EXPANDABLES
null : characteristic observed

INSTRUCTIONS |
surface |
surface
level topology
irregular topology |
This is any base
surface, regardless of whether it is land, water, or other. Two
clicks are normal here, "surface" plus one topology. |
land |
land
manmade
natural
level topology
irregular topology
steep peak(s) |
If there is
a land surface, click "land" and then any of the other
elements that match your data. |
water |
LIQUID
water
INTERFACE
land/water interface
SOLID
ice or snow
|
Click any
that apply. A land/water interface is where land and water meet. |
atmospherics |
natural smells
manmade smells
smoke or burning (natural
or manmade)
cloud dynamics |
Click any
that apply. |
structure(s) |
SURFACE STRUCTURE(S)
surface structure(s)
one
multiple
city
subjects inside
subjects on base surface outside
MATERIALS
natural materials
manmade materials
GENERAL LOCATION
on
land
on/in water
on a flat surface
not located on a surface
NONSURFACE STRUCTURE(S)
nonsurface structure(s)
one
multiple
subjects inside
subjects nearby outside
noticeable relative movement
stationary
silent movement
emitting energetics
|
Click any that apply.
Be "lower inclusive." For example, if you perceive
a city, you would click "surface structures," "one,"
"multiple," and "city," since all of the
lower descriptors apply as well. "Nonsurface structures"
are flying structures. Be lower inclusive here as well. If there
are multiple, also click "one." |
natural object(s) |
natural
object(s)
on a surface
not on a surface |
Click any that
apply. A "natural object" is any natural formation
or thing, including a mountain, cliff, meteor, etc. You do not
need to know anything other than that it is natural and whether
or not it is on a surface or not on a surface. Two clicks are
normal here, "natural object(s)" and the location. |
subject(s) |
subject(s)
male
female
one/few
many/crowd
focused gathering |
Click any that apply.
Be "lower inclusive." For example, if you perceive
a mixed-gender crowd, you would click "subjects," "male,"
"female," "one/few," and "many/crowd,"
since all of the lower descriptors apply as well. A "focused
gathering" is a crowd that assembles for a single purpose. |
mountain |
mountain(s)
one
multiple |
Click all that
apply. Be "lower inclusive." For example, if you perceive
many mountains, you would click "mountains," "one,"
and "multiple," since all of the lower descriptors
apply as well. |
environment |
urban
natural
harsh natural
harsh manmade
extensive folliage
distant or no base surface |
Click all
that apply. |
energetics |
explosive, swirling,
or multi-directional movement
kinetic (fast or slow, one direction)
fire or heat |
Click any
that apply. |
activity |
activity or
movement by subject(s)
activity or movement by object(s) |
Click any that
apply. Significant activity only. |
light |
bright
dim/dark
glow |
Click any that
apply. Normal daylight is "bright." "Glow"
is something that is giving off its own light. |
sounds |
talking, shouting,
voices
booming or roaring
wind-type sounds
loud
noticeably quiet
music, rhythm, or pulsing |
Click any
that apply. |
temperatures |
hot
moderate
cold |
Click the one
that is most appropriate. |
DOMINANT SESSION
ELEMENTS |
structure(s)
on a surface
structure(s) not on a surface
lots
of subjects
movement/activity/energetics
natural
environment
natural
object not on a surface |
Click one
or two (at most). This summarizes the overall idea of the session's
data. |
SKETCHES |
structure(s)
structure(s) on a surface
structure(s) not on a surface
natural object on a surface
natural object not on a surface
subjects(s)
subject(s) in a structure
subject(s) on an outside base surface
horizontal base surface
sloping or peaking base surface(s)
object totally below a surface
significant motion of primary object(s)
radiating or explosive energetics
extensive foliage
extensive water |
Click all
that apply. Be "lower inclusive." For example, if you
perceive and sketch structures, then you would click "structure(s)"
as well as their location. The same is true for subjects. Describe
only the DOMINANT sketch elements. All sketches apply. |
