(I just did a small session, S1-2, oldschool CRV-style)
Aaaarggh!
Does every target in my little beginner's target pool, composed of images taken
from www.confluence.org, need to include a small, white fencepost?!
Note that I'm blind to the images themselves before feedback, I managed to do it
this way thanks to the confluence maps. I was wondering whether these were not
too good targets for me, though - they're rather boring, I had to take several
turns persuading myself to do this small session after almost 3 weeks of...
well, lots of experimenting with psi, but never a single RV session. Ouch!
But now I have a faint idea as to how a small white fencepost
like this: http://www.confluence.org/photo.php?visitid=4297&pic=1
and this: http://www.confluence.org/photo.php?visitid=4229&pic=1
looks like in session. But, the second time I was sure it couldn't be anything
like this - I thought, well, a bridge. Why not? Then I thought of what PJ said
(even wrote that down, in-session) about her RV perception, shown through the
example of bridges. Well, now I feel that way about small, white whatevers
sticking up from a boring landscape (I even felt that way in-session, but I
refused to say it was the same thing. That would've been too easy! LOL) But this
is what I learn from. Oh, well...
But I do need a more interesting target pool, these images look more alike than
I would ever have thought. Images that get me going. Images that are
distinguishable from each other, heck! I chose these by map coords, and I made
sure to include all varieties. But then, why do they all look alike? My luck, I
guess.
I wonder, how do trainers do S1 these days? The old CRV manual wasn't of much
help to me, I tried using these homogenous landscapes, but they can't keep me
from feeling bored (that's the smaller problem) plus they're so similar... Maybe
if I had a tasker, but I don't as of today, and I really don't want to see my
target pool before session feedback, that'd give me a heck of an AOL (and I'm
too lazy to do a large pool).
I'll go and see Pru's Aurora Bomb site, do the lessons, I guess that'll be more
beneficial than just going out by myself and reinventing the wheel. But first of
all, I'll *sleep* since I can barely keep my eyes open Nighty night to
y'all,
Rachel

Hello Rachel,
LOL! Yes I absolutely agree, I seem to do much better if on feedback I find
that I am interested in a target, and that it is
'memorable' or becomes that in some way.
Even if really good Viewers may be able to fully describe those two targets
in awe inspiring detail, and I think the 'holy-grail' of RV would be to be
able to identify anything....even strings of garlic ;-), if lack of interest
is a barrier
to good viewing somehow then those two targets could stand out as a couple
of prime examples :-))
Yes, sounds as if you need a better target pool Rachel. Mind you I can't
really talk I haven't got one at all, and as you
said, one of the advantages of viewing repetitive targets is that you may
start to recognise how your sub interprets things; so we still can learn
from the experience.
Kind regards,
Glyn
