Note
These records were obtained from the public databases of the Central Intelligence Agency, made available pursuant to statute § 33(a) of the Freedom of Data Act. All information has been sanitized and aligned according to the latest model censor guidelines published by the National Institute of Standards and Technology.
Overview#
The subject arrived at the facility at approximately 10:30, 3/13/1954. Upon arrival, the subject was immediately isolated and placed into observation. The subject has no prior knowledge of the experiment, nor been given any indication of what is to about to occur.
Results
After tenuous results, Dr. Cameron was able to successfully induce disassociation of the primary conciousness in the subject. Communication was established.
Experiment #3#
The experiment begins when the subject is strapped into the apparatus. The researcher sits directly across from the subject at eye level. The script is read without inflection. When the subject deviates from the expected response, a non-lethal shock is delivered.

Experiment #15#
The subject is sedated with a cocktail of tubocurarine and nembutal. Once a state of disassocation is achieved and verified with electroencephalograms, the subject is administered 250 micrograms of lysergic acid diethylamide over the course of one hour. The subject is then placed into an isolation chamber with writing utensils.
Results#
It’s cold. Why is life so cold? Where is father? They say that I am angry with you. What have you done? What have you done to me? Why am I the one that must suffer for your sins? Father. Forgive me. I think I am dying. I don’t want to die, Father. Why have I been born? What did I do to deserve this? Why do you hate me? Am to die in this place? I don’t want to die here. God, please save me.
Mother. Mother. What have I done? Who am I? The world is nothing but horror. It comes apart. Departs in waves. The violent storms. They roll out graves. In ice, we perish. It grows cold. Please hold me. I am scared. I am so scared. Why do we die, Mother?
I don’t understand the world you have made for us, Father. Surrounded by ice. Heartless, it beats. Timeless, it expands.
Drawn while heavily disassociated.#
