Project MKOFTEN was an attempt by the CIA to "explore the world of black magic" and "harness the forces of darkness and challenge the concept that the inner reaches of the mind are beyond reach". That's it I'm done--can't deal with this @#$@# anymore, CIA's evil. I'm over it.

At roughly around min 22 in the "Monarch: The New Phoenix Program" on Vimeo, they mention Project MKOFTEN, which sounded kind of loose-headed so I decided to fact-check with wikipedia's source. Not found? What's wayback have to say? Oh: This.

Excerpt from Monarch: The New Phoenix Program:

In a 1977 Senate hearings former CIA Director admiral Stansfield Turner stated that the program took place at 80 institutions, including 44 universities, 15 private companies, 12 hospitals, and 3 prisons. MKULTRA's subproject 119 was the foundation of all non-lethal weapons programs currently active and included a summary of five areas. One of which is entitled, "Techniques of activation of the human organism by remote electronic means" This memo was dated August 17th, 1960. And when viewed with other evidence that was not destroyed, shows significant interest in radio frequency weapons and direct control of human behavior at a distance.

By 1960 the CIA dropped emphasis on the use of LSD in favor of electronic influence. This aspect of the research is where the greatest modern emphasis has been rather than chemical or biological agents, both of which violate existing treaties and leave physical traces.

Dr. Stephen Aldritch took control of the office of research and development in 1962 from from Dr. Sidney Gottleib. Aldritch started Operation OFTEN, an investigation into the occult with the help from Houston sorceress Sibyl Leak. CIA behaviorist carefully studied every aspect of the occult underground. The Scientific Engineering Institute SEI was a CIA cutout that had been setup in 1956 to study radar. In 1962 SEI set up a lab to study the effects of electrodes deep in the brain. In 1972, SEI also sponsored a course at The University of South Carolina in rituals in Demonology and Voodoo. Dr. Aldritch was an MKULTRA programmer who focused on remote brain manipulation and the occult: the twin threads that run through the SEI corporation.

In 1962, a CIA manual focused on Radio Hypnotic Inter Cerebral Control--RHIC--which was developed by the pentagon. Quote, "when a part of your brain receives a tiny electrical impulse from outside sources such as vision, hearing, et cetera, an emotion is produced: anger at the sight of a gang of boys beating an old woman for example. The same emotions of anger can be created by artificial radio signals sent to your brain by a controller. You can instantly feel the same white-hot anger without any apparent reason." Endquote.

Another term, Electronic Dissolution of Memory EDOM, refers to the the ability to erase memory at a distance.

This is just. I can't. Ugh.
