PROTOCOL
This Joint Communications (JC) series will be series of four
(targets) with feedback provided after all four projects are
completed.
The targets will be selected by "CW". At 1000 hours each
day "CW10 will focus on one target element as well as any key
dynamic/feeling/sensation/sound/color associated with or implied
by the target content. This "sender" information will be
recorded as part of the target material.
The sender will hold target focus for at least 30-45 minutes
initially at a specific time during the day.
Viewers will initiate their response at 1000 hours, or at
any other time throughout the day. At least two sessions are
desired per target (the latter session for refinement and for
developing target spatial relationship or dynamic/feeling aspects
in more detail). Viewers also have the option of working on the
target during the evening.
All. sessions will be summarized as soon as completed. In
the case of evening work, this material will be documented by
0900 hours the following day.
Evaluation of this series will be accomplished on a case-by-
case basis based on a 0-5 scale comparison, and on a blind
ranking procedure. The four targets will be arranged in random
order and forwarded to us after all session data is completed for
the last target. This will facilitate the blind ranking
procedure. Ground truth will be obtained only after the judging
is completed.
Remember, our basic interest in this communication series is
to refine data useful for narrowing down lost persons or hostage
location tasks. In essence, "CW" will serve as a simulated
hostage who is being moved around. This t e of tar et is of key
interest to a potential tasking agency SG1H
