So I guess it was easier to publish in the nineteen-thirties.Other Legendary US Clubs Rhine relied on testing whether a subject could influence the outcome of tossed dice – initially with hand-thrown dice, later with dice thrown from a cup, and finally with machine-thrown dice. In the later 1930s, Rhine investigated “ psychokinesis” – again reducing the subject to simple terms so that it could be tested, with controls, in a laboratory setting. So I was a bit surprised by the existence of such a study from Duke University, and it turns out to be true: the apparently famous Joseph Banks Rhine indeed studied psychokinesis with an experiment similar to what is described in Berendt’s novel. When I needed a five and rolled a two, he proclaimed, “Aha! You know what’s on the other side of a two, don’t you? Five!” When he finally rolled the dice with his bare hand, he did best of all.”įrom the few rounds we played, I could not say whether Psycho Dice really worked. When the man rolled the dice himself, using a cup, he did better still. Then they put him in the same room, still concentrating, and the machine beat the odds again, by an even wider margin. Then they put a man in the next room and had him concentrate on various numbers to see if that would beat the odds. First they had it throw dice when nobody was in the building, and the numbers came up strictly according to the law of averages. Back in the nineteen-thirties, Duke University did a study with a machine that could throw dice. If you do any better than that, you beat the law of averages. “Dice have six sides,” he said, “so you have a one-in-six chance of getting your number when you throw them. Williams was sure he could improve the odds by sheer concentration. The object is to get all four numbers in the fewest rolls.” You’re eliminated if you roll three times in succession without getting any of the numbers you need. You continue to roll the remaining dice until all the dice are sitting on the board, showing your set of numbers. Then you throw the dice, and if any of your numbers come up, you leave those dice stand-ing on the board. You take four dice and call out four numbers between one and six–for example, a four, a three, and two sixes.
“I think you can influence events by mental concentration. One of the main character, Jim Williams, explains it as follows. In a failed attempt to escape from statistics by reading a novel ( Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil, by John Berendt), I discovered a game called psycho dice.
