Related Notes The Camera Obscura, The "Spirit World"

As previously mentioned, "Occultist" Kunihiko Asou has actively appropriated Western craft with the goal of explicating ancient Japanese belief in and legends of the "Other World."

It is said he finally was able to establish communication with the Other World.

The first example of this is the "Other World Crystal Radio Signal Receiver," otherwise known as the "Spirit Stone Radio".

The Spirit Stone Radio's "Spirit Stone" was a name his colleagues used later -- in Dr. Asou's research materials it is usually simply referred to as the "Crystal."

The principle of the crystal radio is that it utilizes the special wave detection property of crystal to pick up the appropriate band of wavelength. Asou focused on that fact that "stones" have been known from ancient times to carry occult properties.

If he could find a special "Crystal" he thought perhaps he would capture signals from the Other World.

It is said his experiment was a success and the records note that he was able to capture sound at a range outside that of normal broadcasting.

The documentation of the sounds have been lost, but Asou's associates left behind several testimonials saying they heard "words of the past" and "words of ghosts".

前出の通り、「神秘科学者」麻生邦彦氏は
西欧の技術を積極的に流用することにより、
日本に古くから伝わる「異界」信仰や伝承
を解明しようとしていた。

そして、ついには「異界」との交信を実現
するに至ったと言われている。


その最初の事例が、この「鉱石式異界電波
受信機」通称「霊石ラジオ」である。

霊石ラジオの「霊石」とは後に麻生の朋友
達が言うようになった言葉で、当時の麻生
博士の研究書物には単に「鉱石」と記され
ていることが多い。


鉱石ラジオの原理とは、鉱石の検波特性を
利用して波長の合う帯域の電波を拾うこと
であるが、麻生は、古来より日本のみなら
ず世界的にも「石」が神秘性を持つもので
あるということに着目し、特殊な「鉱石」
であれば、異界の電波を捉えることができ
るのではないかと考えた。


実験は成功したと言われ、通常の放送は流
れていない帯域で音を捕らえることができ
たと記録されている。

音の内容を書き残した記録は既に失われて
いるが、「過去の言葉である」「霊魂の言
葉である」など、幾つかの証言が、麻生の
朋友により残されている。
