General Comments, Opinions & Questions.:: EVP Clip......What is being said?
Quote:

Are you saying that if what is being said cannot be agreed upon the recording is virtually unviable?

My point is, once your mind 'decides' on an interpretation, it tends to stick with it, no matter how many times you listen. For instance, spookyshoe is clear that it is 'I'm' followed by something ending in '...ing'.

If you try to forget these interpretations, which isn't easy but it can be done, and listen again, you will often hear others. They many sound similar but have different meanings.

Let's face it, if the recording wasn't ambiguous, I think we'd all agree pretty quickly. Once there is ambiguity, however, people can have different interpretations, often affected by expectation. Those people who claim to receive answers to EVP questions are clearly expecting certain possible 'replies', limiting their likely interpretions.

It's all fascinating stuff!

Perhaps your listening to the wrong EVP's

There is a lot of rubbish out there and finding a cracking evp on the net is quite difficult

I would be happy to email some of our EVP's for you to listen to....you could transcribe them and compare to our notes for an objective view point

If your interested just PM me your email and I will send them over

But then again perhaps the afterlife is bound by rules just as we are here on earth

Perhaps, only a suggestion, spirits are forbidden to show themselves to fulfill claims of an afterlife

After all....its been debated for thousands of years and is a very indistinct area....you wouldn't be able to keep something quiet if everyone made the same promise as proof would be ten a penny

Defo not local kids...its in the middle of no where but we have tracked down the houses owners and even though derelict they have informed us it is private property and considering the dangers involved with derelict sites they would prefer us not to enter because of the possible risk

Ghosts - Other:: Remember! Remember!
UPDATE:

Thur 2nd-Sat 4th: Lewes Operatics - Remember! Remember!

A big deal this: for the first time in their hundred-plus-year history, the Lewes Operatic Society are performing the world premiere of a newly-written musical. Remember! Remember!, in the style of Martin Guerre and Les Miserables, apparently, is a project, years in the making , by a trio of writers hoping to get the piece staged at the West End. Lewes, of course, is an apt place to stage the new show, though it tells the story from the point of view of the plotters, particularly Fawkes, Catesby, Tresham and Winter. Many cast members have been growing pointy beards especially for the run of performances; others chickened out and will be wearing false ones. Adrian Samuel plays the part of Guy Fawkes. What shall we do with him? Photograph by Keith Hunt

Lewes Town Hall, 7.30pm (plus Sat matinee at 2.30pm). Tickets, at �8 or �10, have completely sold out: the only way of getting in now is if you're lucky enough to obtain a return, by turning up on the door, which opens at 6.45pm

Also...a review from the Sussex Express:

Published Date: 03 October 2008

This week an historic event happened in Lewes and I was very privileged to witness it.
Lewes Operatic Society staged the World Stage Premiere of a brand new musical, Remember Remember. It is very fitting Lewes, with its great Bonfire tradition, should have been granted this right. The show tells the story of the infamous Gunpowder Plot on 5th November 1605 and the events leading up to it.

It was a tangled web of intrigue and the strong prejudice against Catholics that led to this Plot which, had it succeeded, would have changed the whole of English history.

The Sussex writing team comprising Jasper Kent, Robert Piatt and Robert Starr have been working on this show for four years and the night I went they were there in the audience to see all their hard work come to fruition.

From the moment you walked into Lewes Town Hall there was a buzz of excitement and as soon as the show started you were riveted.

It was very cleverly staged, starting with a back projection of present day fireworks before the Ensemble paid tribute to Bonfire Night in Modern Day Lewes with the opening song Remember Remember.

Then it went back in time to the period between 1603 and 1606. Colin Reynolds lighting and back projections were crucial to the show and transported you to the various scenes starting with the Coronation of James I in Westminster Abbey and ending with the hanging of the conspirators in The Old Palace Yard, Westminster.

I can't single out any one person because everyone from the leading actors to the chorus were superb. This was no amateur production � it was one hundred per cent professional from the direction, choreography, costumes, acting and singing.

It reminded me of Les Miserables and I think if these talented writers can find a professional outlet for their show it will take the West End by storm. The tourists will love it because it is a real piece of English history.

The torture of Guy Fawkes was terrifying. This is not a feel-good musical. Like Les Miserables it is dark and very moving.

It was sold out for the entire run and it is a shame it cannot be seen by a wider audience with the same cast, director and backstage boys and girls.

Ohhhhhhh yesssssss!!!
