TRANSCRIPT (DECEMBER 16 2023 10:09 AM.)*
MON: (Plus 6 minutes, ready to start.)* Okay, good, we are back to baseline here. All right now, using the information in the envelope I’ve provided, exclusively focusing your attention now, focus on 40.74149674201997, -74.00595284598666.
SUB: I want to say...it’s like...there’s an opening...a gateway, yeah. I kind of got an oblique view. Ah...it’s like an arch...covered in moss. Yes...I’ve seen this gateway before...definitely.
MON: Where have you seen it?Â
SUB: By the pylons...yeah, the powerlines behind the reservoir. Maybe not this one...but something like it. By the coastline, too...the tall grass...
MON: Can you go through this gateway?
SUB: I can...but I’m not sure.Â
MON: Focus on the gateway.Â
SUB: The moss...it’s all cabled...vines like big braids of optic fiber...I’m not sure if it’s natural or not..the gateway...it feels like a machine, an entity, even...like the difference between holding sand and holding glass.Â
MON: Can you look through the gate? You don’t have to go through it, just look. Focus on the other side.Â
SUB: Um...it’s like...ah...it won’t let me...ah... maneuver to look through it exactly...the portal...it’s...warping. It’s like it’s jamming me, like it wants me to enter and not just look.Â
MON: Just report the raw data, don’t try to put things together, just report the raw data.
SUB: Okay, I’m trying not to see, but to feel...ah...remotely. I’m moving through it...I think...Â
MON: Great, that’s great. Just focus.
SUB: It’s like a tapestry rushing over me. I’m being woven into something...ah...reassembled...or defragmented? I can see...I see reconciliation...I see the warm potential of porcelain...I see circuits, locusts, copper...I see infrastructure crafted from the bones of deities...There’s a great bloom of machinery and moss...meshing together..now only a flower...it’s humming. I’m not sure if I’m on the other side or not...
MON: All right, that’s fine. Good. You can come back now, come back to the sound of my voice into the present. Move now back to the room, closer and closer, back to the sound of my voice, back further now to the sound of my voice on the 16th of December 2023.
