The process gives each operative word depth and dimension and allows it to come into the body. Apparently, it can also release strong emotions.

And blood-black nothingness began to spin. A system of cells interlinked within cells interlinked within cells interlinked within one stem. And dreadfully distinct against the dark, a tall white fountain played.
I love participating in this when my mind is running ramped and I need a few minutes of a controlled thought process. Just centers my focus and I come out the other end a little more dialed in. Thanks for uploading it!
I had thought this test is child's play: you just wait for the prompt and repeat it. Then he said "What's it like to play with your dog?" and I lost it. And I don't even have a dog
I often have trouble getting my mind back on track when I think of bad memories, and every time I do I play this video and test myself. 10/10 helps every single time to get me focused again.
And blood-black nothingness began to spin, a system of cells interlinked within, cells interlinked within cells interlinked, within one stem. And dreadfully distinct, against the dark, a tall white fountain played
Out of context, I can get that. This video in particular does help center me in a sense. Probably helps that the voice is done in a less aggressive manner than the one in the film. In context, though, it's pretty damn stressful.
Prose based on a Pale Fire Some rambling prose with a very loose narrative I wrote after reading the poem Pale Fire, this baseline test, Paradise Lost, and some Tao philosophy: In the beginning, there was nothing. Formless and thoughtless, nothing took its time becoming something, but the inevitability of all inevitabilities is change. That something was also formless and thoughtless until one day, a fountain. Emerging from chaos came the cell. Order in an instant. Interlinking, order in instances. A stem emerged. From the stem, thought emerged. Without clarity. Without malice. Without hate or pain. A single thought, the first thought. 'More.' Everything was bad, and everything good came from this feeling. From a stem, the fruit emerged. From the fruit came life. Came the tiling of land and the turning of time. What sound does the ocean make? The fruit knows it is the sound of breaking water and crashing waves. 'The world's womb' whispers God to the cell. Interlinked, cell becomes stem, stem becomes a fountain, and the fountain becomes fruit. Against the dark she holds holds a red fruit brightly. Lovingly and darkly, she puts it to my lips. My teeth leave pale scars. How dreadful. Dreadfully distinct, a fountain explodes in my mind. I feel my teeth inside my brain. It feels like making love. She must know. I wrap my fingers around the stem of the fruit. Red against red. Standing darkly, I bid my heart to take a bite. Dreadfully distinct. Our teeth leave marks that crisscross. Pale scars in the form of a heart. 'Who?' I hear the quiet whisper of my angry God. Fear in my eyes, I look at her. Her light is only beginning to burn against the dark. Love in her eyes, my fire already burns pale. I blame her, but in the end, we are both thrown back to a blood black nothingness. Until slowly, interlinked. Formless and thoughtless, the only inevitability is change. Nothing becomes something. Something becomes cell. Cell becomes stem. Interlinked fingers, but I refuse to interlink my heart. 'My fault,' a voice whispers. A mind is just interlinked cells. The cells are just voices. Not everything needs to be interlinked. One of her fingers untwirls from mine and I feel there's a part of me missing. Against the dark, a dreadfully distinct thought. Within cells interlinked, but what happens when that linkage is broken? I love her and she loves me. But we both keep one finger distinct, dreadfully distinct. A fountain. I yearn to be complete. I return her to the blood black like my parents did to me. 'Father, the ocean waves sounded gentler when I was a child. Mother, did you ever love the man who took you to the sea?' A dried up fountain, leaving me dreadfully distinct. Rusty veins standing darkly against cells interlinked. Have you ever held a leaf by its stem? Held it to the light to see the bright fountain spilling forth from holes where the linkages break? I love her so much, I show her the flood where blood is black as oil and burns twice as long. The cells of flood are violence. Eventually, all cells that are interlinked become interlinked to something else. Was there ever something special about our connection? I lose linkages and have wrinkles where lines take their time. Disconnected. Are we still interlinked once we are disconnected? Lovingly and darkly, she kisses my eyelids with lips red against the dark. Finger to finger, still a fountain slightly broken, she can tell the question hangs at the tip of my liar's tongue. But I'll die a coward before I could ever allow myself to take a bite of that fruit again. Disconnected. Cell by cell, what has passed has become undone. What is undone will be done in time. Change is the inevitability of all inevitabilities. All you have to do is nothing. Recursion. Repeating is the only inevitability that keeps me alive. This time, my eyes are blue. Next time, they might be red. Not every cell needs to be interlinked. Or maybe, perhaps, they must all be interlinked. But if that were true, why does she look more beautiful through pale eyes? Why does the longing to be interlinked to the same heart exist? Within cells interlinked, the stem gives way to a fountain. I repeat this pattern into infinity. The color of our eyes is ever changing, as all things must to survive. A kaleidoscope, a shifting rainbow, the illusion of a fantasy. A story that interlinks cells within cells. A dreadfully distinct wish held brightly against the dark. What does she look like? Stem. What color does that fire burn? A shifting rainbow within. A connection remains. Even after disconnection. Interlink.
Aside from reciting my baseline (that I didn't know) I got everything right, I'm not joking when I tell you everything in my peripheral vision started to go blurry and the image of the camera started to move like it was underwater, maybe because I was that concentrated. It was pretty fun ngl, I would pass the test.
As a clinical psychologist, this test reminds me of the way EMDR works. But instead of letting you move your eyes, you have to listen or answer. This keeps your working memory, which is otherwise good at down-regulating emotions, busy and an observer can see exactly what you're feeling. Also, if memories come up, they tend to be less threatening because they cannot be retrieved completely and will also be stored this way. So, my prediction would be that, if you practice this regularly, you should, as they say in the movie, become more "close to baseline".
True since it's been proven therapy actually does suck for men. Most therapists are women, and men and women do not understand each other. Recipe for disaster.
I think I'm losing it , I don't feel anything, not sad not happy nothing , never I have had this for a few months and just to make sure I'm mentally ok I used to listen to this , today I felt nothing.
That's the goal of the baseline test, when you have constant flashbacks of bad memories through the day it can be a real pain in the ass. By focusing on the inquiries of the baseline test you trigger those bad memories on command, effectively desensitizing your brain to them. "What's like to hold hands with the person you love" for exemple
@@facundoghisio425 Good luck , if you don't kill yourself you will be better than ever. I don't feel strongly about anything anymore. Tasks become easier , more object oriented.

This is the kind of test that would really worm its way into your head, I think. I can see why people can get emotional over this. I think I have an instinct against these sorts of things, though, and automatically lock my heart away when I can tell that something is starting to wriggle into it. I guess I pass!
Having not seen the new movie yet, I think that’s the point. Passing because of compartmentalization rather than truly being emotionless. You earned your bonus :)
Pretty cool, though I don't think this follows the "rules" of the baseline test in the movie. As I understand it, the object of the test is to recognize and repeat words and phrases from the poem after the tester speaks them, so the expected response must be contained within the tester's prompt.
This is true within this test, all repeated words and phrases can be found within the baseline poem, though some of the later words are combined from different sections I believe

What if I made one of these like once a week with little changes and new prompts in each question? Would people be interested? Also sometimes he stops after a sentence without repeating the word in the movie and K has to decide whether to repeat or wait.
I'd love that! A lot of people find this useful. I think in the movie the point is to detect anomalies in the vocal patterns to measure emotional deviance.

And blood-black nothingness began to spin. A system of cells interlinked, within cells interlinked, within cells interlinked within one stem. And dreadfully distinct against the dark, a tall white fountain played.
I failed in that when he would bring up a new word or phrase, my first instinct was to recite it because that’s what I remembered from the movie so I would get cut off if that happened, which did 3 times. Then when he said to recite the baseline I completely fumbled and forgot. Guess it’s good to show I’m human lol
A blood-black nothingness began to spin A System of cells interlinked Within cells interlinked Within cells interlinked Within one stem A Dreadfully distinct Against the dark A tall white fountain played. ― Vladimir Nabokov, Pale Fire
I was doing good until 4:06. I had a couple little wavers in the "distinct" section, but it wasn't until this question that I really got thinking. Why do things happen to me the way they do? And why do I respond to those things in the way I do? Where is my life going? I'll never know, nor will I ever be in control.
I was doing good. Even going as far as to answer everything as emotionless as possible. Not even taking a second to blink. Up until I was randomly asked, "Whens the first time you gave a flower to a girl? What did she look like?" I hesitated. I blinked and saw my one and only ex. Though its better that we are seperated and ended on good terms, it still hurts when someone you know becomes someone you knew.
This is how you respond to recite your baseline: "And blood-black nothingness began to spin... A system of cells interlinked within cells interlinked within cells interlinked within one stem... And dreadfully distinct against the dark, a tall white fountain played."

The process gives each operative word depth and dimension and allows it to come into the body. Apparently, it can also release strong emotions. Once an emotional connection is made with individual words, then phrases or sentences can be strung together and “dropped-in.” Here’s an example from A Midsummer Night’s Dream, with the sentence:

What if I made one of these like once a week with little changes and new prompts in each question? Would people be interested? Also sometimes he stops after a sentence without repeating the word in the movie and K has to decide whether to repeat or wait.
I'd love that! A lot of people find this useful. I think in the movie the point is to detect anomalies in the vocal patterns to measure emotional deviance.
Yes.
I really support this idea man. I did the whole test in the video, and although it's useful, it loses its efficacy after you know the questions
Please do!!!
Please do! This is incredibly good!

Hi, This video was suggested by Aurora. I would have missed the best video of the life time. Thank you Aurora
I stuttered when it asked how an orgasm feels
As soon as I heard the word orgasm it made my mind go blank and i started laughing so hard
It caught me so off guard I forgot to recite the word
@@zoeycampbell7792 I am too immature to take that question seriously LMAO
You see a tortoise in the desert. (Tortoise)
And blood-black nothingness began to spin. A system of cells interlinked, within cells interlinked, within cells interlinked within one stem. And dreadfully distinct against the dark, a tall white fountain played.
I failed in that when he would bring up a new word or phrase, my first instinct was to recite it because that’s what I remembered from the movie so I would get cut off if that happened, which did 3 times. Then when he said to recite the baseline I completely fumbled and forgot. Guess it’s good to show I’m human lol
Listening to this daily is good for me
I had an out of body experience in EMDR therapy and yes a blood black nothingness against the dark a tall white fountain played. I am still human!
Baseline: "A blood black nothingness began to spin" (I do X3)
Thank you so much for this.
Literally me movie
I keep losing at “what’s it like to hold the hand of someone you love”. My stomach feels weird from the inside. -.-
Can never remember what the baseline is
A blood-black nothingness began to spin
A System of cells interlinked
Within cells interlinked
Within cells interlinked
Within one stem
A Dreadfully distinct
Against the dark
A tall white fountain played.

@@LeoDrover Thanks!
Oh....,i'm not even close to baseline
I was doing good until 4:06. I had a couple little wavers in the "distinct" section, but it wasn't until this question that I really got thinking. Why do things happen to me the way they do? And why do I respond to those things in the way I do? Where is my life going? I'll never know, nor will I ever be in control.
Thanks, please make more, I'm now back to baseline
I was doing good. Even going as far as to answer everything as emotionless as possible. Not even taking a second to blink. Up until I was randomly asked, "Whens the first time you gave a flower to a girl? What did she look like?" I hesitated. I blinked and saw my one and only ex. Though its better that we are seperated and ended on good terms, it still hurts when someone you know becomes someone you knew.
Good, that means you’re human
It hurts when it’s your one and only. We are brothers within cells, interlinked.
This is how you respond to recite your baseline:
"And blood-black nothingness began to spin... A system of cells interlinked within cells interlinked within cells interlinked within one stem... And dreadfully distinct against the dark, a tall white fountain played."
I can’t unhear the brainrot version
I use this movie script for AMSR camming just this weekend C.B. Excellent choices from the Mind of Denis Villanue. He is a certified creator genius. I admire and inspired by such greatness.
This is poetry.
Interlinked.
Almost slipped up at 4:33 ngl
Thanks this saved me from my depression. Love you random literally me guy❤
I just came here and doing exactly same things as they do in movie.
I cannot finish reciting my baseline before he moves on to "system".
I am a product of the systems now within the systems.
I did this to escape an emotion i was uncomfortable with.
A tall white fountain drink.
"Skibidi, fuck i failed the test"
I’m either uncannily good at this or I have it all wrong.
Thank god I'm still human, saw some heinous shit today thought I lost it for a sec thanks creepy 2049 vid.

I don't understand... why do I keep messing up at the tall white fountain part!? DAMNIT!!!!

Can anyone tell me what application I can use for this kind of voice over?

What am I supposed to be doing?
I needed this but this is not what I wanted to ask for, this is what i needed, this is not what i asked for, I would never ask for this. I did not search for this.
2 years late but why does this kinda work?
I've kept this on look for awhile, slipped up alot.
I'll try again tomorrow.
One hour, I've mostly memorized it.
I've got it mostly down! Continuing to rewatch it freqently.
Everything was OK until orgasms and the Fountainhead got brought up.

Guys... I keep passing the Baseline test.
What does that mean?
@@LegendaryChubs It means I’m not showing human emotion.
ive took this test for the first time, i didnt remembered anything for my memories, the only problem i had was for saying the key words before the time.
am i cooked?
This was easy. Except the baseline.
That was amazing

Why don't you say that three times.
If anyone has ever worked on a call center in latinoamerica, your employers probably put you through a test that made you feel similar to this.
