IGSS word (acronym) of the day: ITC

ITC stands for "Instrumental Transdimensional Communication". It comes down to using various audio and video technologies to elicit and record responses (communication) from another dimension in real-time. ITC differs from EVP as EVPs occur as a recording on a media-either tape or digital audio data- and exist on a purely audio level which tend to only be observed after the event. EVP recordings limit a researcher by having to ask a question then review the data he or she has collected for a possible answer after the fact. ITC's are typically real time sessions in which a audio or video device is used to provide real-time two way communication. There are many experimental ITC devices available for paranormal research such as the Ovilus or the "paranormal puck", "franks box" or the "ghost box".

IGSS Word of the Day

Cold Spot-A small, defined area of intense cold that can't be readily explained by other natural or mechanical causes.

We've got some exciting new equipment on its way to us in the next few days! Without going into too much detail, one has to do with a new way to capture and analyze EVPs using high end audio equipment and the other is an ITC (Instrumental Transdimensional Communication) device that looks for patterns in the surrounding environment and converts them into visual form. We will post pics and more details on them in the very near future so stay tuned!
