop (the camera sees whatever the TV displays, and the TV displays what the camera sees – an analog feedback). By adjusting the zoom and angles, he got a swirling, abstract pattern on the screen. Within this moving visual noise, distinct faces appeared on the TV – faces that were recognized as deceased individuals (including some famous persons and some of Schreiber’s relatives). He captured these by photographing the TV screen. Schreiber’s work was reproduced by a few others and documented by researchers like Adolf Homes and Dr. Ernst Senkowski, bringing visual ITC into the lexicon. The term “Instrumental Transcommunication” was in fact popularized by Senkowski to encompass these new forms (not just audio EVP). The video feedback loop method produces uncanny, ghostly images: one might see a face, figure, or scene form for a few frames and then dissipate. It’s essentially a visual analog of using noise for EVP. (Mainstream status: Known in ITC research but not widely outside it; requires more equipment and patience than audio EVP, so fewer practitioners use it routinely.)*
  • Visual ITC – Other Methods (Water, Mirrors, Face Morphing): Beyond the video loop, experimenters have tried many creative techniques to let images manifest: shining lights into moving water and taking photos, swirling liquids or smoke, using distorted mirrors or screens, etc. For example, reflection on water or even the interplay of light on vapor can create random patterns where faces might form – similar to scrying but with a camera to capture results. A modern approach is face morphing ITC: an experimenter might take two different human faces (or a face and a blank mask) and use computer software to morph between them slowly, recording each intermediate frame. The morphing provides a “nearly-face” pattern that is constantly changing. Some have reported that in the middle of these morph sequences, unexpected third faces appear – not belonging to either source image – possibly of discarnate individuals. Brazilian researcher Sonia Rinaldi has used a variant of this: she might invite alleged spirit collaborators to imprint on video by providing human facial animations or even 3D head models as a template. Rinaldi also reports success using water vapor mist illuminated by light and captured in photos – faces of departed people show up in the patterns of the mist, verified by their loved ones. These are examples of “visual ITC” where technology and randomness intersect to possibly allow an outside influence to form coherent images. (Mainstream status: Experimental; a handful of researchers explore this, but it’s not as commonly practiced as EVP due to the complexity. However, some practitioners (like Rinaldi) have had notable success, bringing more attention to it in recent years.)*
  • Newer ITC Modalities: ITC continuously evolves with technology. There have been reports of anomalous text messages, phone calls, and even interactions with computers (for instance, the famous 1990s Scole Experiment in the UK claimed images appeared on unused camera film and messages on computer disks; an earlier case in 1984, Ken Webster’s “Dodleston messages”, involved a home computer receiving texts seemingly from the 16th century and from entities claiming to be in 2109). In recent years, smartphone apps (like EchoVox, SpiritCom, etc.) have become a modern “Ouija”, providing sound banks or sensor output for purported spirit use. Even high-tech approaches like using random event generators (REGs), lasers, or quantum devices are being explored by a few (e.g., the Illuminoss Project experimenting with photons). These newer ventures are still on the fringe, but they echo the same theme: using an instrument as a bridge or translator between our physical world and an unseen intelligence.

To summarize the landscape: ITC techniques span audio (EVP, radios, ghost boxes, sound modulation), visual (feedback loops, optical patterns), and even cross-modal forms. Table 2 provides a comparison of some major ITC methodologies, along with how we might interpret their function in light of Messori’s theoretical framework (which we will discuss in the next section).

ITC MethodDescription & Notable UseMessori Model Interpretation
Passive EVP (Recorder & Mic)Recording audio in a quiet or white-noise environment; voices appear on playback without being heard livetheafterdarkproject.blogspot.com. Classic cases: Jürgenson 1959, Raudive 1960s. Enhancement: slight background noise (fan, radio static) often used.In Messori’s terms, the recorder + ambient noise forms a simple confinement system where undifferentiated noise (random signal) can be in-formed by an external influence. The background noise provides a medium of tension fluctuations – essentially a canvas of micro Tension variations. A nonlocal mnemotropic configuration (e.g. a discarnate mind) could imprint a pattern on this noise via the Holographic Strange Attractor (which connects different domains). The result is a localized qualia pattern (the voice) emerging in the recording. The process is a specific instance of mnemopoiesis: memory/information from an external source ordering the randomness into a meaningful pattern.
Diode Receiver EVPA germanium diode circuit acts as an “antenna” to pick up only local EM noise (no broadcast signals)idigitalmedium.com. Connected to recorder; yields faint whispers or replies.By stripping away external signals, the diode method creates a clean space of quantum noise – essentially tapping the quantum dimension (QD) fluctuations directly. According to Messori’s model, memory and tension exist even at the nanoscalefile-34dym9g6hjx5qqe9cgrp9d; thus, a diode might pick up undifferentiated tensorial fractals (qualia-like fluctuations) more directly. Any coherent voice that appears is likely due to direct modulation of the local tensorial potential by a nonlocal source. In effect, the diode + recorder becomes a basic holographic module where an external attractor can modulate the tension into audible form. This method aligns with the idea of minimizing extraneous attractors so that only the intended (strange attractor’s) influence is present.
Radio Static / Direct RadioTuning between stations to get loud static, or using untuned radios (as in Bacci’s sessions)theafterdarkproject.blogspot.com. Sometimes voices fade in live (DRV), or appear on recording.Here the noise is higher-energy (radio EM spectrum) and the device (radio) is a more complex system. The static can be seen as a far-from-equilibrium state – the radio’s amplifier is active but with no structured input. In Messori’s view, a far-from-equilibrium, dynamic system is ripe for auto-organization via attractors. The spirit or external mind could serve as a syntropic nucleus that pulls the electronic noise into a coherent oscillation (a voice signal)file-34dym9g6hjx5qqe9cgrp9d. Live voices heard would indicate a strong, immediate coupling – potentially the system entering an excited state resonant with the external mnemotropic pattern. The radio apparatus, with its amplifier and speaker, essentially magnifies subtle tension patterns into macroscopic sound (akin to how a small signal in a radio gets amplified). Messori’s model would consider this a resonant coupling across an event-horizon: the radio’s state becomes coupled to a nonlocal state via the Strange Attractor that bridges dimensions.
Spiricom / Sound CarriersSupplying a tailored audio signal (tone matrix, human voice-like hum) for spirits to use as a carriertheafterdarkproject.blogspot.com. O’Neil’s Spiricom is the classic example, claiming sustained two-way dialogue.Providing structured sound is like pre-seeding the system with differentiated fractal patterns that resemble the form of a voice (harmonic tones correspond to formant frequencies of speech). In Messori’s framework, this could make it easier for an external influence to produce audible communication because it doesn’t have to conjure a voice ex nihilo but only modulate what’s already there. The Spiricom tones create a semi-stable attractor (a monotone drone); a spirit influence would introduce perturbations – effectively breaking the symmetry of that tone in an intelligent way (imposing amplitude and frequency changes corresponding to speech). This can be viewed as toggling the system between slightly different tensorial states (the continuous tone vs. the shaped voice) through interference. It leverages the poietic function as well: the device “makes” a structure and the spirit’s influence completes the creation (poiesis) of meaningful communication. However, maintaining such coupling might require precise conditions (hence the difficulty replicating Spiricom). Messori’s concept of hysteresis (path-dependence) might also explain why once O’Neil established contact, it persisted (memory effect), but others starting fresh could not – the mnemotropic link wasn’t there.
Radio Sweep (Ghost Box)Continuously scanning radio stations to produce fragments of speech and noiseen.wikipedia.org. Users hear disjointed bits, from which answers may form in real-time.The ghost box provides a rapid series of micro-inputs – essentially a chaotic stream of semi-random content. This can be likened to a chaotic attractor that constantly moves through state-space (each snippet is a new state). According to Messori, the HoSA (Holographic Strange Attractor) governs dynamics across dimensions; if an intelligence is trying to communicate, it could subtly bias the scanning process via the attractor. One way: influencing the timing so that meaningful clips coincide to form a message. In effect, the ghost box system plus the operator’s question create an open system where the attractor might align certain qualia (e.g., a particular word) at just the right moment. The user’s mind also plays a role – their perception (qualia) completes the pattern by hearing the message. Messori’s model allows for syntropy through meaning: the attractor could drive the system toward a state that “makes sense” to the listener (i.e., a reduction in entropy from random noise to an intelligible phrase). In more mechanistic terms, the radio sweep might amplify the background mnemotropic noise of the environment; a spirit’s presence (as a mnemotropic configuration) might modulate the probability of certain bits appearing, effectively using the device as a proxy voice.
Reverse/Transform EVPUsing input audio that is incomprehensible (reversed speech, foreign language, chopped syllables) so any clear output must be anomaloustheafterdarkproject.blogspot.com. The spirit is expected to reorganize this into meaningful speech.This technique explicitly tests the information-adding capability of the alleged communicators. Messori’s ontology would suggest that if consciousness (or a disembodied mind) interacts, it does so by imparting memory/information into physical substrates. By providing a jumbled substrate, we challenge the communicator to impose significant order (since none exists initially). In theory, a spirit could leverage the existing sound elements (phonemes) by mnemotropic influence – essentially recalling the pattern of a desired phrase and imprinting it. We might analogize this to how the Strange Attractor algorithm recombines inputs (Messori’s iteration formula uses Fibonacci addition and a variable c to generate new structurefile-34dym9g6hjx5qqe9cgrp9d). Likewise, an EVPmaker session might recombine gibberish in a new way. A successful result (coherent speech) would illustrate mnemopoiesis in action: memory-driven creation of order. It also highlights qualia: the qualitative aspect of the sound changes from meaningless to meaningful, implying the injection of qualia (undifferentiated fractals) that carry semantic weight.
Visual ITC – Video FeedbackA camera pointing at its own output, generating swirling patterns on-screen; still frames sometimes show distinct faces or scenestheafterdarkproject.blogspot.com. Pioneered by Schreiber in 1985.The video loop is essentially a nonlinear optical system with internal feedback – a fertile ground for chaotic dynamics and fractal patterns. It’s literally a holographic scenario (each small change is fed back and can affect the whole screen pattern). In Messori’s terms, this is a playground for the holographic attractor (HoSA) to manifest imagery. The faces that appear can be seen as self-organized forms guided by an external mind or by the experimenter’s intention. The camera/TV loop creates a fractal space-time within the device – a microcosm that could tap into the larger fractal holographic space-time Messori describesfile-9xe2pbhpqp4r7eogwnn4qjfile-9xe2pbhpqp4r7eogwnn4qj. If a discarnate consciousness has a certain form (memory of its face, for example), it might impress that form onto the swirling noise by influencing the feedback subtly at each iteration (analogous to how iterative algorithms build an image). This would be a direct example of qualia (the appearance of a face) coupling with a physical process. The attractor would ensure that out of the infinite chaotic possibilities, the system stabilizes temporarily on an image that corresponds to the external influence. Once the influence passes, the system returns to chaos (hence the transient nature of the images). In short, the video ITC is a holographic canvas for mnemopoietic expression – images from memory (spirit memory) projected into electronic visual patterns.
Visual ITC – Faces in Water/MorphingUsing fluid patterns (water, smoke) or morphing two images to invite a new face to form. Photographs sometimes reveal faces of deceased persons not present in the original setup. Example: Rinaldi’s experiments capturing “extra” faces in morphing sequences.These methods rely on pareidolia-like random patterns, but with the expectation of an outside signal. Messori’s framework would treat the fluid dynamic or digital morph as a dynamical system open to perturbation. Water, for instance, is a complex medium sensitive to tiny fluctuations (a thought here of the old idea of water memory, though contested, resonates with mnemotropy). A spirit intending to show a face could subtly affect the way light refracts in moving water at a given instant, or the way a morphing algorithm interpolates features. The result is essentially a cross-dimensional projection: the image (a qualitative pattern) from the “memory domain” is projected onto the physical plane via modulation of a process. In Messori’s terms, the differentiated fractals (the pixels or water droplets) are rearranged to resemble the undifferentiated pattern of the person’s face (the qualia of that identity). It’s like forcing a symmetry break toward a specific form. The Strange Attractor might here act as a template that the system briefly follows – a form of resonance between the desired image and the stochastic process. That could also explain why often the resulting faces are not 100% photographic: they are approximations shaped by the available material and the degree of influence. Nonetheless, when clear correspondences occur (e.g., multiple witnesses recognize the face), it implies a successful mnemopoietic transfer of information (the identity/appearance) into the medium.

Table 2: Comparison of various ITC techniques and their reinterpretation via Messori’s cosmogonic model. Each method’s traditional description is given, along with an explanation of how Messori’s concepts (tension, attractors, mnemotropy, qualia, etc.) might underlie the phenomena observed.

As we see, Messori’s theoretical ideas map remarkably well onto the diverse landscape of ITC methods. The common theme is that information (meaningful pattern) is extracted from randomness or weak signals, and Messori provides a mechanism for how that is possible: through the action of a memory-infused ordering principle (MOPS) working via a holographic attractor that spans physical domains. In the Messori view, no clear line is drawn between “physical” and “mental” – they are part of one continuum of process – which is precisely what ITC phenomena seem to hint at.

Theoretical Reinterpretation of ITC/EVP through Messori’s Ontology

With the groundwork laid, we can now explicitly reinterpret ITC and EVP phenomena in terms of Messori’s cosmogonic model:

  • Nonlocal Communication as Mnemopoietic Interaction: ITC claims – be it a voice on a recorder or an image on a screen – essentially boil down to information appearing where it “shouldn’t”, as if another mind inserted it. In Messori’s terms, what is happening is an interaction between two mnemopoietic systems: the experimenter (with their devices) and the nonlocal entity (spirit or other consciousness). Normally, each physical system has its own mnemopoiesis (its own ongoing state of ordering). For instance, a tape recorder in an empty room will just faithfully record the room’s ambient noise – that is its self-contained mnemopoietic process (largely driven by the syntropic function of its electronics and whatever random environmental inputs occur). Likewise, a disembodied consciousness, if it exists, might be thought of as a free-standing mnemopoietic configuration on another plane – perhaps in the “Hyper-Middle Dimension” or simply not confined to a body. For communication to occur, these two processes must couple so that the external one can imprint on the local one. Messori’s model explicitly allows for such coupling: the holographic Strange Attractor provides a means for different systems to become correlated via underlying memory-based linksfile-cxsrxvec3caq14mvmenmrffile-cxsrxvec3caq14mvmenmrf. When an EVP is successfully recorded, we can say that the recorder’s state was momentarily entrained or perturbed by the external mind’s state, through the mediation of the attractor (which spans both the physical apparatus domain and the consciousness domain). This is essentially what Messori described in paranormal phenomena: “non-local relationships of interference… between mnemotropic configurations particular to the individual [or device], as well as mnemotropic configurations extraneous to him/her”file-34dym9g6hjx5qqe9cgrp9d. EVP could be considered a mild form of such interference, where the “possessing” influence is not taking over a person, but rather imprinting on an electronic medium.
  • Role of Mnemotropy (Memory) in ITC: One might ask, why would memory be relevant to ghostly voices? Consider that a discarnate entity, if it survives bodily death, is essentially a bundle of information – memories, personality, knowledge – with no physical brain. Messori’s concept of mnemotropy offers a clue: it implies that memory is not just a record but an active force that can shape processes. A spirit trying to speak may not have vocal cords, but it has the memory of speaking, the intention (which itself is structured by past experience), and perhaps even energetic patterns corresponding to its voice. If the fundamental fabric of reality is such that these memory-laden patterns persist (as undifferentiated fractals or qualia in the vacuum, for example), then they could influence physical systems via resonance. A simple analogy: a song stuck in your head (memory) can make you unconsciously hum it – here your memory causes a physical action. In ITC, the spirit’s memory of how to form words could resonate with the noise in a device to “hum” the pattern of that word. Mnemotropic processes direct information by means of memoryfile-cxsrxvec3caq14mvmenmrf – in EVP, the information (the content of the message) is directed into the recorder’s output. The recorder (or video) essentially becomes an extension of the mind temporarily. This blurs the line between psychic mediumship and device-mediated communication – in Messori’s view, both are species of mnemopoietic coupling (in one case a human brain is the device, in the other, an electronic circuit is).
  • Qualia and the Physicality of Experience: Messori’s usage of qualia as fundamental components of reality is very suggestive for ITC. In philosophy, qualia are the raw feels of conscious experience (the redness of red, the sound of a voice, etc.). If qualia are undifferentiated tensorial fractals per Messori, they exist objectively in his model, not just subjectively. A voice or an image that appears in ITC could be seen as qualia made manifest. For example, when an EVP voice says “Hello”, there is the auditory qualia of that voice (its tone, timbre, etc.) which presumably belonged to the person when alive. According to Messori, those qualia didn’t vanish – they are part of the tapestry of undifferentiated fractals. Communicating “Hello” from beyond might involve gathering those relevant qualia and injecting them into the recording device’s output. The device registers it as if it were real sound (and indeed, it becomes real sound in that moment). In a way, the spirit provides the qualia, and the device provides the differentiation into a signal. This partnership results in a perceivable phenomenon. Thus, ITC might be described as qualia transfer: the essence of an experience (voice, image) moves from a nonlocal store into local reality. Messori’s tension dynamics even accommodate how qualia can influence matter – through breaking symmetry and polarizing potentialsfile-sv1qhw4vefeal8t3hvbdhv. The qualia (undifferentiated potential) meeting the device’s circuit (differentiated structure) could cause a tiny symmetry-break in electrical noise, enough to generate a coherent blip corresponding to the qualia’s form (e.g. a waveform shaped like a voice syllable).
  • Strange Attractor as a “Bridge” or Transducer: The Holographic Strange Attractor (HoSA) in Messori’s model is effectively the unseen hand that maintains coherence across different scales and domains. We can think of it in ITC as the bridge mechanism that allows a thought to become sound or a mental image to become pixels. If we imagine the spirit realm (for lack of a better term) as one dynamical regime and the physical device as another, the HoSA links them so that patterns can echo between the two. Messori described the attractor’s action as depending on “polarization angle” between event-horizons of different dimensionsfile-34dym9g6hjx5qqe9cgrp9d. In EVP terms, this could relate to how well aligned the two sides are. Many ITC experimenters indeed stress alignment: the attitude of the experimenter, the intention, the energy in the room, etc., all need to be conducive (which in Messori’s terms might mean minimizing the angle between the “worlds”, i.e. finding a resonance). The attractor being “strange” (chaotic) is also important: it means the process is not strictly deterministic. This aligns with EVP experiences – you can never guarantee a result; there’s an element of unpredictability and spontaneity. But at the same time, the attractor has loci or preferred states (in chaos, a strange attractor has certain patterns that repeat). This could explain why certain phrases or phenomena often recur in ITC sessions (many researchers note that EVP voices have peculiar qualities or favorite expressions, as if constrained by something). The attractor might impose a kind of filter or shape on what can manifest, based on the underlying algorithm that Messori outlinedfile-34dym9g6hjx5qqe9cgrp9dfile-34dym9g6hjx5qqe9cgrp9d. One might speculate that the attractor ensures any cross-communication doesn’t violate fundamental physical laws too starkly – it finds a path of least resistance for information to cross over (like using existing noise, or brief moments of coherence).
  • Mnemopoiesis vs. Intentional Communication: Messori deliberately calls the ordering process “a-intentional”file-sv1qhw4vefeal8t3hvbdhv, meaning it does not require conscious intent to function. This raises a question: in ITC, are we seeing the results of a willed act by a spirit, or just an emergent coincidental coupling? Many EVP researchers firmly believe some entity is choosing to speak. Messori’s framework could accommodate both views. On one hand, the actual mechanism (mnemopoiesis via attractors) doesn’t need intent – it could be a natural resonance that occasionally happens, akin to how a random number generator might coincidentally spell out a word. On the other hand, if there is an intelligence involved, its intent would itself be part of its mnemotropic configuration, thus driving the coupling. Essentially, the spirit’s intent to communicate would reflect in the attractor dynamics as a bias that makes the outcome non-random. To put it simply: Messori’s model doesn’t violate physical law by injecting “will” directly; instead the will influences the memory-laden attractor state, which in turn influences the physical. So it stays within a (hypothetical) lawful framework while still allowing purposeful messages. This is an elegant way to reconcile intentional paranormal phenomena with a sort of naturalistic mechanism.
  • The “Space” Where ITC Happens – Middle Dimension? Messori’s inclusion of a Hyper and Middle Dimension (H-MD) is intriguing. He doesn’t fully detail it in the excerpt we have, but implies it’s a higher-order realm beyond quantum, possibly where syntropic and mnemotropic processes strongly manifest. One could speculate that this H-MD is analogous to what occult or spiritual literature calls the “astral” or an intermediate plane where thoughts are things. If so, ITC might be seen as tapping into H-MD. For instance, a ghost voice might originate in H-MD (as a pattern of tension/qualia) and then via the attractor drop into QD (fluctuations in electronic circuits) and then into RRD (audible sound). Messori’s transition sequence EIRD→RRD→QD→H-MDfile-34dym9g6hjx5qqe9cgrp9d suggests layers of reality that are embricated (nested or overlapping). It might be that the H-MD is the dimension of mind. When we use a device like a tape recorder with intention to catch a spirit voice, we are essentially inviting an H-MD influence to imprint on a RRD device via a QD process. This multi-layer interplay is complex, but Messori’s model provides a language for it. Traditional parapsychology talked about “psi” or “ectoplasm” as intermediate factors; here we talk about tensorial potentials and attractors instead.

In sum, Messori’s ontology gives a plausible schema for how ITC could be real: consciousness and memory are not confined to brains but are fundamental aspects of reality; under certain conditions, these can interact with physical systems via universal ordering principles. What appears to us as a ghostly voice might just be a particular configuration of the same cosmic processes that also give us ordinary consciousness – just manifesting in an unexpected place (a recording device rather than a brain).

This theoretical reinterpretation does more than satisfy curiosity – it points to new directions for research. By understanding ITC in terms of physical principles (albeit unorthodox ones), we can propose improvements or new experiments. The final section explores the practical implications of Messori’s model for ITC experimental design and ventures some speculative ideas for future devices that could enhance communication across the veil.

Practical Implications for ITC Experiment Design

Viewing ITC through Messori’s cosmogonic model suggests several concrete strategies to improve experiments or devise new ones. Here are some implications and recommendations for ITC practice, drawn from the theoretical insights:

  • Encouraging Mnemotropic Synergy: According to Messori, a strong mnemopoietic interaction requires synergy between the poietic, syntropic, and mnemotropic functionsfile-34dym9g6hjx5qqe9cgrp9dfile-34dym9g6hjx5qqe9cgrp9d. In an ITC context, this means our experimental setup should incorporate elements of creation/structure (poietic), convergence/coherence (syntropic), and memory/feedback (mnemotropic). Practically, this might translate to: (1) having a stable structure in the setup that favors order (e.g., a consistent background sound or a repeating visual pattern), (2) including an attractor or focal point that encourages coherence (e.g., using resonance or standing waves, or a clear intention set by the operators to “attract” communication), and (3) incorporating memory or feedback mechanisms (e.g., a loop system that feeds output back as input, or running sessions in a sequence where each builds on the prior by reusing the same noise – creating a hysteresis). An example design: an EVP session where the static from the last session is quietly played into the next session’s background – thus, any slight imprint from a voice in the first might carry over and amplify in the next. This leverages mnemotropy by literally using the memory of the system.
  • Exploiting Hysteresis and Memory Devices: Messori’s emphasis that “phenomena associated with memory are ubiquitous at the nanoscale”file-34dym9g6hjx5qqe9cgrp9d suggests we can use modern memory-rich materials to capture anomalies. One idea is to use memristors or magnetic storage elements in ITC devices. A memristor is an electronic component whose resistance changes based on past current (it “remembers” its history). If a spirit influence can alter an electronic state, a memristor network might retain that change more stably than a fleeting analog signal. We could build an array of memristors with noise input and later read out if any meaningful patterns (like specific resistance changes) emerged that correspond to intended communication. Similarly, using ferrofluid or magnetizable audio tape during an EVP session (not just after) might record subtle field changes beyond audible sounds. Hysteresis loops (loops of cause-effect that don’t return to the original state) are a core part of Messori’s model for how memory influences matterfile-34dym9g6hjx5qqe9cgrp9d. Designing circuits that inherently have hysteresis (like Schmitt triggers or relaxation oscillators) and seeing if their state flips in response to unseen prompts could be fruitful. Essentially, we want to capture and hold any anomaly, not let it slip by.
  • Tuning to Critical States (Edge of Chaos): Many ITC methods already inadvertently operate on the border between order and chaos (e.g., the fine line between random noise and a recognizable voice). Messori’s framework suggests that significant events (like transitions to new dimensions or emergence of form) happen at symmetry-breaking pointsfile-sv1qhw4vefeal8t3hvbdhv. An experimental implication is to tune systems to critical points where a small push can cause a big change. For example, in a radio, set it right at the threshold of picking up a station – it’s mostly static but almost locking onto a signal. At that point, a tiny influence could push it into clarity (maybe to deliver a word). In video ITC, use a camera feedback but adjust it to where a stable pattern is just about to form out of the swirl – again a small nudge might solidify an image. We might also use nonlinear feedback deliberately: for instance, set up a gain on an EVP microphone that is just below self-oscillation (a very high gain that almost makes the system ring). That precarious state could be more responsive to external fields or energies. The idea is similar to a balanced pencil – it falls with a whisper. A system on the verge of chaos could be highly sensitive to spirit influence (which might be a weak force normally).
  • Resonant Coupling and Toroidal Fields: Messori references a dual torus topology and torque in the structure of space-timefile-sv1qhw4vefeal8t3hvbdhv. Interestingly, some researchers (outside of mainstream science) have speculated that toroidal electromagnetic fields or rotating magnetic fields might interact with paranormal phenomena (this is reminiscent of theories by David Wilcock or the old “spirit comm” devices with spinning magnets). Based on Messori, one might design a Toroidal ITC Device: e.g., two nested coils forming a torus, generating a rotating magnetic field (to mimic the twist of space-time tension). Within or around this torus, one could place a recording device or a photomultiplier, etc. The hypothesis would be that the rotating field could create a kind of vortex in the physical vacuum that aligns with the fundamental tension dynamics, making it easier for a nonlocal influence to enter (essentially, an artificial event-horizon or portal between dimensions). This is speculative, but given Messori’s mention of torque and Coriolis force emerging during transitionsfile-9xe2pbhpqp4r7eogwnn4qjfile-9xe2pbhpqp4r7eogwnn4qj, a device that deliberately introduces a torque might facilitate a controlled transition. Practical test: have two such toroidal setups, one active (field on) and one control (off), and compare EVP or anomalous events captured.
  • Involving Human Consciousness as a Catalyst: While instrument-focused, ITC often acknowledges that the human operator (and any spirits) form part of the system. Messori’s model positions human consciousness as a particular mnemopoietic processfile-sv1qhw4vefeal8t3hvbdhv; thus, a human’s mental state can influence the coupling. The implication is to train or prepare operators (much like mediums) to achieve a conducive state of mind – perhaps a meditative, open state that might extend their own “event-horizon” to meet the device’s. An operator might also attempt to mentally focus on the device working, essentially providing a poietic impetus from their side. Moreover, Messori’s idea of anthropopoietic context suggests that cultural and psychological factors shape how consciousness manifestsfile-34dym9g6hjx5qqe9cgrp9dfile-34dym9g6hjx5qqe9cgrp9d. So an implication is: align the expectations and symbols used in ITC sessions with the communicators. For example, if trying to communicate with a deceased person, having familiar objects or images (physical memories) around could strengthen the mnemotropic link (this echoes the spiritualist practice of using trigger objects). From a design perspective, one could incorporate an operator feedback loop: perhaps a real-time visual of the noise that the operator can watch and psychically try to influence (becoming an active participant in the ordering process). This might enhance results, since you now have two attractors – the device’s and the human mind’s – working in tandem.
  • Cross-Modal Correlation Experiments: If Messori’s attractor truly links different domains, we might expect simultaneous anomalies in different channels when a strong interaction occurs. A practical approach is to set up multiple devices – say, an audio recorder, a video feedback loop, a random number generator, and an environmental sensor – all running during a session. If a contact occurs, we might detect coincident patterns: e.g., at the exact moment a voice is recorded, the random number generator deviates from chance or the video loop shows a flash of structure. This would provide powerful convergent evidence. It’s basically testing for a common cause behind different manifestations, that common cause being the influence from a higher dimension via the attractor. Engineers could sync the time-stamps of all devices to later align events. In practice, such experiments have been done occasionally (the Princeton Engineering Anomalies Research lab often used multiple REGs), but rarely in ITC specifically. Messori’s theory would predict that a burst of mnemopoietic interaction might indeed affect any system that is sensitive at that moment. Designing experiments to catch that is worthwhile. For instance, one could run a ghost box and a laser interferometer together (the latter to see if there’s a slight spatial distortion) – if a phrase comes through on the ghost box and simultaneously a tiny blip in the interferometer occurs, that’s hinting the same tension fluctuation did both.
  • Qualia-Based Detection and AI Analysis: Since qualia (undifferentiated fractals) are not directly measurable, we detect them only when they become differentiated into signals we recognize (sound, image). However, there may be subtle patterns in noise that human senses miss but machine learning could detect. Using AI, we can train models on known ITC outputs (EVP voices, etc.) to see if there are precursors in the raw data. For example, an AI might find that milliseconds before an EVP voice, there’s a distinctive pattern in the ultrasound range or in EM field readings. That could indicate the moment of tension influx. Armed with that, we could refine triggers for when to pay attention or even to dynamically adjust equipment (e.g., if AI detects a potential anomaly forming, it could automatically boost gain or start recording high-speed video, etc.). Additionally, generative AI might assist communicators: one futuristic notion is an AI that continuously monitors noise and amplifies anything that looks speech-like or face-like, effectively acting as an intermediate translator. One must be cautious – AI could also just impose pareidolia. But if guided properly (for instance, an AI that only amplifies but doesn’t invent patterns), it might enhance weak signals so we notice them. Messori’s model implies that such weak signals are indeed there (since tension fluctuations carry information at all scales), so giving them a boost could turn borderline phenomena into clear ones.

In implementing these ideas, it’s important to maintain scientific rigor: use controls, randomize when possible, and document everything. Messori’s model, while exotic, is still a physicalist one, meaning it expects consistency and causality (even if a subtle form of causality). So one should look for repeatability and rule out ordinary explanations first (noise contamination, radio interference, etc.). Over time, by tweaking experiments according to these principles, we might hone in on setups that reliably yield anomalies – essentially learning how to “tune” the interaction with whatever consciousness we aim to reach.

Speculative and Futuristic ITC Experiments Inspired by Messori’s Model

Looking ahead, we can imagine more radical ITC devices that explicitly draw on Messori’s theoretical concepts. Below is a range of speculative ideas for future experiments and instruments, pushing the envelope of what ITC could become if we take the cosmogonic model seriously:

  • Tensorial Field Coupler (“Tension Telephone”): A device that attempts direct coupling to the fundamental tension field. For instance, it could generate a controlled oscillating tension in a material – perhaps using crystal lattices under stress or piezoelectric rings that vibrate in a toroidal pattern – to act as a transmitter/receiver for tension-based signals. If Messori’s right, tension exists pre-energetically, so fluctuations in such a device might reach into that domain. The “Tension Telephone” might consist of two separated chambers connected by a super-cooled elastic medium or quantum acoustic resonator. We initiate a pulse in one (like a ping) and listen in the other for any modulated return signal that wasn’t physically sent. The hypothesis is that a spirit could alter the tension along this quasi-nonlocal conduit to send messages (like plucking a string that spans dimensions). This is inspired by the idea of a taut cosmic string of tension connecting realms. While extremely speculative, it’s a modern analogue to Edison’s dream of a device “sensitive enough” to pick up spirit influencestheafterdarkproject.blogspot.com – here sensitivity is achieved by tapping into the substrate of reality itself.
  • Mnemoptic Interface (Memory Harvester): Instead of trying to get a real-time voice, this device would aim to retrieve information (memories) from the environment or “Akashic record” (in mystical terms). Messori posits memory is preserved in physical processes; thus, events and thoughts might leave traces. A Mnemoptic device might use a combination of sensors (EM, gravitational, quantum) and compare readings to known patterns (like comparing current noise to past recordings). It could work akin to an EVP, but rather than asking a question and getting an immediate answer, you might request a specific past memory to manifest. For example, ask the device “show me an image of X from the past” and then run a process (like a fractal image generation seeded with current environmental noise) to see if that image emerges. Essentially, it’s like querying the cosmic memory through resonance. A practical way might be using retrocausal target practice: you decide on an image after the experiment, and see if any signature of it can be found in the data collected earlier (this draws on quantum retrocausality ideas). If the cosmos has a memory, perhaps it’s accessible in a subtle way. It’s far-fetched, but so is the notion of capturing ghost voices – yet people try.
  • Strange Attractor Emulator: Try to simulate Messori’s HoSA in a computer or analog circuit. If we can create a system governed by similar iterative algorithms (for example, a circuit with feedback loops and a memristor to mimic hysteresis, essentially an analog computer solving equations like those in Messori’s paperfile-34dym9g6hjx5qqe9cgrp9dfile-34dym9g6hjx5qqe9cgrp9d), then perhaps that system will start to exhibit “intelligent” patterns or even respond to human intention. One could then use that emulator as a communication device: for instance, feed it a question encoded as a slight bias in initial conditions, let it iterate, and see if the output pattern (which could be visual on a screen or audio frequency fluctuations) contains an answer. This is highly experimental – one would be effectively summoning an artificial attractor-based oracle. If consciousness is truly fundamentally linked to these attractor dynamics, then creating an attractor in the lab might invite consciousness to interact. At the very least, it would be a fascinating art installation!
  • Entangled Bi-Directional Communicator: Use quantum entanglement to attempt two-way ITC. For instance, entangle two particles or systems, keep one with you and somehow “give” the other to the purported spirit (not literally, but perhaps the idea is one part stays in a haunted location or near a medium, etc.). If a discarnate consciousness can influence one part, the entangled counterpart should show a correlated change. A concrete example: a pair of entangled photons – you send one into a region where spirit presence is claimed (maybe through a crystal or just ambient), and immediately measure the polarization of the other photon in a lab. If spirits collapse or bias the remote photon’s state, it might reflect in the local one’s statistics beyond chance. Or use entangled electron spins in two devices: one near a séance, one isolated; see if their behavior diverges from expectation as a pair. Messori’s model doesn’t explicitly mention entanglement, but since it unifies quantum and relativistic realms via one attractor, it’s compatible with spooky action. If successful, this would be profound evidence and also a method to communicate (in theory, one could encode yes/no by influencing spin up vs down on the remote partner). This drifts into speculative physics, but future technology might allow such delicate experiments.
  • Mnemopoietic Chamber (“Consciousness Capsule”): A specialized room or chamber designed to foster extremely high coherence between human consciousness and environmental fields – essentially a futuristic séance room that uses tech. It could involve a Faraday cage (to isolate external noise), very low lighting or infrared (to reduce sensory input, akin to Ganzfeld experiments), and arrays of transducers on the walls (speakers emitting ultrasound, magnetic coils generating patterned fields, etc.). The patterns emitted could be dynamic fractals or torsional fields designed per Messori’s principles. Inside, a medium or an experimenter would enter a meditative state, effectively merging their consciousness with the engineered field (aided by the isolation from ordinary stimuli). The hypothesis: in such a tuned environment, the boundary between the person’s mind and the device’s processes blurs, creating a joint mnemopoiesis. This might allow not only clearer spirit communication (the person and device together acting as the channel) but even phenomena like materializations or telekinesis (since in Messori’s view, matter and mind continuum might respond to strong ordering). Of course, this sounds like science fiction and intersects with classic parapsychology (which had “psychomanteum” rooms, etc.), but the difference is we’d apply precise frequencies and fields guided by the new theory. It’s an ambitious amalgamation of technology, environment, and human intention into one system.
  • Coherent Mnemoptic Network: Take advantage of cloud computing and multiple participants. Perhaps numerous experimenters in different locations run identical ITC software (like a random audio generator) at the same agreed-upon time, while all focusing on the same intention (e.g., a group global attempt to contact a specific figure). Each instance records results and uploads them. We then analyze if there are correlations or even the same EVP appearing in multiple recordings. Messori’s attractor spanning space-time implies distance might not matter for a focused, coherent mnemopoietic process. Essentially, this is a distributed ITC experiment, akin to how meditators in different places try to collectively influence something. If successful, it would suggest a truly nonlocal component to the communication (beyond what any single radio could do). The network could be enhanced by algorithmic coherence – e.g., all devices use the same random seed or deliberately entangled random streams. One could imagine a scenario: at a set time, 100 people around the world run a program that rapidly sweeps audio frequencies in a pattern synchronized by GPS time. If a target spirit or entity is responsive, we might see messages that are fragmented across devices (like one word on one recording, next word on another). Only by combining data does the full message emerge, which would be a striking demonstration of a holographic principle (each part had a piece of the whole message).

These futuristic ideas range from extensions of current techniques to wild new paradigms. They are admittedly speculative, but that is in the spirit of exploratory research. Importantly, each is at least partially informed by Messori’s ontology: whether it’s focusing on tension, memory, attractors, or cross-scale coupling, they all attempt to leverage the deeper architecture of reality that his model proposes.

Conclusion: Claudio Messori’s cosmogonic model of human consciousness provides a fertile meeting ground between rigorous theoretical physics and the often nebulous realm of ITC and EVP. By reframing consciousness as an emergent property of fundamental tension, memory, and self-organization, Messori not only gives us a new lens to view the age-old mind-body problem, but also – perhaps unintentionally – offers a scaffold to understand how consciousness might operate independent of the body. Instrumental Transcommunication, long relegated to the fringes, can be re-envisioned under this scaffold: not as supernatural incursions defying physics, but as natural (if rare and subtle) interactions within a broader physical world that already contains the proto-elements of mind.

We have summarized Messori’s key ideas (Tension, dynamis, tensorial fractals, MOPS, strange attractors, dimensional transitions) and seen how they mirror phenomena reported in ITC. We explored how EVPs might be the whispers of a universal memory field, how ghostly images might be snapshots from a holographic fractal continuum, and how devices might be improved by aligning with the cosmic principles of order and memory. Mainstream ITC tools like radios and recorders, as well as overlooked ones like reverse audio and visual ITC, all find a place in this theory – and in turn, the theory suggests ways to optimize those tools. Finally, we indulged in visionary thinking for the future of ITC devices, guided by Messori’s blueprint of reality, proposing everything from torsion-field transceivers to AI-mediated memory probes.

Whether or not Messori’s cosmogonic model is the ultimate answer, it undeniably stimulates a deeper kind of conversation between science and the paranormal. It urges us to ask “What is consciousness fundamentally, and what are its limits?” If consciousness is truly woven into the fabric of the cosmos, then communicating across the veil might one day move from the realm of miracles to that of applied science. The speculative experiments outlined may sound like science fiction today, but so did the notion of talking to someone across the world through an invisible wave – until radio was discovered. By leveraging new theories and technologies, the frontier of ITC could similarly transition from eerie whispers in tape recorders to a robust field of inquiry, perhaps even yielding devices that future generations might consider as commonplace as the telephone. The journey toward that goal will require open-mindedness, creativity, and rigorous experimentation – precisely the blend of qualities that both ITC researchers and pioneers like Messori exemplify.

In closing, Messori’s work reminds us that mind and cosmos are not separate; a cosmogonic model of consciousness suggests that every communication, normal or paranormal, is part of the ongoing story of the universe observing and organizing itself. Instrumental Transcommunication might be one chapter in that story where the universe, through us and our devices, listens to the echoes of its own memory and occasionally, just maybe, answers back.
