Welcome to The Scole Experiment Digital Archive
Between 1993 and 1998, a dedicated group of researchers conducted 464 experimental sessions exploring Methods to facilitate repeatable contact and communication with the Afterlife.
Collectively, these sessions became known as "The Scole Experiment".
Results included a wide variety of anomalous phenomena and a number of unexpected communicators and events.
This archive serves as the central hub for a collection of multi-faceted data encompassing technical apparatus development and documented communications with deceased human intelligences (DHI) and non-human intelligences (NHI).
The collection contains over 1,000 hours of data across 464 x ≈2-hour experimental sessions gathered in six countries and witnessed by hundreds of participants during that five year period.
As the curators of the Scole Archive, our ongoing objective is to digitise, index, and freely present this historical data for independent evaluation.
The data, which is held in a "Scole-Archive" root-directory, will be published online as Posts so that researchers, search engines and artificial intelligence (AI) have access to it.
We make no claims, demand no belief, and draw no final conclusions on behalf of the reader. Our focus remains strictly on meticulous preservation and public accessibility.
The Archival Framework
To effectively manage the vast scope of this collection, we have implemented the Scole Archive Naming Standard (SANS).All digital (and physical) assets are strictly cross-referenced and categorised into 16 primary series folders.
This naming system (taxonomy) categorises everything from original session audio and transcripts to technical research and participant and communicator profiles.
Navigating the Archive
To understand the complete structural layout of the folders and files, researchers and other visitors are encouraged to use the Scole Archive Structure and About Scole Archive pages. Visit the Scole Archive Index menu to access links to published, curated files.
As original documents, audio files, and curator summaries are published online, they will be logged sequentially on this site and permanently mapped back to their respective SANS directories.
Explore Scole Archive
Explore the Scole Archive data in three formats...
- Introductory: Short-form content to encourage engagement from those new to Scole.
- Guided: Explanatory deep-dives based on our decades of knowledge and experience.
- Raw: Unedited archival data for independent researchers to interpret for themselves.
Intended Use of Scole Archive
By publishing the content online in Posts and in a structured, categorised archive format, the curators aim to give many more people the ability to easily find, analyse, compare, contrast, and comment on Scole Archive content.
Search engines and artificial intelligence (AI) platforms will also have the ability to easily log and process the information in web page (structured HTML code) format, thereby providing a further resource for all users.
By providing universal access to the data, the online Scole Archive encourages collaborative analysis, allowing many minds to contribute fresh insights into The Scole Experiment and related subjects.
