The TTG circuit can be used for testing PSI; precognition, telepathy and psychokinesis (PK). In a pinch, it can even be used as home radioactive bomb/fallout detector. And when not used in any of the above applications it's a truly random mood light with a very high coolness factor.
History of the TTG
When I designed this circuit I had thought it original to me. My company has turned this circuit into a small commercial product. A series of events cause me to look to see if a RNG had ever been connect to four different color lights to test for PSI and PK. Searching through the Internet I found that connecting a "Geiger counter" RNG, to a modulo four selector to four different color lights for the expressed purpose of testing PSI and PK had been done in the 1960's by Helmut Schmidt.

Not only had my circuit been created before, but in almost the exact same manner.
Helmut Schmidt had made many RNG devices, this was only one of them.
Telephone To God Disclaimer:
When used as a fortune telling device, ie, "Telephone to God", (TTG) I make the following disclaimer. The Telephone To God, is based upon the randomness of radioactivity, the user's interpretation of these random events is their own responsibility. The Telephone To God is offered as an entertainment device ONLY! I do not accept any responsible for any results consequential or inconsequential from the use or misuse of this device.
A Telephone To God, on the surface, it sounds too unbelievable to be true, well maybe not. Read on and make your own decision. Einstein is quoted as saying God does not play dice with the universe. To which Neils Bohr replied, Einstein, stop telling God what to do with his dice."
Our Telephone To God relies on the randomness of radioactivity. The built in minature Geiger counter detects background radiation. Background radiation consists of three sources: cosmic, terrestrial, and internal. Cosmic radiation comes from the sun and stars. Terrestrial radiation comes from low levels of uranium, thorium, and their decay products in the soil, air and water. Internal radiation comes from radioactive potassium-40, carbon-14, lead-210, and other isotopes found inside our bodies.
Connected to the built in Geiger counter is a PIC microcontroller that uses the random time interval between the detection of radioactive particles to trigger the selection of a random number between 1 and 4. Random numbers generated by a computer are pseudo-random numbers. They are random in an exact and repeatable pattern. So, they are NOT random and are thusly referred to as pseudo-random numbers. The random numbers generated by our TTG circuit are truly random. The Random Number Generator (RNG) will produce approximately one to two random numbers every minute.
As stated, the Telephone To God generates a random number one through four. Each number is assigned to a color LED that is displayed in our lamp unit attached to the phone. Number one is assigned the color (1 =) Red, two is assigned the color (2= ) Green, three is assigned the color (3 =) Blue and four is assigned the color (4 =) Yellow. Feel free to mix up and/or change the LED colors, as you desire.
Telephone To God - To use this device as a fortune telling device, aka, Telephone To God, assign answer values to the LED colors; for instance red = No, green = Yes, Blue = maybe, and Yellow ask again later. Something like a color light magic 8 ball. Ask God a question and wait for the color light reply. Is this any better than a magic eight ball? That's for you to decide? Let me leave you with this quote from - Matthew 10:29. Not even a sparrow falls to earth without God knowing it . Therefore God would know of this telephone and could communicate through it
When not talking to God, our Telephone To God has a ton of other fun and useful applications:
PSI Testing
The TTG circuit can be used in the same manner as Helmut Schmidt's RNG device to test for precognition and psychokinesis.
Precognition Test - The Telephone To God (TTG), displays one of four colored LED light in a truly random sequence. Here the experimenter tries to guess the next color that will be lite. By correctly guessing the next color to be displayed, statistically greater than chance (one in four) alone would account for then experimenters show precognition.
Psychokinesis (PK) - Influence of the Mind Over Machine: Helmut Schmidt PK experiments in the 1960's followed this procedure. The subject tries to make one color come out greater than what would be allowed by chance. If that color id outputted by the device statistically greater than chance would account for that the experimenter can show PK.
PEAR is an acronym for the Princeton Engineering Anomalies Research. This interpret group of people led by Robert G. Jahn studied the mind influencing the behavior of machines, and proved a statistically correlation.
Global Consciousness Project - Local Egg - Dr. Dean Radin scientist and author has created a global network of random number generators (he named "eggs") which at times show statistical anomalies. A statistical anomaly is when the random numbers generated are a little less than random. This is expected to happen when large national or global events occur. For instance, 3 hours before the first jet hit during 9-11 the global network of eggs became a little less random indicating that the generators were picking up "a giant wave of consciousness," he said.
Dean Radin can explain the global consciousness project far more eloquently than I, here is a link to a Youtube video.
The TTG, outputs the random number produces through a TTL serial port that can be read by a computer. This number can be stored and analyzed statistically by the PC computer turning the TTG into a local egg.
Random Number Generator (RNG) - Our TTG can generate truly random numbers. You may question the need for random numbers. True random numbers are useful for data encryption (cryptography), statistical mechanics, probability, gaming, neural networks and disorder systems, to name a few.
Mood Light: The randomly changing colors from the lamp are a soothing. You may consider the randomly changing colors as an example of God talking but no one is listening.
"Radioactivity Detector" The TTG circuit may be also be used as a nuclear bomb/fallout radioactivity detector. If the Led's start flashing at a greater rate of two changes per minute for any length of time, you may be experiencing higher than normal radioactivity in the area.
How Random Numbers are Generated:
The way the random number generator operates is simple to understand. However, its fundamental function is best described using a mechanical analogy. Imagine if you will a sequence of numbers painted on a revolving wheel. A pointer is fixed on the outside of the wheel pointing to the number at the top of the wheel. The wheel is set into motion, spinning very rapidly. Then at any given random moment the wheel is instantly stopped. The number under the pointer becomes our random number. Once read, the wheel is set back into motion.
The microcontroller program follows pretty close to the mechanically analog. The microcontroller spins the sequence of numbers; one thought four internally, in a for-next loop. The random point in time when the sequence of numbers is instantly stopped is generated by the detection of a radioactive particle by the tiny built-in geiger counter. The number is read, displayed via LEDs and sent out serially on the TTL port , if one wishes to perform other random number generator (RNG) experiments.
Please note: this video shows the Telephone To God Phone with radioactive element nearby to induce faster random number generation. When used under normal conditions, the TTG Phone will generally produce about 1 to 2 random numbers (color changes) a minute.

Step1:
We begin building the Telephone to God with the circuit. There are a few unique components to the electrical circuit. The first component is a miniature Geiger counter tube. The second is a mini-step up transformer. In addition a pre-programed 16F84 microcontroller is also available for this project. These components may be purchased from Images Scientific Instruments, http://www.imagesco.com/psi/esp.html
The hex file for the microcontroller is available for those you can program the 16F84 themselves.
The circuit schematic is shown in the illustrations. The 4049 Hex Inverting Buffer is set up as a square wave generator. The power MOSFET IRF830 switches the current on and off to the primary windings of the mini step up transformer. The output of the transformer is fed to a voltage-doubler consisting of two high voltage diodes D2 and D3 and two high voltage capacitors C4 and C5.
The high voltage output from this stage is regulated to 400 volts by using two zener diodes in series (D10 and D11).
The 400 volts regulated output connects to the anode of the miniature GM tube through a 4.7 mega-ohm current limiting resistor.
The cathode of the tube is made from wrapping a small quantity of copper foil tape around the body of the miniature GM tube. A 470K-ohm resistor is soldered to the end of the copper foil and to ground. A 5.1V zener diode is placed across the 470K-ohm resistor to limit the pulse output to 5.1 V. The output pulse is fed to the base of the 2N3904 transistor to buffer the pulse. The pulse from the 2N3904 passes through two inverting gates to the interrupt pin on the 16F84 microcontroller.
The microcontroller generates a random number between 1 and 4 each time it receives a pulse from the Geiger counter. That number is used to light one of the four LED colors. In the even that the same random number repeats, for instances the random number generator produces 2 then 2 again. The LED light will momentarily blink off before the second number is displayed.
The circuit is assembled on a 2" x 6" prototyping printed circuit board from Radio Shack pn#276-170. The LED display is also built on a cut off portion of the same type of prototyping pc board.
The LED display is built on a second prototyping circuit board. There are two LEDs in parallel. One is position on each side of the circuit board. The LED display board is attached to the main board using a one foot length of PS-2 cable.
