The mechanism of precognitive dreams involves the transmission of electromagnetic patterns, and emotional attraction is a necessary condition for initial transmission and transformation.

This program treats the Seth Material as a source of hypotheses, not as doctrine to be validated. Lead dossiers are AI-compiled from the corpus with a book-and-session citation after every statement; literature reviews are AI web-search summaries whose references were all DOI-verified against Crossref; the agenda draft is an AI synthesis. None of it is Seth's original text, and none of it represents scientific consensus. English fields are machine-translated; the Chinese text is authoritative.

Adjudicating experiment
This corresponds to Supplementary Questions 1 and 3, and is divided into two phases. Phase 1: Approximately 600 participants each record 30 nights; before sleep, they are randomly assigned different target categories with low, medium, or high personal relevance, but specific targets are not presented; dream reports and emotion ratings are sealed before specific targets are randomly drawn within each category. Emotion is measured via dream-adapted self-report, SAM valence/arousal, and independent closeness-motivation ratings; dose-response trends and match rates are pre-registered. Blinded raters and on-site experimenters are unaware of target identity; participants cannot be fully blinded to their own felt emotions. Prospective memory is controlled using the Virtual Week. Duration: 12 months. Only after the effect is replicated, approximately 100 participants undergo 6 nights each of DC-coupled EEG and near-scalp OPM-MEG, exploring 0.01–0.5 Hz slow potentials and conventional bands, with pre-registered cross-validated decoding of occipito-temporal source activity and external random targets. Additional magnetically shielded, sham-shielded, and environmental reference sensors calibrated with measured attenuation are included. Duration: 18–24 months.

What it would overturn
If electromagnetic signals carrying information about subsequently random targets are detected, this would revise the hypothesis that "measurable neuroelectromagnetic activity does not contain independent external information that has not yet been generated."

Specificity of Seth's formulation
Electromagnetic transmission and emotional necessity add testable constraints, but no frequency band, amplitude, propagation direction, source location, or distance attenuation is specified; the cited bands are experimental candidates, not Seth predictions.
Note
Ordinary neural activity inherently has electromagnetic features; finding brain-magnetic differences is insufficient to demonstrate information transmission. Measured correlation with emotional intensity does not equal a randomized dose causal effect; a Faraday cage is not equivalent to low-frequency magnetic shielding; necessity tests must pre-register equivalence bounds for low-emotion conditions.
