4-Tuple

A "4-tuple" is a visual representation of a person’s experience at any point in time simplified and broken down from our representational systems of experience, and knowledge of it's workings are very important for anyone studying hypnosis, especially whose interested in creating strong hypnotic anchors or points of association. As such, it is composed of the primary senses since it is the senses, which provide for our representation of experience, and is demonstrated in written form as such:

<V, K, At, O/G>. where
V= visual
K= kinesthetic
At = auditory tonal
O/G = olfactory/gustatory

The addition of e, and i subscripts to the above representation are used to further define whether that portion of the persons experience is either an externally ( e ), or internally ( i ) generated piece of the ongoing experience. For example; the experience of sitting down to dinner in a fancy Italian restaurant would be as follows;

Ve = the look of the restaurant, the people, tables, chairs, and different foods being served.
Ke = the sensations of the chair, temperature of the room, and whatever you might touch.
Ate = the sound of people talking, possibly the sound of ambient music playing, etc.
O/Ge = the smell of different foods being served including your own, and the flavor of your own meal.

On the other hand, if I were to simply ask you to vividly imagine... the setting of being in your favorite restaurant, and remember the sensations you felt, as you hear that conversation ...you had with someone special, while the aroma of dinner slowly drifting ...into the room ...making your tummy grumble with hunger, and finally...the flavor... that first mouthful... your mouth watering with anticipation... as your meal was presented, your experiential representation would look similar to that above, but would contain the subscript of “i”, for your internally generated experience, and would look like;

<Vi,Ki,Ati,Oi/Gi>

The usefulness of the above distinction to the hypnotist, is that in knowing that the experience of trance and its depth is strongly governed by a subjects limited foci of attention, primarily internally generated attention, the hypnotist can then lead a person through the different forms of hypnotic communication into internally generated experiences.
As human beings we are constantly fluctuating between both external and internally governed stimuli in our everyday transactions, in that when we hear, see, smell, or feel something, it does cause us to have some internal type of association. This internal association might be the same type of experience, whereas, seeing someone might bring a visual memory, of when you last saw the person, or possibly, generate an internally generated experience with another of the senses, such as, a “feeling” that you might have to this person.

The hypnotist, who is wise to this natural hypnotic phenomenon in people, can artistically use his abilities to guide a person into the state of hypnosis, maintain the experience and deepen it as desired.

Below we have a visual demonstration of the transition from the conscious state to trance state;

<Ve, Ke, Ate, O/Ge> ? <Vi, Ki, Ate, O/Ge> ? <Vi, Ki, Ati, O/Gi>

This representation shows that initially a subject begins with all portions of her experience being external, then portions of the experience being internal, demonstrating the lead into the state of hypnosis, not necessarily as shown, because it could very well be that one of the other portions of the experience are being internally generated, then finally leading to a deeper state of hypnosis in which all portions of her experience are internally generated demonstrating the actual trance experience.

Language is represented with the abbreviation Ad; in which Ad is “auditory digital (language)”, shown within the 4-tuple as;

Ad <V, K, At, O/G>

This representation is also referred to as a complex equivalent, in that every word has a specific meaning to each individual, and therefore relates to associations of one or more "4-tuples" of meaning.

Language has been distinctly represented from the "4-tuple" because it is of a different logical level of experience. Due to the variability of personal experience and manners of self expression, people have the ability and tendency to generalize, distort, negate, and tense with language. So language can be represented as a "4-tuple", through the persons elaboration of her experience, but a particular dictionary type reference, will not suffice for the persons actual experience. In essence we all experience things in different ways due to our previous learnings in life.

Language can be useful to the hypnotist, in that information can be gathered from his subject about the relative meanings of what is desired or understood, in order to better guide the person to the desired outcome using hypnosis. Furthermore, there are certain words within language which have more generalized meaning/s, and overall understanding/s, as well as wordings which are rather vague and carry many possible associations. The artful use of hypnotic language can be used to direct a person specifically, yet also be used to guide a person to just go inside, and internally generate a representation which is most suitable for the persons experience.
