As an aficionado of internal voices I would love to hear more on this subject. Especially the exact method by which the internal voices might be generated or influenced. Do you have something I could read?


Our minds may be entangled as our consciousness is a quantum phenomenon (I know, I know, something else you may refuse until “science” explains it to you.)

History does have fascinating accounts, though spread out and easily dismissed as occult nonsense.

Heck, just google the snail telegraph and consider humans through decades of specialized training can fully navigate entangled networks of our minds.

This is not “telemetry”, it is entanglement which persists at a distance and may be navigated.


Consider those people who hang out in sensory deprivation chambers. What do you think they’re up to exactly?

Does nobody remember what Richard Feynman mentioned in “surely you must be joking…”?

Small clue, though there are many such “small clues.”


That's an interesting idea. That we could access the space where these voices roam. (Via sensory deprivation or whatever)

It's funny, thought (this mass of internal voices) is popularly considered to be the firm logical bedrock of reality. Realer than sights and sounds even.

But what if it's something more physical and arbitrary? Blobs of oil drifting in a puddle. Brownian motion.

Please expand?


Reread “surely you must be joking Mr Feynman”, considering the American thought control program was well underway, and messing with people’s minds, particularly prominent peoples.

- discussion of his adventures in the sensory deprivation tank, where he “crashed into” someone else’s experiences

- when going to sleep one night, a mob of others in his head were interacting with him. They offered to let him experience fully aware sleep, which he “tried” then refused as it didn’t seem natural to him (waking dreams is a skill the mind may master).

- talking to a recruiter, it is subtle, yet the recruiter asks the question about voices not because it means your crazy, rather the voices make people paranoid and unstable, and only a crazy fool would reveal this. Feynman mentions hypnagogia. The government did now want the great scientific mind of Feynman enlisting, no matter how enthusiasm for the noble intention.


Mr Feynman was obviously crazy. All of his opinions should be disregarded as nonsense.

But wait, he's a famous smart guy. so we have to take him seriously.

Oh it's tearing my science-loving brain right in half I tell you.
