[Opinion] Electronic vs. Real Remote Viewing targets

[Durward]

I have watched and experimented with RV for some time.

In my humble opinion, there is a HUGE difference between actual physical targets, real coordinates, aka Real Life, and anything electronic hiding behind some random link on a screen in front of me. To me, there is no connection to a button or link on the screen, and any object ever.
Perhaps if they would show a picture of something, or some place, and ask me to tell them about that location or that object, the electronic picture would be fine to use. But I just can't see some electronic thing being connected at all to my mind's eye.
The random link has an alternate possibility, which would be precognition.
The actual physical location has changes happening that can be reported accurately in real time, like weather at that location.
Perhaps this is because I didn't grow up with a TV, or a radio, and was not immersed in the world of electronics?
Wouldn't it be strange to find out that we have a couple of generations of people that are now mentally stuck in the computer world or Matrix?
The rest of us are still free of that...

The difference is all in the tasking. A good tasker ensures that the link isn't the target - the target is the target, and it's just "as pictured" in the link to anchor to a point in time where you can be assured of good feedback.

The same goes for a photo in an envelope. Are you viewing the photograph? Or are you viewing what the photo is of? Let's say the photo is of the Eiffel Tower at night during last Summer's Olympics opening ceremony. If I tell you "view the photo in the envelope" then you're missing context and have nothing more than "tower at night." If I tell you view the Eiffel Tower as pictured in the picture in the envelope, then you are there with the person taking the picture, at that time. It would give you a starting point roughly equivilent to the image I use for reference - describe the whole tower, not the cell phone tower stuff on top, or the elevator, or the cafe in the middle.

Why do it like this? Weather, for one thing. If I ask 20 people to remote view the Eiffel Tower and each does it at a different time of day, each days apart, some will get daylight, some will get night, some will say it's cold or hot or wet or bright. They would all be right because I didn't say WHEN to view the tower.

Good tasking goes like this:

TargetID: The viewer will describe the Eiffel Tower on July 26, 2024 during the Olympics Opening Ceremony, as pictured in the link [link]. The viewer will describe the tower and related lights or other events nearby, and keep centered on the tower. ONLY.

As opposed to bad tasking:

TargetID: The Eiffel Tower. [link to random image]

This doesn't even ensure that the viewer really stay on target and describe the tower at all, just that you start off there. A large event, like an Olympic opening ceremony, will have more entropy and likely distract the viewer and take up a lot of their session. Or you might end up viewing it during WWII, or when being built, because no date is included.

Hope that helps!
