DAMMA / HUMAN INSTRUMENT 002

SIGNAL / NOISE

Before you believe it, separate what arrived from what you added.

Information rarely reaches us untouched.

It passes through sources, memory, fear, repetition, expectation and interpretation.

This instrument does not determine what is true.
It helps you see what you can actually support.

ENTRY / CONTEXT

What are you trying to understand?

First identify the kind of signal you are dealing with.

Name the thing you want to examine. A claim, memory, suspicion, story, impression or unresolved question.

START WITH THE QUESTION 0 / 4000

01 / SIGNAL

What actually reached you?

Before explaining it, preserve the original signal.

What exactly did you see, hear or read? Use the closest version you can to what actually arrived.

SIGNAL / BEFORE MEANING 0 / 4000

Preserve the signal before explaining it.

02 / SOURCE

Where did it come from?

A statement and its source are not the same thing.

What do you know about the origin of this information? Firsthand observation, named source, another person, a feed, a memory, a screenshot, an unknown origin.

ORIGIN / PROVENANCE 0 / 4000

Repetition is not provenance.

03 / EVIDENCE

What can you actually support?

Separate what is available from what merely feels convincing.

What facts, observations or evidence do you actually have?

EVIDENCE / OBSERVATION 0 / 4000

Confidence is not evidence.

04 / NOISE

What did you add?

Meaning often arrives a fraction of a second after information.

What interpretation, motive, prediction or conclusion did your mind add? This does not mean your interpretation is wrong. Only that it is an interpretation.

INTERPRETATION / ASSUMPTION 0 / 4000

Interpretation is not observation.

05 / PRESSURE

What is pulling you?

We do not receive information as neutral machines.

Why might you want this to be true or false? Fear. Hope. Loyalty. Anger. Identity. Pride. Belonging. Previous experience.

EMOTION / IDENTITY / EXPECTATION 0 / 4000

Bias is easier to see in others.

06 / ABSENCE

What is missing?

The absence of information is also information.

What would you need to know before becoming more certain?

UNKNOWN / UNVERIFIED 0 / 4000

I don't know is valid information.

07 / REVERSAL

What could change your mind?

A belief that cannot change under any possible evidence is no longer only a conclusion.

What evidence or information would make you reconsider your current view?

REVISION / OPENNESS 0 / 4000

Certainty should remain revisable.

08 / SEPARATION

Remove what you cannot support.

Keep the evidence.
Keep the uncertainty.

Let the rest remain possible without pretending it is known.

09 / POSITION

What can you honestly say now?

Choose the sentence that best describes your current position.

What can you responsibly say?

CURRENT POSITION 0 / 4000

What remains uncertain?

UNCERTAINTY REMAINS 0 / 4000

Precision is more honest than certainty.

DAMMA / PERSONAL SIGNAL RECORD
