Ok folks, this is going to be an absolutely winged weirdly so if you think that I've completely fallen off my domly trolley I won't blame you one little bit. It may be that research done in the 1970s and 80s may prove that it is impossible for people to give their consent to being influenced by scene activity, even when they are nowhere near where play is taking place.
Now I'll give you a few seconds to recover your composure and stop hyperventilating.
It works like this. In the 1970s, while trying to create super-psychics, the Russians discovered something really interesting, namely that painful stimulus had the effect of causing the human electro-magnetic field to spike, to expand away from the body and that this effect could be detected by placing a sensitive voltmeter about three feet away from the subject, apply the stimulus and watch the needle jump. Now, if we assume that this field is a carrier of information, that would mean that it would wash over the dom in a scene and in some way explain what we domly folk get out of this stuff.
Alright, pretty conventional stuff so far and easily proven. In fact I've done demos with the voltmeter thing. It's an interesting little oddity and it has all kinds of possibilities for adaption in play, using light for example, or a gadget called a Hand Resonator, things that work on the human energy field to the great mystification of the on-lookers.
But there is more!
In the 1980s, Dr. Charles Tart, famous researcher in the field of alternate states of consciousness and serious parapsychology (you know, the boring kind with all the statistics that no one can figure out) type person, decided to play with the Russian data and thus he set up an experimental series of his own. He put a test subject in a polygraph in one room and then, in an another room, gave himself electric shocks (it seems there was a masochist shortage at the University of California Davis). The results of his experiment were this. While the test subject had no conscious knowledge of what was happening (no psychic impression of electric shocks) the polygraph registered each time Dr. Tart zapped himself, which meant that at some level the information was getting to the subject and the subjects body was reacting to it even though the subject was unaware of what was going on. Now what makes this interesting is that the subject was probably out of range of the electrical spike. That only goes a few feet. What the subject was picking up was some sort of X field and we have no real idea of what range that has, or if it has any range limitations at all!
Ok, what is the implication for us?
Consider this. You have play going on all over the place, but let us confine our consideration to the local dungeon. As people are being flogged, not only are their electrical fields expanding, but also the X field is broadcasting merrily away, creating, in effect, a broadcast station that is sending the information of that field all over the place, much like a radio station. Not only is this covering everyone in the facility, but it is going out through the walls, across the street, into the neighboring buildings, possibly even covering everything for miles and miles. We don't know what the range of this is.
What is happening is that within the working range, everyone who is susceptible is receiving this information and, at the subconscious level, reacting to it whether they want to or not! They have not given their consent and their consent is absolutely irrelevant. No one is going to stop playing because of this and, in a very real way, we are playing not only with our partners but everyone else who is in the area of the field and that area can be very big indeed.
In a very real sense, we are domming the world, whether the world wants it or not.
