Spiritualism
Konstantin Raudive
English How To Make the Spirit-Being Stand on the Ground focuses on the electronic voice phenomenon (EVP) experiments conducted by Latvian parapsychologist Konstantin Raudive, who was active in the latter half of the 20th century. This thesis aims to explore the relationship between the mediums necessary for communicating with spirits and the immaterial entities themselves. EVP follows the historical trajectory of spiritualism, which began with the human mediumship of the Fox sisters in 18th century America and later evolved into a part of mainstream culture through technological advancements like Morse code. Raudive's EVP experiments capture the voices of immaterial entities using material devices such as tape recorder, involving various processes of recording and replaying these voices and conversations. Technology enables the recording and repetitive playback of spirit voices, allowing humans to experience them without relying solely on physical senses or memory. Through this case study, I aim to explore the illusion evoked by the tape recorder in Raudive’s experiments—namely, the illusion of disembodied spirits that seem alive by being externally stored and reproduced. I investigate the role of the tape recorder in Raudive's supernatural experiments, particularly how it invokes the "liveness" of beings that no longer physically exist.
