"Onan-o-Graph" Self-Evaluation System (Custom Design - Simmuated Operation)

Circa Late 1990's

A custom movie prop manufactured by PROPOLOGY.ca featuring simulated functionality. Designed to portray a closed-loop conditioning tool designed to monitor and modify a subject's mental state via physiological feedback.

Core Components & Logic:

• The Hub: A microprocessor-controlled console that plays audio cassettes. It dynamically adjusts the order and repetition of questions based on real-time data.

• The Sensor: A headset that provides audio playback and tracks physiological responses (GSR/pulse), transmitting this data back to the console.

• The Visualization: An LED graph categorizes thoughts into three ranges:

• Green (1-4): "Light Thoughts" (Calm/Compliant).

• Yellow (5-8): "Careful" (Stress/Caution).

• Red (9-11): "Dark Thoughts" (Negative/Non-compliant).

Behavioral Conditioning:

The system employs Aversive Conditioning to enforce mental discipline:

• Correction: Entry into the "Red" range triggers an electrical shock through the headset.

• Escalation: Persistent "Dark Thoughts" result in increased frequency and severity of shocks.

• Scientific Parallel: It functions like an automated, punitive E-Meter, moving beyond simple measurement to active physical enforcement of a desired psychological state.

History:

This unit was custom-built for the television series Millennium and appeared in the Season 2 episode 'Jose Chung's Doomsday Defense' (1997)."
