Holographic ITC by Tom Butler
Abstract A hypothesis is proposed for why multiple face-like features are often found in individual frames of recorded video-loop noise.
Introduction In the video-loop
technique for visual ITC, a video camera is pointed toward a video
monitor and the output of the camera is connected to the input of the
monitor so that the camera "sees" what it has just recorded. A person
might expect the resulting optical noise to look like the "snow" seen on
an unassigned TV channel; however, in at least some configurations of
equipment, the resulting noise has the appearance of patches of light of
different brightness rushing toward the viewer from the center of the
Our working hypothesis is that the patches of brightness in the loop video are areas of relative order that naturally form in chaotic noise because of a process known as stochastic resonance. In that process, a small irregularity in the uniformity of "baseline" energy can be amplified, and in video-loop ITC, those emergent splotches are often shaped like people.
[Update: We have been working with the concept of intended order. This concept may be applicable to such phenomena as both audible and visible ITC, energy healing, meditation and morphogenetic fields. The standard model we are using is that trans-etheric influences are the expression of a personality's intention. Physical people are personalities that exist in the etheric, but are able to inhabit the physical aspect of reality because of the physical body. In effect, people are all the same, but some may not have a physical body. In that way, we all influence our environment via intention. We bring intended order to chaotic environments.]
Examination of individual frames sometimes shows an astounding number of face-like shapes and some of them are sufficiently detailed to be arguably be real faces. The example here will be in the theory section of the website, and we would be happy to email it to you for closer examination. There are also examples of this in the Butler Galleries of the website.
Recording ITC: The
Techniques section
has an article explaining how to record for these phenomena. Some
The key to recording video ITC is in establishing a display with a good balance of bright and dark areas. The loop tends to be a cycle from all black, through medium bright patches of color, to an all white and back again. The video is at about thirty frames a second, and a cycle from dark back to dark takes several seconds. We record for ten to fifteen seconds and may find thirty to fifty frames from that recording that need examining.
Who is in the video: You can see that there is no physical input to the system other than electricity and ambient light. It can be argued that there is no physical reason for faces to be in the noise, other than the occasional fortuitous formation that might resemble a face. Certainly, there should not be faces with clearly identifiable red lips and eyes with pupils. Phenomenal faces are found in many different techniques, but all seem to depend on the transformation of visual energy. Moving water, light reflected from crystals, even audio spectrograms have produced features. Most visual ITC features are of strangers, but there are a few that have been recognized. For instance, a moving water feature taken by Margaret Downey has been favorably compared to a photograph of her long-transitioned great, great grandfather using forensic software. That was reported in the Spring 2007 NewsJournal. There are differences in clarity and detail amongst the different forms of visual ITC, but the common factor appears to be broad-spectrum optical noise and an active analog process such as an amplification circuit. This is the common factor for audio ITC as well.
Based on the ATransC Survival Hypothesis, we speculate that the features are formed by the amplification of a weak psi signal from the practitioner, or an interested observer, by the action of stochastic resonance on the optical-frequency noise. We speculate this is a mind-to-mind exchange of information between the etheric personality of the practitioner and the communicating etheric entity. This occurs in the etheric as a nonphysical process.
The observed effect of one or two well-formed faces in visual ITC is due to the practitioner’s attention on a specific etheric entity. However, there are apparently many other entities present which the practitioner is only partially aware of. These background personalities are therefore only poorly formed in the resulting ITC.
The group picture above is an attempt to show how we might be aware of everyone in the group, but our attention is momentarily on one person at a time. In this case, Sarah Estep is clearly imaged, and the other people are only vaguely noticed.
Of course, all of this is hypothetical, but so many poorly formed faces present in virtually every suitable region of optical noise, along with a few well-formed faces, argues that we are the channel for the information and where our attention is determines what is communicated. This may hint at a way to improve ITC techniques.

Some of these will have color if a color camera and TV are used. See the
examples 
people have
had success with digital equipment, but we have not seen the detail
exhibited by examples collected using analog equipment. For this reason,
we recommend that anyone wishing to replicate this work should use at
least an analog camera, and preferably an analog monitor. We use a Canon
8mm ES2000 analog camcorder with a Sony KV20TS32, 20 inch Trinitron
color TV. We like using color because the resulting features often seem
to have true color such as with skin tones. See the website for
technical notes.
The information is then transformed into
the physical aspect of reality by way of the person’s etheric
personality-to-physical body entanglement, and expressed into the
physical as a psi signal that represents the person’s impression of what
was experienced in the etheric.
