“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(Jane of course had never seen this object, or any others like it, because I have never made them before. I made two of them on May 10,1966; I dated one of them and used the other in the envelope. The pigment color is quite dark, but not black. The stonelike or rough surface and the dark color enter into the experimental results.

A film connection, black and white. A decoration, or something memorized, as four score and seven years ago… That is, a phrase known to many, and rather cliché.

Connection with an image of Ruburt. Black and white again rather than color. A connection with the early 1960s.

No more than I have said. If the object is not a photograph, it is closely connected. I have the impression of a black and white photograph.

(“Dark printed matter.” As stated, the pigment used on the object is quite dark, a burnt gray brown, but it is not black. Jane’s impression of it, I noted, was that it was darker to her than to me. I don’t know whether Seth uses printed here to mean an ink applied to paper or newsprint, or just some other substance applied to a surface as in the case of the object.

(“A film connection, black and white.” As stated Jane at once thought of a man when she saw the object, and this she thinks led to the film connection. It comes up again, as does the black and white data. To Jane the color of the pigment on the object is quite dark.

(“Connection with an image of Ruburt. Black and white again rather than color. A connection with the early 1960s.” Again, Jane thinks the dark pigment on the object gave rise to this data, with the date perhaps referring to the year a picture of herself was taken.

(“No more than I have said. If the object is not a photograph, it is closely connected. I have the impression of a black and white photograph.” Presumably because of the reasons cited above. My second question asked for elaboration on the decoration data, and resulted in some more information.
