The original channel on darkmyst remains more of a practitioner’s channel, attracting those with experience in various forms of energy work and magick. The new channel on dalnet is aimed more at those who are entirely new to psionics.

Basic Energy Management – by Innerfire
Instead of dealing with constructs like most of energy manipulation, energy management deals with moving, generating, and general efficiency of how the body uses its energy.

Explains how these techniques can be applied to charging, one’s aura/energy field, ambient energy, and energy efficiency/conservation when making constructs and doing psychokinesis.

Did you experience objects that repeatedly moved on their own with no apparent explanation? – by Christopher Laursen
“If so, historian Christopher Laursen would like to hear from you. This research focuses on these types of experiences that occurred between 1945 and 1990. The movement of objects on their own should have taken place repeated over a period of time, for example, a few days, weeks, or months, but then have stopped moving on their own at some point. Please send an e-mail or letter describing in detail what happened to you, noting where and when it happened as well. Your experience may add to the historical knowledge of this phenomenon. Your experiences will only be included in this research upon the completion of a consent form and questionnaire that you can complete by e-mail or regular mail. If you wish, you may remain anonymous in the research.
… This research project will continue until the beginning of 2014 and is part of his doctoral research in the Department of History at the University of British Columbia. He is also interested in hearing of experiences before 1945 and after 1990 from any part of the world.”
