Hi Linda,
A few of you have enlightened me on what I do myself regularly. Now I have a
nice term for it.
thanks
Liz

Hi Liz,
Doorknobbing is looking at one tiny section of a
target, like the doorknob instead of the entire
building and describing it for an entire session. One
way to ensure you are not doing this is to simply move
yourself around the target. I once did a technology
transfer target and described this really neat
metallic energy flow and texture only to find out that
the target was an elevator and I was stuck with my
nose to the wall of it rather than seeing the entire
thing!
Hope this helps! Dee

Hi Liz,
It's when you totally miss the whole point of the picture, and zero in
on something inconsequential. For instance, lets say your target is the
Lincoln Memorial, and someone placed a bottle of water at the base of it, and
all that you viewed was the bottle of water.
Take care,
Linda

yeah . . . .
I'm famous for doorknobbing, drives me nuts.
It's a terrible problem.
It takes a monitors dogged persistence to move me or a total re-task.
(pre-viewing the target helps this A LOT(understatement? ), and I always
pre-view? )
It's a bugger when your plagued by it.
sticky bits- stuck like glue . . . push thru the aperture.
all the best Terri~~*

Now that we know what doorknobbing is, does anyone
know the etymology of the word?

Moderator's note: Yes. It's one of many terms in RV that Swann had one word for
and Buchanan chose to use another word for. He chose doorknobbing -- he says --
from a target he once did where, instead of describing the house, he described
in extensive detail the crystal doorknob on the front door. -- PJ

ROFL Now that sounds familiar. I do the same thing all the time.
Thanks for the info.

thanks for the info Deb. You just described what I tend to do on a regular
basis. If there are meadows with flowers behind the target I'm a goner.
Cheers Liz

Liz,
(List members please feel free to add to or clarify anything I offer here? )
Doorknobbing is the term used to designate a phenomenon that often happens
during practice sessions with beginners (and sometimes more experienced
viewers? ) where the viewer is drawn to the "shiny doorknob" present in a
target rather than getting the essence, or gestalt, of the target. If part
of a target is found to be interesting to the subconscious mind of the
viewer, the viewer's subconscious may focus on that part exclusively and
ignore or miss the major aspects of the remainder of the target site. One
possible example of this would be a structure target near an amusement park.
The viewers will tend to gravitate to the noise and excitement of the
amusement park rather than focus on the nearby structure, which is the
actual target. Feel free to PEM me if you have any additional questions,
Kind regards,
Deb
