090422 Something’s on your back

Sunday Sept 4th Loma Mar Redwoods

Kate: Dave asked me to put on the headphones. I’ll say what I hear.

Dave: anyone around who would like to communicate through this box–

I want

Does that mean you do want to communicate

Hey. That was so…your money. Men.

Dave: Kate’s hearing a little more than I did. Motorcycles are going by. So hey. Do you have a name I can call you? Or anything you want to pass on to us

You put this whole .. (hole?) … whoa

There’s a lot of traffic around. We did set this up so we could talk to you. Is that what you mean by “you put this whole”

I will … beginning louder

Does that mean that you’re going to start now

Memories?

Are you sharing memories with us?

Scared of me?

We’re not scared of you at the moment. Oddly I do hear a noise off in the woods

Something’s on your back

I don’t see anything–

one year olds, crazy unleaded

idk what crazy unleaded means but “one year old” does that mean we’re talking to a very young person?

Alice music (we determined later that a local radio station is “Alice Music”). You can get that.

What?

Cuz you know, it’s something o’Clock.

Kate: that’s all I’m gonna do.

Dave: I heard something moving around straight behind us, not on the path

Kate: an animal?

Dave: probably, it was taking very slow steps

(Dave puts on headphones)

Kate: Hello! We’ve heard some noises and I got a strong image of a man in a blue coat coming towards us. So, who is here that wants to speak with us

All or nothing

That’s pretty extreme. There are nuances in life. Is there something you think is extreme in life?

You want beer or napkins?

Haha! You know, I would love  an adult beverage. Unfortunately, we don’t have one here. It does sound nice, doesn’t it. I did give one of the trees some water. Hope that helps. We’re curious who lives here in this forest? There seems to be an intelligence here beyond animals. Not that animals can’t be intelligent but it seems closer to human intelligence or beyond so we wonder who is here. Will you tell us? You can try talking into the device that Dave is holding, or sometimes thinking really hard can work too.

Taking advantage of

What are you taking advantage of?

Time off

That sound goods

Formosa? (Taiwan used to be called Formosa, which means “Beautiful Island”)

IDK what that means. it might be an Italian word but I don’t speak Italian. What are you doing with your time off? Something enjoyable? Traveling?

Not perfect.

No, few things in life are perfect. But that’s ok. You can do your best to communicate through the box. Is there something you want to talk about or something you want us to know? Is there anything we can do to make it easier to communicate with you? Why is it typically so quiet in this forest

I’m down for this episode

I’m curious why this forest is so much more quiet than any other forest I’ve been to. Aside of the traffic noise. We are right by the road.

Save

What do you want to save?

Limited time

Sounds like you might be concerned that time is running out to do something important to you. What is the thing you want to do?

And the problems are happy right now

Happy, or having? Can you try explaining that again?

Dave: I’m just not getting anything.
