<p align="LEFT">Mike Sears<strong> </strong>will introduce everyone to how spirit communication is utilized in paranormal research, the equipment used, and share some of the communications that Volunteer State Paranormal Research has encountered during their many investigations in the Middle Tennessee Area.</p>
<p align="LEFT">The class will include an open ITC session (Instrumental Trans-communication) using the Ovilus and Spirit Box to make a connection. We will attempt to connect with loved ones or whomever the audience requests. (We cannot make any guarantees, but have been able to make connections during past events.)</p>

<p>The above clip is from a session held by <a title="VSPR" href="http://www.vsparanormal.com/" target="_blank">Volunteer State Paranormal Research</a> in the cellar of Rippavilla Plantation, located in Spring Hill, Tennessee. A great deal of paranormal activity had previously been experienced in the cellar. Our team used the PX Oviluss with great results. This is just a short clip of the hour we investigated in the cellar.</p>
<p>“ITC” stands for Instrumental Trans-Communication. ITC is communication between the living and spirits or other entities utilizing any type of electronic device. Some examples of common household devices that have been used int he past are tape recorders, fax machines, TV sets, and computers. ITC can include visual effects in addition to audio anomalies. The term “Instrumental Trans-Communication” found its origins through Professor Ernst Senkowski who was a physicist at Faculty of Engineering in University of Mainz, Germany. Unfortunately, the scientific community per-say   has not yet accepted the validity of ITC.</p>
<p>The electronic device we used for our ITC experiments in this video is a PX Box. The PX was invented by Bill Chappell. It is an electronic device that reads changes in the EMF (Electromagnetic Field) and converts those readings into words. The theory behind this piece of equipment is that spirits seeking to communicate learn how interact with the device by changing the EMF causing the PX Box to announce the words they wish to communicate to the audience.</p>
<p>EVP stands for Electronic Voice Phenomena. EVP’s are intelligible speech generated on electric devices, but are not the result of intentional voice recordings by the person using the recorder. Elecgtronic Voice Phenomena is created with static, radio, or background noise, etc. The theory behind EVP is that the spirit can create a shift in frequency outside of the normal human voice range that shows up on audio recorders. The length of EVP can range from a single word or an entire sentence. The recorder  used in this investigation was an <a title="Amazon WS-100 olympus" href="http://www.amazon.com/dp/B0009N9PJA/ref=as_li_qf_sp_asin_til?tag=lumineacom-20&amp;camp=0&amp;creative=0&amp;linkCode=as1&amp;creativeASIN=B0009N9PJA&amp;adid=0887M2T74TJB2E9BMYWQ" target="_blank">Olympus Digital Recorder WS-100</a>.</p>

<p>First you will hear Mike Sears, founder of Volunteer State Paranormal Research, ask “Can you tell us your name?” Then you’ll hear “My Name is Sunshine”. We think this might be the child that has been seen in Mike’s house. The child is of a little boy around the age of 8-10 with blondish sandy hair and  seen smiling before he vanishes.</p>
<p>From the response, it  shows that it is an “Intelligent” response.  The child voice  is using part of the question to respond to the question. “My Name is Sunshine ”</p>
<p>Non of us during the session heard this reply from the child. This is why its very important to record  your ITC session. You will be able to go back later and listen for replies you might have missed.</p>
<div>
<p>This capture is from a private investigation at the Director of VSPR home. We were using Mike Sears’s Frank’s Box Hack and my <a title="ws-100" href="/http://www.amazon.com/Olympus-WS-100-Digital-Recorder-Interface/dp/B0009N9PJA" target="_blank">Olympus Digital Voice Recorder WS-100</a>. A Frank’s Box Hack is a Radio Shack Radio altered so that it continuously scans through the channels without stopping. The theory as to how this works is that it supposedly allows spirits to communicate with us by manipulating the voltage or electromagnetic frequency in a randomly or continuously scanning AM/FM radio. According to the theory, Spirits can learn to stop the random or sweeping scans of the radio on particular words or phrases being broadcast to convey a message to the living. Also the theory is the spirit is able to speak thru the static white noise. There has been times VSPR has used the box in areas that can not receive a radio station and just receives white static noise. During those times we have got replies to our questions. This form of investigating is called ITC (Instrumental Transcomunication)communication through any sort of electronic device such as radios, tape recorders, fax machines, television sets or computers between spirits or other discarnate entities and the living. Most common item used for ITC is the am/fm radio.</p>
<p>VSPR uses several types of am/fm radio Spirit boxes and the PX/Ovilus for its ITC research. We will be posting more of our ITC  finds in the near future.</p>

<p>Mike has had experiences of the paranormal most of his life;starting at a very young age of 5 when he saw his first spirit/ghost of a little girl appearing in his bedroom when he lived in Upstate New York. Mike had other occurrences through his life that happened but nothing like the one he had in <a href="http://web.archive.org/web/20131211020417/http://vsparanormal.com/?p=699" target="_blank">1994 in Melbourne, Florida.</a> This event became a life changing experience for Mike and put him in the direction to seek out answers about the Afterlife. From those experiences they fueled his passion to learn more about the paranormal field.<a title="Volunteer State Paranormal Research" href="http://web.archive.org/web/20131211020417/www:vsparanormal.com" target="_blank">www:vsparanormal.com</a></p>
